Bob Geldof, Sir or Cur?

[graemer]

We've just had an interview with Bob obstensibly promoting Grumpy Old Men out here. Never had much time for him before but found him quite impressive in his honesty. I know he's been in trouble at the press awards but what do everyday folk think of him?

[donegal]

Sir Bob is cool

[cheyenne]

He's straight and to the Point,I Like that.Plus he doesent like Mondays!!

[FP]

Exceptional person.  Genuine and full of energy and commited to what he believes.  His knighthood was earned and deserved .  Long live Sir Bob.

[rja211077]

yeah he's genuinely passionate about what he does and clearly intelligent enough to get results.

i wouldn't buy his records though. no siree.

[Kay]

Bobs one in a million!

[kazza12345]

i really admire people who say what the rest of us are too polite to say.  I also really admire people who can make scruffy a style statement

[smudge]

I have always admired Sir Bob Geldolf for his honesty.

He is a remarkable person & a good father to his daughters, including the little girl he adopted.

Not so sure about his singing though, even his daughters think it's naff - bless em!

[Philtaz]

Straight talker, which I really admire.  Honest, self depricating and maintained his dignity throughout the untidy split from Paula.

Obviously a devoted, doting father to his children, even more so in raising Tiger Lily along with her half sisters.

An all round good egg in my humble opinion.

[rod]

He�s honest and really care�s how many people in the public eye can you say that about?

[kev100]

He speaks intelligently and honestly, it's a pity he doesn't stand for parliament.

[netibiza]

A caring and intelligent human being.

[graemer]

Sir Bob, take a bow!

[BillyBB]

Boomtown Rats, a fine example of good music with political message. Unlike some of his peers he has not yet disappeared up his own a**.
