Brian Johnson has a deserved go at Bono and other “do-good” rockers:
“I do it myself, I don’t tell everybody I’m doing it,” Johnson said.
“I don’t tell everybody they should give money – they can’t afford it.
“When I was a working man I didn’t want to go to a concert for some bastard to talk down to me that I should be thinking of some kid in Africa.
“I’m sorry mate, do it yourself, spend some of your own money and get it done. It just makes me angry. I become all tyrannical.”
I do think there is a place for charity concerts as long as the money is properly accounted for. But, good intentions aside, do we really need a remake of We Are the World for Haiti? It was a god awful song then and the assembled “talent” this time around is not going to make it any better.
