An Irishman knighted by the Brits, what the hell, and yet to make matters even worse the son of a bitch does it on Irish soil. I can be more than sure that Bono's going to find more than a few rocks through his windows, and if I still lived in Dalkey I'd be positive he'd find a few.

In all honesty though I think this is just a huge PR move by the Queen to try and soften the Irish views of the Brits. I mean there have been a lot of Irish knighted lately what with Bono, the Togmeister, Peter Snow, and Martin O'Neill (though he really doesn't count). The Queen is obviously choosing famous people who won't turn down knighthood or else it'll wreck their career.

you're too right. i myself am irish, and yes, i do find it to be some publicity thing, but people should just move on. i'm not pissed off at this like the rest of the country, well done to Bono, very few get ASKED to be knighted, y'know

i hate bono, he thinks hes a world leader hes just another meddler. music is meant for enjoyment but bono does it just so he can get a point across. hes a attention seeker, the only reason he did that song with green day was just to boost up his popularity.

^ I think, by definition, anyone who performs for a living is an attention seeker. Anyway...

see, thats where you become a giant deuche. music is for getting a point across also. look at punk-rock. and by punk-rock, i DONT mean fall out boy. there not punk. punk is about anti-estableshment, and girls are not an establishment.
