You can’t hide anything, Part 3: U2

Following on from previous entries, U2 are now the subject of a scandalous lack of privacy when their new album, No Line on the Horizon, was filched by a tourist in the South of France.   

The tourist happened to be walking past Bono's house just as Bono stuck the demo cuts on the iPod, stuck up the volume to 100% and rocked the house.   The happy-go-lucky bozo walking by, heard the music and recognised the band but not the tracks ... so he recorded them and stuck the recording on YouTube (sound has been disabled since).

Whoops.
