TFI Friday1996

Host:
You know when you were little? When you were ickle? When you started together, right? Was it a bedroom, garage? Where did it start? Where did you start actually strumming those tunes?

Bono:
I'm still ickle.

Host:
I know you're still ickle.

Bono:
The stage is but a platform shoe, Chris.

Host:
But where was the first platform shoe?

Bono:
Larry's kitchen. Fifteen or sixteen years ickle.

Host:
Ok, so from Larry's kitchen to here tonight, what happened in between?

Bono:
Megalomania. No. Actually, no. Grace, good fortune, blessings. Lots of things. We're just very, very lucky that we were mates before we were in a band and that we were in a band before we could play. You know what I mean? That was that whole punk thing. We actually joined a band before we could play. What makes a great rock and roll band is something not about just music. It's all kinds of things. And the fact that we're all four equal people.
