Stop the Presses

“I think it’s about time I signed off on him in any kind of artistic or creative way,” Leo says with a mildly amused frankness. The particular reason was Bono’s turn as the Walrus in the thoroughly overcooked Beatles musical Across the Universe. According to Leo, that’s just going too damn far. “Acting out your John Lennon fantasy in a boomer nostalgia musical is just too much. I defended him before, but I’m not listening to anything after Rattle and Hum from now on.” - Some Unknown Random Dude.


Bono was available for comment and said this: "I guess I will just have to pick up the pieces and move on with my life."

BONO OWNS YOU. :D

Bono Must Die have been forced to change their name because Bono (yes, the Bono) has trademarked his name: "alas we feel we have to change our name in order for us not to lose our houses and give any potential record sales to one man because he happened to trademark his name," the band revealed in a statement today.

"We don't really want to do it. But we do not have enough choice... or money."

So, their new name is:

oRPHANS [FKABMD]

The [FKABMD] stands for [Formerly Known as BoNO MUST DIE].

They'll be playing their last ever gig as BMD this evening (October 9th) for Trash Fashion's EP launch party in London.



BONO RULES. Write it down. And then take a picture.

Don't EFF with the big boys.
