If Florence Has a Boner, Then Copenhagen has Bono



So, Jesse and are taking a self-guided walking tour of Copenhagen yesterday and we end up taking a quick detour to see some old-style buildings and then continue down the street. The street empties us into a large square where we see a large group of people standing. It didn´t look like there was a street performer or anything and it was odd since it was in front of a hotel, so we asked a guy what was going on. He said that the band U2 was performing that night in Copenhagen and the band was supposed to be coming out!

Well, Jesse and I thought that was pretty cool so we decided to hang around for a bit. To make a long story short, we ended up standing there for about 4 hours and totally got to meet Bono and 2 of the other members!! How cool is that? Not only that, but we got all 3 of them to sign our map of Copenhagen!!!! To say the least, we were a little bit star struck! Standing around waiting for U2 wasn´t quite what we had in mind for our first day of sightseeing in Denmark, but it was a total blast! We will post pictures when we can upload them, so you can see Bono´s cool sunglasses!
