I have to say I'm not much of a Bono fan, but this really is very cool. |

Because of that, maybe I won't spit derisively the next time I see Bono's face plastered over a billboard hawking $1000 luggage.
Although, I have to say that the cynic in me is annoyed. Think I can score Wooten's bass by making a sign that says I'm a bass player with GAS?

I find it funny how even those praising Bono for something feel the necessity to add a line in their posts indicating their dislike in general for U2. Not that I'm unhappy with that. Everyone has opinions.
