Elksteine’s promo song leaked by U2 bassist

Bernard Elksteine continues to apparently build plans for a new Rebound Table Tennis League, having penned a new song - Volcano - and teaming up with Irish rockers U2 to record it.

The track however has been leaked online “accidentally” by U2 bassist, Adam Clayton. Clayton claimed he uploaded it to his private YouTube account to share with his daughter to “Show her how much Daddy has improved”. Listen to the full track at the link below.

The unusually Clayton-heavy track is believed to reflect the energetic nature of Elksteine’s new tournament, driven by high caliber table tennis equipment seized at a recent Milson’s Point raid.

Director and Rebound Table Tennis fan “The Big” Peter Jackson has analysed the song and noted a number of apparent references to Elksteine’s ex-wife Patricia’s new husband, Angus Featherlite-Blowingpam. Known to have an explosive temper, Elksteine often referred to the younger Angus as just a “tourist” in Maroochydore, the cradle of modern Rebound Table Tennis, hence lines like “Do you live here or is this a vacation” and “Something in you wants to blow”.

Jackson exclaimed “Blow... Blowingpam. All the anger of 7 years in exile is in there. The whole song’s a dig at his wife’s new fella”.

U2 lead singer Bono simply commented, “Adam’s fired... again”.

Asked why he chose to work with U2, Elksteine noted that Tina Turner wasn’t available. He also noted Clayton was a big fan of Rebound Table Tennis and was keen to see the sport grow in his homeland. “The Irish love bouncing anything off walls, especially over a Guinness”, Clayton commented from his local pub.
