Bono saving "yuppies" in San Francisco
Please like my photo on Facebook so I can win a contest to be concert photographer for the Foo Fighters!
Took this photo when I was 16 at U2's free concert in San Francisco that was featured in Rattle & Hum movie during their Joshua Tree Tour in November 1987. Bono stared right at my camera which is why I chose this shot. In the movie they feature them playing "All Along The Watchtower" by Bob Dylan but in Black & White 16mm I believe. During this show Bono got in trouble with "the law" because he spray painted on a water fountain sculpture next to the stage "Rock n Roll stops the Traffic". He was referring to the double decker freeway behind the plaza of which traffic came to a complete standstill and people got out of their cars to watch the concert. This overpass was damaged during the great Quake of '89 and torn down. Was a major eye sore anyway!
