Bono taking a quiet break at the Point Depot in Dublin back in 1988. Taken while the band was rehearsing in their hometown during the Rattle and Hum era, this shot catches Bono sitting on the floor with an archtop acoustic guitar surrounded by tour gear.

Nelson Mandela was born this day on July 18, 1918. If still alive, he would be 108 years old today.
Raised a Methodist, Mandela maintained a personal faith throughout his life, though was not overtly religious in public life.
Mandela’s fight against apartheid profoundly influenced Bono, starting with “Silver and Gold,” written for the 1985 Artists United Against Apartheid album. Mandela was imprisoned at the time, serving his 1962 to 1990 sentence.
🎥 Bono explains the song’s origins in Phil Joanou’s classic film “Rattle and Hum”
