    2) I could probably name a thousand people who would've done worse regarding the performance.

    Regarding the first point actually, he acted like an even bigger knob when he was The Fly during the Zoo TV tour. Maybe he was trying to bring that back a little in the video by acting all hard and sliding a chair across the room? Who cares? Is there any need to be saying "Oh Bono, please don't slide a chair across the room then proceed to bend over in the corner whilst playing guitar, the public will think you're a fool."? Still, would've been totally epic if he stood there like a lamp post.


    Finally someone with some sense.

    The guy is a PERFORMER people. He's a SHOWMAN. This is what he's done since the beginning. Deal with it. No one likes to hear people complaining.
  2. Tim hit the nail on the head, then Andy clarified it. The man is the lead singer - he's allowed to act like a knob.
  3. At least he's wearing a shirt in this version.

    What's with rock starts not wearing shirts under jackets in the late-80s and early-90s?


  4. No, he doesn't.
    Perhaps you should have a global tour and call him from the stage during your performances to tell him personally. That will make him understand.

    Aw, wait a second, at least he was HOT without a shirt with the jacket in '91 - 'The Fly' was one of the first videos I ever saw. Now if Bono tried that in 2011....um....not good.

    You can say whatever you want.

    I'm just saying that if Bono were to criticize someone, he would take a television station around the world and call people during his concerts.
  8. Love your gif by the way
  9. Sidenote:
    Chris 'Wanker' Martin is moving like that every performance.
  10. "Crono" was never actually young, he always looked like 30+
    Besides at the same age that he started Coldplay, Bono had already made four albums.
    Even during R&H Bono (28) still looked young, that's when "Crono"/Wanker made X&Y.

    At 31 Bono had already done everything up to and including Achtung Baby. I think you're allowed a bit of arrogance, when you've recorded (your own!) songs with Dylan, Orbison, the Stones, Robbie Robertson, Sinatra, Tina Turner and when you can consider Miles Davis (!), Springsteen, G'nR and Metallica fans of your music.

    In Bono's own words: At sixteen you think you can take on the world...and sometimes you're right
  11. Hi all, sorry if this has been covered before and i have not been looking in the right spot but are there iTunes album covers for all the additional CDs?
    Would like to get them if they are available. Thanks in advance!
