    Apparently Bono has appeared on grafton street. Always thought he was a bit of a tosser but this is a pretty cool thing to do for his fans.

    I heard a rumor that when he busked last year there were a few people going round with hats looking for money...

    more than likely not true; but you wouldn't really be surprised if it was either!

    Is this the one where loads of well known musicians play for about 10 hours, raising money for charity every Christmas eve - and Bono comes along for 10 minutes and it all becomes about him?

    Bono, Lisa Hannigan, Gavin Glass, Glen Hansard, Declan O'Rourke, Steve Wall & Co all busking together on Grafton Street this evening. Nice gesture from them all - I'm sure they have other things to be doing on the day thats in it. Photos below (apologies for the quality - took them with my phone)

    THIS ISN'T AFTER HOURS.

    sfwcork was obviously joking, but you attempted to turn it into a cheap personal insult.

    And failed.
