"(Greg Carroll) was one of those guys you say is too good for this world. And he died doing me a favour. I don't know what to say. He further made 1986 the most paradoxical year of our lives. That's why the desert attracted me as an image. That year was really a desert for us. It was a terrible time...death is a real cold shower...it's followed me around since I was a kid and I don't want to see any more of it." - Bono, Uncut 1987
