U2 frontman Bono penned a super-long A to Z-type ode to 2014, in which he admitted that he may never again be able to play guitar due to serious injuries sustained from a bicycle crash in November.
Before entering the 5,000-plus-word U2.com blog post, the musician warns readers: “This is too long. You should not have time to read this. If you do get to the end of it then you are probably on the same painkillers as me.”
Then he gets after it.
“I broke my hand, my shoulder, my elbow and my face but the real injury this year was to my Irish pride as it was discovered that under my tracksuit I was wearing yellow and black Lycra cycling shorts,” Bono opened section “I IS FOR IRISH PRIDE.”
