I posted in general chat originally, but thought it would warrant it's own discussion so have started this. Here's what I posted:-
Originally posted by djrlewis[..] - how long has Bono been using teleprompter/autocue??
I was watching the BA Vertigo DVD last night and it's clearly visible. At first I thought it was just for his speeches and the Argentinian he attempts, but then noticed it scrolling lyrics during One. WOWY and OOTS at the very least. Also noticed him looking at it quite a lot.
I understand it's better than forgetting lyrics but he never used to use one that I can see (Paris DVD for example) and doesn't it cut down on improvisation and 'feel' in the song (esp songs like WOWY - I compared the performance with Paris immediately after and the difference was staggering!!).
Any comments for me on this one?
So; are there any comments!?
