Bono Joins Mile High Club

19 Jul 2005
Take Me Higher! Listen to this interview with Bono... while he is flying Vertigo Air to the first Dutch show. Bizarre or what ?

On Wednesday Dutch radio station Yorin FM broadcast one of the strangest interviews yet with Bono. The interviewer was a member of Flight Control at Schippol Airport in Amsterdam and Bono was flying Vertigo Air up from Nice for the first Dutch show.

'Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away...' sings Bono, clearly not bothered at his latest multi-tasking exercise. 'From the south of France to Amsterdam, there's no place we'd rather fly.'

Needs to be heard to be believed. Listen in here.
