    Yes, but he winds up right-wing people, Daily Mail and Torygraph readers so I'm inclined to give him some slack.

    What do you find annoying about him?
    I'm more annoyed with my Sky HD box, the picture is about 2 seconds in front of the sound.

    I wish he wouldn't lecture the world about spending money on the third world and then run his companies in nations that levy low rates of tax.

    2. Two faced. Hails non-violent revolution on the one hand....check his fuddled ill conceived ideas about North Korea for the rest.
    Shut up play your guitar, make an effort to find what you were looking for and wind you neck in

    What's the difference between God & Bono? God won't be wandering around Glastonbury festival thinking he's Bono.

    I remember seeing him play the thing back in the days of Live Aid and here he is still trying to find the notes he was looking for.
    But, yes The Hedge is a better guitar player, but still not a patch on Rory Gallagher. Or that fella from the Wombles, who incidentally did more for the environment that U2 have ever done

    Not true - Bono is quite generous on the giving front. 
  • I did like I Will Follow, though:


    You lot COULD be prejudice due to being youngsters. I am 49 and I bought Boy when it first come out in 1980. So - try this:

    If you walk away, walk away, walk away, walk away;

    I will............................

    he is the andrew ridgley of the band - i.e. they don't plug his guitar in, think he can sing a bit tho ;) unlike his wham counterpart, not really sure what he actuall did do, dance and look pretty perhaps?
