Is Bob Geldof touring in February? What do people think of his new album? I thought it was a bit dodgy, you have to admire his rawness and honesty in dealing with a very personal episode in his life, but I found the songs terrible. Saying that though I'd still like to see him live and hear some of his old stuff. Anyone know of any tour details?

The album was brave in a way but I have to agree with you, it's a terrible listen. Awful rubbish altogether. He's touring in Feb alright but I wouldn't hold my breath. A mate of mine is a sound engineer and was in Killarney for his Gleneagles show at the tail end of last year. He said it was dire, Geldof had obviously "had a pint" and was fairly abusive to the meagre audience. Saying that though, he did play a few Boomtown Rats numbers to warm the memory banks. Hit and miss I reckon. Like his solo career in fact.
