This video is almost 20 years old so the quality is not that great but that's not why it's painful to watch. This is live coverage of the premiere of Rattle and Hum and this reporter interferes with the band until they get fed up...Bono grabs the mic and Adam Clayton tells him off.

  • The reporter is just plain stupid.

    Did he just say that "Stand By Me" is a John Lennon song?

    What a tool.

  • I love how he tries to buddy up with each guy:

    Larry: "I loved your piece in Graceland..."

    Edge: "The last time I saw you..."

    Adam: "The last time I interviewed you was in a hotel room..."

    He also asks answers: "So much has happened to U2 since The Unforgettable Fire..." THAT IS NOT A QUESTION!

    He also makes excuses for not getting them to talk:

    "Well, their getting still photographs right now"

    "Oh, well it's absolute wildness here, as you can see"

    Terrible reporter.

  • Phil Joanou is actually a midget, I didn't know that till I saw this footage.

  • Adam: Ehh we're trying to get some photos here ( Translation- get the fuck outa me face ya clown)

  • This reporter is hilarious, I love it! "It's unusual to see U2 standing still for photographs as well, because they tend to be a little more reclusive." Lol

  • It just seems like no one wants to talk to that guy?

  • "a whole mass of piranhas" - he's talking about himself! Too bad Bono gave the mic back. Would have been fun if he had just walked off with it. And, um "Stand by Me" is not a John Lennon song; he's just one of the many people who have covered it. Painful is right!

  • @gymnosophy well said.

  • That was RICHARD BLADE he hosted a few shows in the 80's

  • Bono...the Obama's tail...goodnight...

  • If that's classed as obnoxious then the people of Huntingdon where I live are satanic.
