Change each 'you' to 'he' and adjust the verbs to match. What do you get?
He asked Bono what had been the moment when finally he had said he is an Irish rocker but he is also now fully engaged in that topic.
That's a bit wordy. Try this:
He asked Bono exactly when he had finally said he was an Irish rocker, but was also now fully engaged in that topic.
He asked Bono exactly when he had finally said he was an Irish rocker, but was also now fully engaged in that topic.
