Dublin’s Today FM aired the interview between the late Tony Fenton and Bono, which took place last January at the Dublin home Bono. During the interview, Bono admitted that his favorite tour was PopMart and stated that he was interested in writing a book about the psychology of being an artist. Tony and Bono reminisced about their youth in […]

Originally, for the next lyrics post, I was going to cover Where The Streets Have No Name. But when I woke up the day before Easter, I was up too early and couldn’t get back to sleep, so I checked U2 Radio just for the heck of it and saw a post on Until The […]

Know Your Bonoisms, Part 24: Bono the Broheim
It’s been awhile since I’ve done a Bonoism, and it’s high time I did one about Bono just being a dude (or…bloak? Or is that just an English thing?) When he’s not lobbying for better retroviral drugs in Africa, gravely injuring himself or attending a seemingly endless string of weddings and funerals all over Europe, […]
Read MoreAli…Stop the Madness!
According to Ali, Bono is “On the mend” and will be ready for the tour opener in two months. In all seriousness, don’t we have to take Ali’s word with a grain of salt? I’m all for the power of positive thinking and do believe that Bono will be ready, but do you really believe […]

Ali Hewson has been active this week in raising awareness for both the poverty of women around the world and for Chernobyl Children International (CCI). While at the events she was asked how Bono, was doing after his bike spill back in November in New York City. “He’s doing great, he really is. He’s got another […]
Read MoreBono Draws His Line!
Word on the street from U2’s PR machine a week ago was that Bono was NOT going to show up to the 50 anniversary of the infamous march that began in Selma, Alabama. Anybody who thinks Bono was not going to the march because he’s still too injured from his bike riding incident, raise your […]
Read MoreU2’s Face Lift?
What’s in worse physical shape at this moment, Bono or the Joshua Tree? The latest destruction to the Joshua Tree being uprooted is despicable….. but it’s gotta be Bono, right? I mean, have you seen Bono lately? Sure, he looks great not having his humerous hanging out of his ear, but have you looked closely […]
Read MoreWho the Heck is this, Roger Johnson?
1st Bono pretended to play Jesus to the lepers in our head, then Judas…..now….ROGER JOHNSON! This cat & mouse game that Bono plays with his fan base is both sinister and diabolical all rolled up into one random Twitter account and I LOVE IT. I can’t get enough, I won’t get enough. Is it true […]
Read MoreKnow Your Bonoisms, Part 22: Bono’s Gratitude
One of my favorite Bono speeches is the monologue during the bridge of “Out of Control” at Slane Castle. You know it – the one that starts with, “Father…I need a lend of 500 pounds. Because we’re going to go over to London, and we’re going to score ourselves a record deal.” Heck, let’s not […]
Read MoreIs Bono A Hero?
As I sit here in the afterglow of a Superbowl win by the New England Patriots, my seven year old son stated that Tom Brady was a hero of his. I thought that maybe he was high on Tom Brady because of their 4th SuperBowl win and decided to pursue the conversation. When I asked […]
