Bono, the lead singer of the band U2, is famous throughout the
entertainment industry for being more than just a little
self-righteous. He is
playing a U2 concert in Glasgow, Scotland when he asks the audience for
total
quiet.
Then in the silence, he starts to slowly clap his hands, once every few
seconds. Holding the audience in total silence, he says into the
microphone, "Every time I clap my hands, a child in Africa dies."
A voice with a broad Scottish accent, from near the front of the crowd,
pierces the silence... "Well, fucking stop doin' it then!"
