Unsuspecting New York commuters stumbled up Bono, The Edge, Larry, Adam and Jimmy at the start of their work week.
You can't fault their commitment – U2 really want people to hear their music. Not content with their Songs Of Innocence automatic iTunes giveaway, the fab Dublin four took to New York's subways earlier this week in disguise (though not great disguise) to busk for the city's commuters.
You can see some of the Grand Central Station action, including a singalong of 'Angel Of Harlem', below. They were joined by Jimmy Fallon, with the whole thing being filmed for their upcoming Tonight Show appearance. Apparently that will also include Bono recreating his bike accident for comic effect. The band were forced to cancel a week of shows with Fallon following Bono's accident late last year. This Friday, they will be his sole guests for the evening.
