Someone suggested that anyone brought onstage by U2 has to be
arrogant... Reminds me of a joke I'd like to share with you foax:
Kurt Cobain is being shown around heaven when in the corner he sees
this tall dude in a black skin-tight leather cowboy suit with
wrap-around shades smoking a long cigarillo. "Gee," says Kurt, "I
didn't know Bono was dead."
"He's not," says the Angel who's his tour guide. "That's Jesus
Christ. He likes to think he's Bono."

"Living inside the system is like driving across
the countryside in a bus driven by a maniac bent
on suicide."
- Thomas Pynchon, "Gravity's Rainbow"
