7.9.1 Until Further Notice, All of the Following is FALSE (U2)
Nearly all of the following rumors have been posted on the Usenet within
the past 12 months. To save time,
bandwidth and, hopefully, kill rumors, what follows is a list of rumors
which are ALL FALSE.
- Bono is getting a divorce.
- Bono once had a cocaine habit the size of Alaska. [Ditto for Adam,
Edge, and Larry.]
- Bono had an affair with Christy Turlington (a model) / Stevie Nicks /
Winona Ryder / Maire ni Brennan (from
Clannad) / Kristen McMenamen (another model) / etc
- Edge has quit the band to start his own Christian music label.
- Larry and Anne have broken up.
- Anne is rarely seen in public because she is actually a space alien who
can only replicate human behavior for
limited periods of time.
- Larry IS Anne.
- On the band's first US tour, they brought a hundred pounds of wacky
weed with them on the plane.
- Bono pierced his ears himself using an upholtery needle Edge carelessly
left lying around
- During the ZooTV tour Bono was kidnapped in Japan by a nefarious cult
which subjected him to sensory
deprivation and hypnotized him to confuse the phrase "smile for the
camera" with "open wide for the dentist,"
hence the many photographs which cause one to admire his mollars. (Ok,
so I made this one up myself.)
Once more, the above rumors are ALL FALSE. Not one word of truth has
ever been linked to any of these
bone-headisms. Let's make them, "rarely asked questions."
