I'm out with friends last night and hear this story: a buddy who happens to be in Scotland goes to see U2 play a show there. He's pretty close to the stage. A song finishes. Bono shushes the audience, raises his arms and slowly and powerfully claps his hands in a slow beat. The entire stadium goes quiet.

CLAP.

CLAP.

He steps forward to the mike. Says with all of his Bono-conviction... "Every time I clap my hands a child dies in Africa".

Without skipping a beat, a Scottish guy yells out "WELL THEN STOP CLAPPING!"
