How Much do you hate Bono?

[Gagh]

Write ins only.

Personally, I think he's a monumentally egotistical pretentious & hypocritical fuck. And U2 suck big balls (SITH balls).

 

[Cassie]

I liked U2 a long time ago, and I still like the old U2 songs. I actually have no idea what any of the newer songs sound like. ANYWAY I agree that he is a pretentious fuckface.. being a rock star doesn't make you any smarter than anyone else.

 

[The Dork Lord]

I like Bono, and I even like new U2 songs!

 

[CaptainWacky]

IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DAY BECAUSE TRIPLE H IS COMING BACK TO WIN THE ROYAL RUMBLE AND COMPLETELY SQUASH JERICHO AT WRESTLEMANIA IN HORRIBLE FASHION THEN QUICKLY TURNS HEEL BECAUSE HIS TITLE REIGH WAS A DISASTER.

 

[Fuddlemiff]

The number of people they must've disappointed over the years as Bono announced that "the greatest rock band in the world" were about to play, only for Led Zeppelin to fail to materialise.

I actually have no idea what any of the newer songs sound like.

The old ones.

I think Sonny Bono should have sued him over use of the name.

 

[Thrusty]

I like the U2 and Bono is invloved with more then himself. I think he truely gives a shit about the misjustices in the world. Sure isn't wasting his time on the message boards.

 

[Dershocka]

He doesn't help me therefore I could give 2 shits about em.

 

[Laker_Girl]

Bono's okay but honestly, the only U2 song I like is the one Edge "sang"...I take that back, I like "The Sweetest Thing" too, Bono wrote that as an anniversary present for his wife and that's just precious.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Too bad he beats his wife's thighs with a steel ruler every night.

 

[Tisiphone]

What Gagh said.

I can't change the station fast enough when I hear their songs.

 

[Hero1000]

U2 >>>>>>> REM

 

[The Dork Lord]

TROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOF!

I like the U2 and Bono is invloved with more then himself. I think he truely gives a shit about the misjustices in the world. Sure isn't wasting his time on the message boards.

U TELL EM THRUSTY!

 

[CaptainWacky]

Didn't he sue someone for ripping his hat or something?

 

[SilentBtViolent]

Never trust a humanitarian in sunglasses!

 

[Yub]

I'd like to know how much of his dosh he pisses up the wall and how much he gives to charity, the prat.

Bono and his bandmates were criticized in 2007 for avoiding taxes in their native country. As reported in the Irish Sunday Independent newspaper, U2 moved part of their multi-million euro song catalogue from Ireland to a tax shelter in Amsterdam six months before Ireland ended a tax exemption on musicians' royalties.[16] Until then U2 benefited from the artists' tax exemption introduced by the late Taoiseach Charles Haughey. Future income will fall under Dutch tax law, which charges bands like U2 very low to nonexistent tax rates.[16] By moving its major assets to Amsterdam, U2 no longer pays tax on income from their artistic ventures as residents in Ireland.[36] U2's manager, Paul McGuinness, stated that the arrangement is legal and customary and businesses often seek to minimize their tax burdens.[16] The move prompted criticisms in the Oireachtas (Irish parliament).[36][37]

It has been suggested that this tax avoidance is inconsistent with Bono's public stance against poverty. Bono has pressured the Irish government to increase the proportion of Ireland's GNP allocated to overseas aid. He made this request not only in an open letter [10] but also more ostentatiously on stage at a concert in Croke Park at which the Taoiseach of Ireland, Bertie Ahern, was present [11]. The latter public gesture resulted in the Ahern being booed by the crowd. Richard Murphy, a researcher into the links between tax havens and poverty, has described Bono's actions as "moral bankruptcy".[12]
