[Desire ends] Bono: "Desire... greed... lust... deceit... vanity – all the essentials for the showman. And of course... a licence to... just... look in the mirror." [approaches iPad on a stand] "Ooh! Very revealing." [his "reflection" is shown on the big screen, with a devilish face superimposed over his own image] Crowd: [whoops, laughter and applause] MacPhisto: [admiringly] "Oh! Please allow me to introduce myself. I'm a man of wealth and taste. I've been around for many a long year... stole many a man's soul to waste." Crowd: [cheer] MacPhisto: "I was there in Charlottesville, when the KKK Sieg Heiled together!" [gives Nazi salute] Crowd: [boo] MacPhisto: "Made damn sure the President's hands were full with 'Stormy' weather." Crowd: [laughter and applause] MacPhisto: [evil chuckle] "Oh, you. Pleased to meet you. Hope you guess my name." [pause] "My name's actually Mr MacPhisto..." Crowd: [cheer] MacPhisto: "...but sometimes, I pretend to be Mick Jagger." [struts camply across the e-stage] Crowd: [applause] MacPhisto: "Oh, San Jose. It's when you don't believe that I exist – that's when I do my best work. Ahhh." [Acrobat begins] MacPhisto: "Don't believe what you hear. Don't believe what you see. If you just close your eyes, you can feel... the enemyyy! ENEMYYY! Haaa!" [raises his arms aloft] |
