A friend of mine told me this story a while back, which I subsequently found on the Irish Times… just had to share it.
A guy and his girlfriend go to a fancy Dublin restaurant. They spy Bono and a friend at a table opposite.
When Bono nips to the toilet, they ask his friend if he’ll take a picture of them with Bono when he returns.
Friend takes picture.
They later ask for the bill. The waiter tells them it has already been covered.
“Did Bono pay for our meal?” they ask.
“No, his friend Bruce Springsteen paid for it.”
A great story! Leigh has Bono’s autograph, we’re hoping it may be worth something someday!
