U2 and Bono get a lot of shit for being pompous and/or pretentious, but Bono really seems to want to change the world for the better, and that's not pompous or pretentious at all.
U2 appears to be primarily the vehicle for Bono's massive ego (and to a lesser extent), "The Edge", who seems to have had a beenie surgically grafted to his head. OK, They created some memorable tunes 40 years ago but lately they have produced nothing of real substance. I thought I'd sit through the video to see if my opinions were unfounded. Sadly they remain exactly the same as before. I noticed that the band's founder, Larry Mullen Jr. never got a single word in or Adam Clayton for that matter. (That speaks volumes)
