Bono at a Glance 

Paul David Hewson, KBE (born 10 May 1960), most commonly known by his stage name Bono, is an Irish singer and musician, best known for being the main vocalist of the Dublin-based rock band U2. Bono was born and raised in Dublin, Ireland, and attended Mount Temple Comprehensive School where he met his future wife, Ali Hewson, and the future members of U2.

    I wish Bono, the whole US group, would visit my Squidoo page. I have writen a book along the lines of their song "ONE". The book is calles One Life-Love-Energy

    I would love to have Bono's comments on my thoughts in this regard, I'm sure the ONE Foundation could add to my thoughts extensively.

    We need to "Carry each other", brothers & susters.

    I have a friend who is terminally ill. His favorite artist is Bono and he would be thrilled to have an autograph picture, note, anything from him. If there were a make a wish foundation for cancer patients, his wish would be to meet Bono. I know this is impossible, but any word from him would mean the world to Fred. His website is www.caringbridge.org/visit/fredg

    Any advise on how to go about honoring Fred's request is greatly appreciated.

    Is it possible to give me an address to write to Bono. I have a brain aneurysm and I do not know how much longer I am going to be here. I just wanted to write to Bono to say Thanks for making my recovery and life so wonderful.
