![Adrian Boot captured this iconic image of Bono at a live show in London in the late 1980s. Boot told NME: “I gave this image to U2's people along with some other live shots and then I just sped off to Africa for quite a long time. When I came back they'd used it on an album sleeve [‘Rattle And Hum’] but re-staged the image in a studio. It's slightly different as Bono isn’t wearing a hat.” Pic: Urbanimage.tv/Adrian Boot](http://akamai-static.nme.com/images/gallery/ISLAND_U2_IX_093.jpg)
