  1. I am glad Laura recognized that Agnes was the real rock star at Heart of America stop in Nashville. I am hearing stories of so many superficial fans showing up at the Heart of America stops just to see Bono and not caring about why he was really there. Just a hint folks: it wasn’t to sign autographs, sing new songs or show ff his latest camo hat.

  3. I went to the luncheon…Yes, to see Bono speak about HIV/AIDS. Am I superficial?..No. Did I hope that he would talk to some of us after the luncheon, Yes. I was there to support Bono…and I also think that Agnes was the star “du jour”. Also, the Nashville visit wasn’t part of the Heart of America Tour. Thanks.

  5. I wasn’t implying that every fan that attended was superficial. I count myself as one of many U2 fans who sincerely want to change the environment for those suffereing from AIDS in Africa and who are willing to act. All I am saying is that I am willing to bet that a good deal of the people attending the meetings wouldn’t have attended had Bono not been there. Do you care enough to say that you would have gone even if Britney Spears had been speaking instead of Bono?

  9. You really can’t bet anything unless you were there in person and actually saw the crowd present. Who is Britney Spears?
