Bono on the rooftops

Just writing this because it all looks a bit quite in here. That’s more than can be said for my workplace.
For one day only – and the public have been queuing round the block – we have U2 playing on the roof of one of our buildings to promote their new album. This is good for the radio shows they’re playing for. But, their PA is set up directly opposite our building in which we produce two channels of TV News.
So one of the channels has moved its bulletins out of one of the studios on that side of the building lest our puzzled viewers find their news being shouted by Bono - and the other channel is taking part of the gig live into a conveniently placed Rock segment. My part in this is helping get the live gig into the rock segment.
UPDATE: much later it went pretty well the good people of Iran and Afghanistan had a first (possibly) bite of U2 live - phew – thus is history made:)
