Jeez.  The first 4 requests are for "Don't Dream It's Over".  Nevermind it's the wrong year...    ::)

Sadly, it's "legal" in '86 AND '87. But yeah, the gushing on FB -- as if they haven't heard the song in YEARS, or something... sheesh.

Love that "minus 1" has become a "thing" -- bless you Swellegant Tim!

Vaillancourt Fountain / D.A. Will Not Charge U2 Star in GraffitiCase
by Robert Popp 
FRIDAY 11/20/1987

The uproar over the graffiti spray painting of the Vaillancourt Fountain by an Irish rock star ended quietly yesterday, without criminal charges.

San Francisco District Attorney Arlo Smith said there was no malicious intent on the part of U2 lead singer Bono Hewson. The slogan "Stop the Traffic, Rock and Roll" has been cleaned off and Hewson has apologized, Smith said.

"Given these facts, " Smith said, "we would decline to charge anybody, under the same circumstances."

Hewson, who suddenly whipped out the spray can during a free rock concert at Justin Herman Plaza on November 11, apologized when San Francisco Mayor Dianne Feinstein became irritated and suggested that he be prosecuted the same as any other graffiti vandal.

Feinstein could not be reached for comment yesterday.

At U2's two concerts in Oakland during the weekend, Hewson brought out artist Armand Vaillancourt, who designed the waterfront sculpture. Vaillancourt supported Hewson's spraying as a work of art.

Smith issued his decision yesterday along with a letter of apology he had received from Hewson.

"I am sincerely sorry if my actions caused any inconvenience to the citizens or law enforcement forces in the city, " Hewson wrote.

"I think San Francisco is one of the most beautiful cities U2 has ever been asked to play.

"I would never want to deface it. Spraying Vaillancourt sculpture was a mistake. I regret that, but it was not meant as a malicious act, " Hewson continued.

He added, "I would also hope that the real street artists of San Francisco will not suffer because of a scrawler like me."

Vaillancourt Fountain / D.A. Will Not Charge U2 Star in GraffitiCase
by Robert Popp 
FRIDAY 11/20/1987

The uproar over the graffiti spray painting of the Vaillancourt Fountain by an Irish rock star ended quietly yesterday, without criminal charges.

San Francisco District Attorney Arlo Smith said there was no malicious intent on the part of U2 lead singer Bono Hewson. The slogan "Stop the Traffic, Rock and Roll" has been cleaned off and Hewson has apologized, Smith said.

"Given these facts, " Smith said, "we would decline to charge anybody, under the same circumstances."

Hewson, who suddenly whipped out the spray can during a free rock concert at Justin Herman Plaza on November 11, apologized when San Francisco Mayor Dianne Feinstein became irritated and suggested that he be prosecuted the same as any other graffiti vandal.

Feinstein could not be reached for comment yesterday.

At U2's two concerts in Oakland during the weekend, Hewson brought out artist Armand Vaillancourt, who designed the waterfront sculpture. Vaillancourt supported Hewson's spraying as a work of art.

Smith issued his decision yesterday along with a letter of apology he had received from Hewson.

"I think San Francisco is one of the most beautiful cities U2 has ever been asked to play.

"I would never want to deface it. Spraying Vaillancourt sculpture was a mistake. I regret that, but it was not meant as a malicious act, " Hewson continued.

He added, "I would also hope that the real street artists of San Francisco will not suffer because of a scrawler like me."

I regret not going to the free concert.  WTF was I thinking?  Maybe it's because I nearly drowned in that fountain when I was 6 or 7.
