[Dixielandjazz] Holding Your Audience Spell Bound

[Robert S. Ringwald]

U2 concert

At a U2 concert in Glasgow, Bono asked the audience for some quiet.

Then, in the silence, he started to slowly clap his hands, once every 3 
seconds.
Holding the audience spellbound, he said softly into the microphone,

"Every time I clap my hands, a child in Africa dies."

A voice near the front pierced the silence; Well, stop freakin' doin' it 
then."
