Bono's fishy retirement
Quote:
Bono has considered quitting music - to live on a fish farm.
The U2 frontman confessed he and the rest of the band sometimes dream of retiring from music and trying a different lifestyle.
He said: "After doing this kind of thing for so long, it becomes a grudge match... against your opponent, which is of course your lazy self, or the other self, which fancies the fish farm in Wales or Kenya - go and live on the beach, you've earned it, and for us it becomes a fight against that temptation."
Bono also says he and the band believe they've proved their critics wrong with their successful comeback album 'How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb'.
He told Britain's Observer Music Monthly magazine: "They thought we were off to the fish farm in Wales, the rock star retirement, or the Betty Ford clinic, the nostalgia shows, isn't that what's supposed to happen?
"We succeeded, and they hated us for that - can't you do anything right? Get a fat arse for f**k's sake... and there we are. You start to think, what are the possibilities of a combo who have made their music together for 20 years but who are now more able intellectually, artistically, musically than they've ever been. Oh boy!"

Re: Bono's fishy retirement
I don't like Bono, I don't mind U2's music but he seems so arragant.

How colonial of poor Bono to want to own an estate in Kenya.
Bono = Bwana ?
