I think there's a bit more to it than just Bono being a twat. You'll have to accept that some people really really don't like U2 and they are one of those bands where it's difficult to separate the band from the music, if you know what I mean.

As for Bono's twattery, he does get quite a bit more airtime than most front men. He always seems to be riding along on the crest of some campaign or another. I'm not knocking his charity work (although, if the most successfully bands in the business weren't all tax exiles maybe some of us would be a little less needy) but I don't think that precludes someone from being a twat.

Billy Corgon may well be just as much of a twat but as I rarely get to hear him expressing himself outside the confines of a song I'm able to judge his musical output on it's own merits.


Thanks!
