For Heidi Dutton:

Bono did appear in New Order's film called "New Order Story." It is a
collection of the band's popular video singles from 1985-1993. The
video's release also coincided with New Order's release of their
"Republic" album in 1993 in the UK and the US. Bono appeared as "the
ZooKeeper" equipped with wrap-around shades reminiscent of The Fly
persona. Plus, the camera was spinning around as he was interviewing
himself that reminded me of the usual stunt he did during Edge's guitar
solo during Even Better than the Real Thing of the ZOO TV Tour. Bono
talked about how the late Ian Curtis (JOY Division's lead singer) was a
major influence for U2 and somehow his musical and spiritual legacy
still continues with NEW ORDER....

That's all,

Alfred

"Some people have asked, 'would U2 do much better than JOY DIVISION? I
say, Yeah! MUCH BETTER!!!!!"
