AtomicLemon said:Can't believe a guy was at NAMM posing as Bono and signing stuff - What nerve. You would think because of all the industry people that were there he would have gotten laughed out of the place.
BonosBaby12 said:My bf sent me this pic earlier today. A co-worker's brother believed he met Bono at the end of April in Chicago airport.
bonocomet said:Yeah thats a great pic... do you know when/where its from? I still love the green shades best...
AtomicLemon said:Well, she just wrote me back. Now I am REALLY pissed at this faker especially reading what she said to him when she met him.
Anyway - Poor thing, This is what her email said:
That sucks, he had me so fooled. I told him how their album "All that you leave behind" saved me when my son was a runaway. I'm really upset because he saw how thankful I was of him and his work with charities - I was in tears the whole time. He signed autographs and everything. He went into the Fender booth, pulled down an acoustic and sang "One" for everyone. I'm so disappointed.

DAMN! How could no one at freaking NAMM (of all places) not kick this a-hole out? She was in tears and he totally played her. I'm hoing to see if I can get a scan of the autographs.
I'd wring his neck if I could - WHO IS HE? Pavel from San Diego ? JCoster or the guy from Toronto? Several names were mentioned.

U2 God said:I beg to differ here...
If you are a Bono look-alike and you intentionally try to fool people, you are an ASS! You should be arrested you jerk! You might want to hire a lawyer pal!
This guy has no idea what he is doing....first of all, get real earrings, get a real pair of shades (fake Bvlgaris), get a real beard (nice trim), get a real jacket (you're in the wrong era), get a real rosary (look that one up!), and get REAL as a person...you are obviously not a real fan of Bono (can you say "bandwagon?"). I happen to be a Bono impersonator and you, Pavel, make us all look a bunch of assholes! Come to NYC and I'll give you some lessons in Bono manners...you know who I am, look me up! You have to have some respect for him, he is the man, he is the ONLY man, you need to accept that...PERIOD!
Tony
Singer in Unforgettable Fire in New York City (San Diego, LOL!)
Come to NYC with your band and play ( I beg you) and see how many people you draw...I can't wait to tell the folks at Principle of what an ass you are! LOL! Nice move!

LoveU2LikeMad said:Professional lurker here. Not here to argue, but isn't a Bono or any celebrity look-alike/impersonator for that matter enjoying the attention they get from people aka fans who do a double take? Don't you actually want these fans to believe the impersonators are the REAL thing? I am sure you love it, Tony. Maybe it is wrong for these impersonators to sign autographs and whatnot....no reason telling a fellow Bono look alike publicly to get legal representation especially if you don't know the entire story of what happened with these alleged U2 fans drawn to speaking with and photographing this look-alike Bono...

But that is Duff.
