when singing sunday bloody sunday they had co-exist come up on the screens with the crescent moon of Islam making the C, the star of David making the X and the cross making the T and it was just tacky IMO. surely someone turned round n thought, listen that just looks stupid bono mate. or maybe that's just me.

how can you slag bono off for "preaching"?!
he's one of the few musicians that are actually prepared to try and do something about the sh*t in this world. How much he gives to charity (and i guess rather a lot) isnt the point - do you see Jon working his ass off trying to slash third world debt?!
I was at manchester, and considering how politically charged a lot of their songs are (not in "socially aware" Bounce sense i.e. bollocks), one kind of expects a strong message.
We should give him and Geldoff credit for trying to do something:
30,000 children day a day in Africa.
