He believes that Africa will soon become a super power. Poverty and biased journalism tick him off. Rock and roll is his way of reaching out to people. Yes, he could be one strange man, but Bob Geldof is not going to be someone else just to please anyone.

Michael Hutchence of INXS - Compatibility With Paula Yates and Paula With Bob Geldof
by
M Monk
Paula was a Life Path 7 and so she would be a thinker and uninterested in practical, down-to-earth matters. Being a passive 7 she will have an inferiority complex and be prone to emotional withdrawal.

Stylish Jeans of London's "It" Girl Peaches Geldof
by
Tess Ferrton
Socialite and British model Peaches Geldof may not be a household name, but she is making waves in the fashion industry. Her status comes first and foremost through her grandfather Hughie Green, who was a very popular host of numerous television shows, and her father Bob Geldof, most famous for co-writing the wildly popular tune "Do They Know It's Christmas?" and co-founding the super group Band Aid to raise money for famine relief in Ethiopia.

George Clooney, Darfur Genocide, and Celebrity Activism
by
Rob W Stanley
Celebrities, often liberal ones, like to put their support behind global aid and intervention issues to raise awareness of both the problems themselves and the extent of their good works. However, the acts of raising awareness and subsequent funds do not necessarily guarantee amelioration of disadvantaged areas of the world, despite the left's claims that western selfishness is obstructing this improvement. Even worse, their deeds can deepen and prolong the crisis.

by
Milton Johanides
All credit to Simon Cowell for agreeing to Prime Minister Gordon Brown's request to stage and produce a charity song in aid of the Haiti disaster charity. Yes, it's going to give both Brown and Cowell loads of good publicity over the coming weeks, but that is entirely.....

Surfing With Style On The Big New Wave
by
Michelle Duffy
Moody, miserable and sneering like Billy Idol, the front man of The Boomtown Rats was the vastly opinionated and occasionally angry Bob Geldof. After forming his band in a small, sleepy town near Dublin, Ireland in 1975, he led the way for the era of meaningless new wave. With Johnny Fingers on keyboards, Simon Crowe on drums, Pete Briquette on bass, they were joined by Gerry Cott and Garry Roberts on guitars, they originally called themselves The Nightlife Thugs. Thankfully after reading Woody Guthrie's 'Bound For Glory,' they changed their title to the name of a gang mentioned in the story.
