Bono has revealed that he was worried that Sir Bob Geldof would get so worked up while talking to the Prime Minister Tony Blair that he would spit on him.
The U2 frontman apparently had to separate Geldof from Blair when the discussion concerning the efforts surrounding the Live 8 concerts became too heated.
He said: "I had to call him off Mr Blair. Literally spittle coming out, invective coming out, and Tony reaching over to me saying, 'I believe you've a greatest hits coming,' just to get a break from Geldof.
"I have seen Geldof try to bite prime ministers. I accept the rules of ultimate fighting, which are: you can't poke someone in the eye or bite them, and Bob doesn't."
See, Bono is a peacemaker.
Yes. Boner is the high-class act of the two.
Rabid animals do the same thing...spit and bite..
Robertson may be right...
These people are possessed by Satan
I'm still laughing at the fact that Bono is so earnest in saying this.
Other ultimate fighting rules, possibly:
No shoving a live ferret down your opponent's trousers.
No breaking out in high opera while jack-rabbit punching them in the kidneys.
No squeezing of dangly bits, just 'cuz...
They're all such halfwits... and don't even realize it.
