Interesting Things Happen When U2 Plays NYC. See?

August 2, 2015 Alan Cross 0 Comments 0 min read

A number of guests dropped in on U2 during their stint at Madison Square Garden, including Bill and Hillary Clinton, Paul Simon and Bruce Springsteen. Then there was Melissa, the woman who called 911 when Bono had his horrific bike accident in Central Park last November. The band invited her onstage the other night as a way of thanking her for the assistance.

That’s when things went a little…awry.

Probably not the best approach, huh Melissa? (Via Tom and Newstalk)
