Songs dropped from original October album release?
(Preview)
Just noticed that How To Sell has only ten tracks. I may be mistaken but the original line up possibly had twelve songs for the October release or maybe it was my imagination. If so we'll be getting a trimmed down version. Geldof once claimed that if you can't say it all in ten songs then you shouldn't pad i...

Curious about Leslie Sheppard
(Preview)
Was curious to know a bit more about the Leslie Sheppard person who wrote How To Compose so did a bit of admittedly amateur Internet type research. Seems the same person also wrote a book called Tinnitus- all you want to know about this distressing condition. As well LS {not sure whether male or femal...

Rock and Rebuild Concert Sydney May 1 2011
(Preview)
Interestingly Bob was asked by Simon Mayo on BBC 5 live is he would ever consider organising another concert like live Aid or Live 8 and Geldof said it was pretty unlikely. Now we hear that Bob is to host a concert in Sydney on May 1 called Rock and Rebuilt featuring artists from Australia, New Zealand and...

Bob on BBC Radio 5 LIVE Richard Bacon show Monday 4 April 2-4
(Preview)
Was just listening to BBC Radio 5 Live and heard that Bob Geldof is appearing on the Richard Bacon show sometime today between 2 and 4 pm. 5 live is one of my favourite stations and I tend to listen to it a lot. Richard Bacon is not my favourite presenter, having taken over from the brilliant Simon Mayo ov...

"Rock 'n' Roll might be over" - Geldof
(Preview)
Some kicking quotes! However I think Rock 'n' Roll has been over for quite a while now. Pulp announced it at the end of the last century. I'd love to have seen the ranting and raving, and he may have some valid points, but I think if he really cared he'd be touring and making some protest music. http://...

Questions about the new album
(Preview)
I am loving it. However, some questions keep going around in my head. Well 2. 1. Where did Bob find the book by Leslie Shepherd? Words from his own mouth - in a second hand book shop and on the piano of a friend... so which is it? 2. Bob describes himself as an atheist. Like me then. However, he refers...

Some think it is, but it ain't. It is independent. If you think the stupid mugs they are trying to flog on the Geldof website are ****e, you are free to say that here. Or anything else for that matter. Read the rules, reasonably adhere to them and write freely. Getting REALLY fed up that this forum is...

Dazzled By Them in Berlin

For years now I have felt like I was in some sort of secret club, a very select club, which is all rather nice but being cliquey was never a good quality now was it. Bob was in Berlin to showcase the new album. The intimate clu...
