U2 Dedicates Song to Anthony Bourdain During Apollo Theater Show
U2 This One's for Anthony Bourdain
Bono spoke for Anthony Bourdain's fans, friends and most likely his family too when he dedicated a song -- about another celebrity suicide -- to the beloved author and TV host.
U2 played an invitation-only show at the Apollo Theater Monday night and during the gig Bono addressed the deaths of Bourdain, Kate Spade and several other rock stars in the last year.

The band then launched into its 2000 hit, "Stuck in a Moment" ... which was originally written about INXS lead singer Michael Hutchence, who also hanged himself in 1997.
