Re: Bono
Great story, but apparently not true: http://www.snopes.com/music/artists/bono.asp.

Bono, the lead singer of the band U2 is famous throughout the entertainment industry for being more than just a little self-righteous.
He was playing a U2 concert in Glasgow, Scotland when he asked the audience for total quiet.
Then in the silence, he started to slowly clap his hands … once every few seconds.
Holding the audience in total silence, he says into the microphone,
“Every time I clap my hands, a child in Africa dies.”
A voice with a broad Scottish accent, from near the front of the crowd, pierces the silence …
… … … … … … “Well, … stop doin’ it then!”
