U2 dedicated a song to the late Anthony Bourdain during their New York show last night, June 11.
Bono ended the concert with a speech, saying:
“It’s hard to lose a friend and this band has been through that. And now this great storyteller, who I’m sure has stories he couldn’t tell us … So for Anthony Bourdain, and his friends and family, this is a song inspired by a great, great, great friend of ours. His name is Michael Hutchence.”
