U2's Bono has emergency back surgery in Germany
19 mins ago

BERLIN – The manager of U2 says that frontman Bono has undergone emergency back surgery in a Munich hospital after he was injured while preparing for the group's tour.

The 50 year old, whose real name is Paul Hewson, is under the care of neurosurgeon Dr. Joerg Tonn and Dr. Hans-Wilhelm Mueller-Wohlfahrt, according to a statement on U2's website.

Mueller-Wohlfahrt could not be reached for comment.

Band manager Paul McGuinness, in an MP3 posted on the website, said Friday that because of the injury, the band's "360-Degree" June 3 show in Salt Lake City, Utah, has been postponed. It was not immediately clear if other dates also were canceled.

McGuinness says, "We hope to get things resolved as soon as possible."

Love ya Beshad, but damn, that was a lame comment... especially when Kanye West is still walking around.... ;)

I was going to post "Wow, so Bono IS human after all???"

"What's going on" is these geezers are still trying to use their bodies as if they were in their 20s.

well if I was gonna make a list Bono would NOT be on the top of that list,, Kanye and most other rappers would be first.....
Just between Dio & Bono, Id choose Bono to go first.......

Knowing you my friend, if you could trade Bono to get Lennon back, I know you would in a heartbeat! :wink:

One tasteless joke that I heard years ago... I THINK it was Dennis Leary:

"I can't believe that John Lennon was killed.... Jesus Christ, Yoko was like, 3 feet away, you couldn't have just turned the gun a few feet????"

I don't usually joke about this subject. Sorry John!

Hey Nora! I'm right behind the 50 Mark so I get it!


I'm a sicko :shock: ...I find this^^^ funny!!

Best wishes to Bono for a speedy recovery!! :wink:

BTW~ This>>>>"Love ya Beshad, but damn, that was a lame comment... especially when Kanye West is still walking around" ...was also funny ...to me!! :twisted:

They could kneecap Bono as far as I'm concerned.

Sorry guys, I'll take 'Streets Have No Name' over 'Last In Line' any day. Dio is good, but there's a reason he wasn't packing out stadiums and Bono still is.

:lol:

Yeah and in California there is a larger group of people standing in line for free money then who are working to pay into it. So does that mean it's better to be a part of the bigger group of people?
