LOL! yeah, you were going to call those 800#'s from the ZooTV video. I got very nosey at work the next morning, so I decided to call. And a few other gals in here called as well and some got different results. However when I called they were all automated numbers and not at all interesting, except for one because it was the USDA Meat and Polutry Hotline...LMAO!

Yeah, I'll second that "no shit." Do we know this is for real? (Not knowing anyone on the U2-midwest mailing list, I really couldn't speculate.)

I think I'm the biggest nerd in the world, but that would actually be my dream conversation. Nevermind hearing about U2 and if there's a new album coming out and if they're touring. Just tell me everything you know about debt relief. Or anything else political for that matter.

I need to get out more

I could be wrong, it has been known

Well, I've actually looked the number up as well, and I found one for Ali Hewson in NYC. I've dialed it during the day but only get an automated voice mail message. I guess I'll have to call at night!

I should've called on New Years Eve when he was having his party and pose as one of his guests asking for the right address of his place!!!

Well.. they are all pretty damn truthful and I have met some of them. I think their friends really DID call Ali Hewson's number, but I have no clue if it was Bono.

Please don't flame me, but I think it's a really bad idea to post that number on a public forum.

Please, think about it and whether it might be a good idea to delete that post?

I'm not criticising anyone, okay - it's just I don't think it's really fair to post someone's private phone number on the internet.

Okay - see this isn't fair to him. All he owes you is good music and a nice smile if you meet him - he doesn't deserve to lose his privacy anymore than he has.

I know some of you are madly in teenage lust with these guys - but posting what might actually be his phone number is completely UNFAIR. Perhaps one day you will see what it's like to be on his end - to have people camp out in front of your house, photograph you everywhere you go, call your phone number when you're trying to rest...being a grown-up is a wonderful way to be - so I hope you edit your post and take his number OFF.

Ok girls pleeeeeeeeeeeease don't be calling bono now. I'm sure he wants his privacy and getting 1000 phonecalls from 1000 different girls would be bad. *writes down number for later use* LOL j/k

Just wanted to add this..

I agree you should NOT post his actual number. That is just stupid. But I thought no one here would me stupid/mean enough to actually call. I am sorry for posting it but all I honestly was thinking of when I posted it that it was a funny story and it should be posted. That's all.

No dear, someone posted Bono's home phone number here on the board. To do something like that is in bad taste.
