I have one of his paintings on my wall.

Really? I didn't even know he paints.

Yeah he does but he never had it on display until just last year in London. I think he kinda liked the fact it was a hobby. I would attatch a pic only am such a retard I cant work the attatchment thingie

That (the painting)is class, did you have to buy it directly from a gallery?

I went to the Leonard Cohen tribute thing last year, I loved it. Up alongside Neil Young & Springsteen for must see shows

If he takes the p!ss and sings "RonnieDrew-ya" to the chorus of "Hallelujah" at any stage, I will be well impressed.

But he wont, because Cohen-plagiarism aside, the Ronnie Drew song is a hideous piece of cacophonic muck which would never be performed, even in jest, by anyone with an ounce of self respect.

It's also another addition to the long litany of reasons as to why Bono should be beaten soundly around a pig field by a huge lump of a lad wielding a dirty big hurley with nails in.
