Getting to know Bono the activist

I am certain that most people love U2 for being a world class musical band who are capable of bringing the house down with their unique brand of music but how many people actually appreciates the fact that their leading front men together with the rest of the band are pretty nice citizens of Earth?
Bono, the Edge and other members of the star studded band saw it fit to take proactive steps in countering social problems like disease, poverty and social unfairness. Most notably, Bono have been known to take extra care in eradicating poverty in Africa and this began in the mid 1980’s where he and Ali, his other half saw how famine nearly destroyed the people of Ethiopia. The Edge was also not to be ignored and he was also known as a great humanitarian in his own right. He helped collect funds for victims of the devastating Hurricane Katrina.

So it is no wonder that people are buying up U2 concert tickets in droves. If you would like affordable concert tickets without the hassle of queuing up, your best alternative is in Seatwave, a close knit community formed out of the love of sharing concert tickets without letting them go to waste.
