Illuminati handshake?
Billionaire thumb bump?
A triangulated ‘finger graph’ depicting the ”Ireland-Holland-Other Place’ tax wheeze?
We may never know.

Ah, the company that avoids paying tax by being based in Ireland collaborating with the band that avoids paying tax by being based out of Ireland. Love it!
‘Tis a match made in tax haven.
Well, when you put it like that it just sounds so egregious.
Aw man. This is so Ballmer. We’re down with the kids! Wait for it, next is the iPrinter…
I’d be interested to know how many of these comments were sent from an Apple device.
Presumably the connection is that spending prolonged periods of time with the output of both organisations is a kind of Chinese torture.
Not a technology or music lover JEB ?
Love music. Always thought U2 sounded like wet shite. Never felt love for technology per se, but definitely dislike reported labour practices around apple. Mostly, love puns. Chinese torture was one.
Balance sheets and business meetings are so rock and roll, man….
Why does my heart feel so bad when I look at that picture?
Could be early signs of a cardiac defect.
All these typical upbeat comments whenever U2 is mentioned. Surely no begrudgery involved.

I feel sick. Hueeeeey!
There is so much wrong with this photo.
With this goes the last sliver of cred U2 had left (they didn’t have one but let’s just pretend they did).
Bono’s spare tyre is clearly visible.

His 55 or something. Remember to post us a picture of your washboard abs when you hit his age octo
Bono is older than Tim Cook. This seems remarkable without quite being interesting.
Bono. I would. I just would. Can’t explain it, don’t want to analyse it. but I would, in a heartbeat.
Kick him into a coma?
Nope. I’d ride him like I worked for the Pony Express.
With a sense of terror at being shot by Indians?
Ha.
The new album’s a goodun’…. Raised by Wolves is class
Bono is a pox
An i-pox

Didn’t one of them rapper lads do this with Samsung a while back? I mean free album, not finger triangle.
Finger triangle?
Is that what the young wans call it these days?
What’s Paul O’Grady doin’ there?
They’re making a giant A.
In case anyone didn’t know but really wanted to…
Cheers Apple. You’ve lavishly re-affirmed why I never buy your things. My money was on a Black Eyed Peas reunion, but U2 serve the same hilarious purpose.
Terrible people doing terrible things. Bono with all his “Africa needs our help” should surely realise that half the minerals involved in the iPhone 6 come from war torn countries IN Africa at a cost that is incalculable in both lives and destruction to habitats. the next time you see or hear this fat git spouting about the third world let him know. Also their music hasn’t been interesting or relevant since god was a child.
Sent from my iPhone
Look at him sporting a dashing chestnut hue. Bono’s a fupping dreamboat ! ; )
I hope Bono compared something to James Joyce, that always goes down well.
Or that he admires Tim as much as he does Enda
Now every time Bono clicks his fingers someone will buy an iPhone!
” […] trotting out aging Irish rockers after you’ve wowed the world with the first glimpse of the glorious Apple Watch? That’s not thinking different. That’s a pity-fupp for a band that’s lost its edge, and an unfortunate bum note for a company that’s rarely perceived as tone-deaf.”

Fair play to them. €100 straight up in album sales when revenue from music is falling.
Quality bit of business with one of the biggest companies in the world. Brilliant.
Obviously Larry Mullen Jnr has a painting in an attic somewhere. Adam looking well to…
