During a U2 concert in Glasgow, Scotland, Bono asked the audience for total quiet.

Then in the silence, he started to slowly clap his hands.

Once every few seconds.

Holding the audience in total silence, he said into the microphone

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

From the front of the crowd, a broad Scottish accent pierced the quiet:

"Well f#ckin' stop doin' it then ya evil b#stard!"

JAMES HETFIELD: It Is 'A Travesty' That MOTÖRHEAD Hasn't Been Inducted Into ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME

@TheMetalDog One of the things I love about metal is the respect that flows down the generations. Like, iconoclasm has its place, punk needed to happen etc etc etc, but still. The fact that Hetfield looks up to Lemmy the way that younger bands look up to him is pretty heartwarming.
