Bono, the lead singer of the band, U2, is famous throughout the
entertainment industry for being more than just a little self-righteous.
At a recent U2 concert in Glasgow, Scotland, he asked the audience for
total quiet.

Then, in the silence, he started to slowly clap his
hands,once every few seconds. Holding the audience in total
silence, he said into the microphone,
"Every time I clap my hands, a child in Africa
dies."

A voice with a broad Scottish accent from the front of the crowd pierced
the quiet. . .



"Well, foockin stop doin it then, ya evil basturd !"

Oh I bet he was inside, but he does tend to take himself quite seriously sometimes.

I used to pass his house twice a day when we lived in Ireland!

Jimmy Carr is genius! NUFF SAID!

I think you gotta be ready to hear some raw stuff though. Some of his material is 'close to the bone'
