Ah, ok!
Può essere che i suoi collaboratori lo aiutino a scrivere... nel senso trascrivere il discorso? Attenendosi appunto ad un discorso "base" o agli ultimi, ecc. e seguendo le sue indicazioni (magari proprio delle frasi scritte di suo pugno), tenendo conto di alcuni punti "fermi" del discorso stesso, come l'apertura, la chiusura e i tempi.
In fondo anche la setlist viene "dattiloscritta"!
Alcune parti del discorso sono praticamente fisse, come ad esempio la frase di chiusura e l'apertura. Quest'ultima U2gigs la considera uno snippet; "Hall of Mirrors" nel caso di queste date europee, "Sympathy For The Devil" in America...

Nell'ultima data di Amburgo ha ripreso anche Sympathy For The Devil degli Stones!

È un'interessante "rivisitazione" (almeno per me), ad esempio: 

 

[...]

MacPhisto: "Please allow me to introduce myself. I'm a man of wealth and taste. I've been around for many a long year... drove many a man's soul... to waste."

Crowd: [whoops]

MacPhisto: "I was down in Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Chemnitz town – mm! – when the vandals of hope were put right. Nazi salutes and fireworks, resplendent on a summer night. Pleased to meet you!  Hope you guess my name."

Crowd: [whoops and whistles]

MacPhisto: "My name is MacPhisto, actually." [bows] "Enchanté."

[...]

 

La parte di testo originale di Sympathy For The Devil:

Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man's soul and faith

And I was 'round when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name [...]

 

Chemnitz... Argomento ripreso dalla prima data di Colonia dove, tra l'altro, in quell'occasione prendeva in giro anche sé stesso...

 

[...]

e la bandiera dell'Europa diventa sempre più simbolica...

 

fantastico!

Sicuramente!
Argomento "caldo", come già preannunciato all'apertura della leg europea

Crowd: [whoops and shouts]

MacPhisto: "And we don't like f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-- foreigners!"

Canadanne - che fa le trascrizioni - a tal proposito scrive:

 

Well, Bo-no, FEU2!" cackles MacPhisto, riffing on a certain T-shirt slogan.

Allora com'è stato vederlo dal vivo?

[Un,dos,tres....catorce]

Tanta roba

[sere sere]

Terrific

Ieri mi sono presa anche la maglietta!

[lince]

venerdi dopo questo discorso io Bono lo avrei voluto abbracciare davvero forte.

(più forte di quanto farei sempre, intendo )

[sere sere]

È fantastico!!
Cosa dice, come lo dice...
Battute, mimica...
Quel cappello e il trucco...
Carisma e fascino intatto e innato.
