Ha, to be fair it was pretty special in itself, until the whole Rattle and Hum thing threw everyone off kilter...but that's one hell of a thought!

Could you imagine though? I don't think the world is ready for another Macphisto. It would fall flat on it's face. How that man pulled it off I will never know

There's really nowhere else you can go after you've taken on the persona of the devil, I suppose.
That would be hilarious though, to see Bono try.

It would be mental and a complete failure lol. ZooTV etc. were of their time - to go back to the concepts of ZooTV would be completely out of character with the Bono of today AND look really stupid lol. Well, that's what I think...

Yup, most definitely.

Nope. Not gonna happen.

I suppose it WOULD still involve conversations with various dignitaries etc...

But nah, would be bollocks lol...

Oh yeah--but this time he'd be serious, which is what would make it an absolute train wreck and so hilarious.

I wouldn't completely rule this out as a possibility.
