Bono requires surgery after cycling accident, U2 cancel Tonight Show residency
By Andy Malt | Published on Tuesday 18 November 2014
U2 have been forced to cancel their week-long residency on America’s ‘The Tonight Show’, which was due to take place this week, after Bono fell off his bike in New York’s Central Park on Sunday, requiring surgery.
In a message posted on their website, the other members of U2 told fans: “It looks like we will have to do our ‘Tonight Show’ residency another time – we’re one man down. Bono has injured his arm in a cycling spill in Central Park and requires some surgery to repair it. We’re sure he’ll make a full recovery soon, so we’ll be back! Much thanks to Jimmy Fallon and everyone at the show for their understanding”.
This latest incident comes just days after a door fell off the singer’s private jet while flying from Dublin to Berlin last week. All of which sounds like the plot of the worst ‘Final Destination’ movie yet.
