LOL someone over on U2tours has claimed Lila's daughter was staged....

"The little girl that Bono plucked from the front pit during Sunday Bloody Sunday was staged as anyone down in front would have noticed that a security guard was carrying her down the security aisle during Love & Peace & placed her in the spot where Bono pulled her up from the audience."

actually the whole review was pretty damn negative

ramblin rose · 12-18-2006, 05:27 PM

From what I heard it kind of was staged, if that's what you want to call it. But that doesn't mean she wasn't chosen by the U2 team to go up or that Bono didn't let John know that's who he wanted to go up.

KUEFC09U2 · 12-18-2006, 05:36 PM

ye of course the routine is/was staged, but in the review he is pretty much suggesting that lila's daughter was a plant.

thats how i am reading it anyway

That's pretty damned ridiculous.

Gosh, how could Bono ever find anyone willing to come onstage if he didn't have the people pre-arranged????

Lila64 · 12-18-2006, 09:57 PM

Staged?

She didn't know she was going to be on stage until John came and asked her if she wanted to right after Love & Peace Or Else. And then he pulled her over the rail, walked her to the stage, gave her instructions (like what would happen once she was pulled up) and waited til Bono came to her.

And just like Rosa said, either Bono chose her or his people did. But Bono did point to Maddy during Angel of Harlem on the b-stage. That's what I think might have been the indication that she might be the lucky girl that night.

Where did you see that anyway? Was that in someone's comments? (nevermind, found him/her)

WHY is it so hard for some people to just let others enjoy their moments??? Why do they always gotta bring a sista down??

Instead of whining about it, they should just start pumping out the kids now, and maybe they'll be the lucky ones next tour.

Lila64 · 12-18-2006, 10:14 PM

High5's Mia!

JCOSTER · 12-18-2006, 10:24 PM

I have read and heard many many times that Bono will see someone in the audience and motion to security to bring them up. It could be in the beginning of the song or many songs before. But, I have heard as soon as he makes a decision he lets security know.

He also trusts Big Johns judgement on who to bring on stage.

Leave it alone peoples.

randhail · 12-18-2006, 11:32 PM

I'm upset that I have no chance of ever being brought up on stage for the following reasons:

1. I'm older than 13
2. I have a penis
3. I have no musical talent whatsoever
4. I'm just bitter because I've been studying biochemistry for the past 11 hours.

Not necessarily, you can...

1) Dress like Elvis
2) Dress like Santa
3) Get many U2-related tattoos on your body

See, not impossible.
