Renton 17744 Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Semi-boast U2 related posting. At university I had a year being responsible for booking bands to appear. I booked U2 as part of what was their first tour of England I cant really remember much about it, but we did all go the pub beforehand and they seemed a decnt bunch of lads then. Mind you we were all about twenty years old so Bono hadnt really developed his ridiculous persona at that stage 179939[/snapback] jealous tbh.. 179942[/snapback] Get yourself some photos of Bongo and The Wedge. That'll make you feel better. 179949[/snapback] Even better, become Bongo and Wedge's groupy beeyitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alex Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I reckon he looks like Bono in the way Lynne's mate in Alan Partridge did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toonraider 0 Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 These lot have no musical taste Gina Here's ZU2's site, the singer looks alittle like Bono on stage, but thats because he sounds like him and has his mannerisms. http://www.zyworld.com/zu2/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'One' is my all time favourite U2 track. How did 'sometimes you cant make it on your own' sound? Cos I'd imagine thats a tough vocally. I heard Bono sing it live....WOW Awesome!!!

Not too palatial, but had a good pool table and a good pint. The aussie barman is my long-lost twin from Cairns. We were separated at birth. Oh, and he's not as good looking as me!
