U2's Bono Injured In NYC Cycling Accident

U2 have had to cancel their week-long residency on a US television show after Bono was injured while cycling in New York's Central Park.

The Irish band was scheduled to perform on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon from Monday to Friday.

The band helped Fallon launch the late-night show in February as his first musical guest.

"It looks like we will have to do our Tonight Show residency another time - we're one man down," the band said on its website in a message signed by members The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr.

Bono, 54, "has injured his arm in a cycling spill in Central Park and requires some surgery to repair it. We're sure he'll make a full recovery soon, so we'll be back!" the band said.

The website did not give details about the incident or the injury.

Has anyone listened to their new album?

What are your thoughts on them giving it away on iTunes? Was it good to get something for free? Or was it annoying to have an album added to your collection (that you may not have wanted) without your consent?
