  1. Is it me or is Bono starting to look really old. I saw some footage some fans shot at a meet and greet in Boston, and Bono isn't aging well. His face is really wrinkled up.

    I don't think it is too bad actually. Pretty average for a man approaching 60...
    I think it is a good Rock 'N Roll quality in fact...

    OK, he doesn't look like Sean Connery when he was 60...but, well, how many do?

  3. looks good for 60 imho
  4. It depends a lot on the angle the pic is taken from, as well as Bono's gesture. When he smiles he takes off a good bunch of years from his face. Sadly a lot of times when he meet fans he is a bit grumpy and not really happy so he looks much older.

    This could have been posted 5 years ago.
    Either way. I think he's looking fine depending on what shades he's wearing. ( The lennon glasses don't make him appear younger at all )

    He look so much like his old.man. but i think B still looks better than his old.man in that Anton Corbijn picture. ( The one where the band poses with their dads )
  6. He aged 20 years in between 360 and Innocence. Pictured below: Moncton 360 vs. Vancouver I&E



  7. 2011-2015 was crazy for Bono in terms of appearance. He seems a bit better 2017 through to now but that brush with mortality properly took its toll.
  8. I'd say more like 10 years between Moncton and Vancouver 2015, and 10 more years between Paris 2015 and Vancouver 2017. He was still fine in 2015, only the blond hair was criminal But the return after the brush with mortality and the Joshua Filler 30 tour really wasn't good at all.


    BTW - he looked REALLY badass and young in 2010 and 2011. Your pic is the perfect example.
  9. As long as the man is in very good health now I don't care what he looks like. Old Mother Time has a way of beating the shit out of us all folks!
  10. I miss the 360 tour. What a fucking show that was.

    Might watch a bootleg or the Rose Bowl dvd tonight

    What's the best-looking/sounding multi-cam out there from 360?

    Mother Time?

    According to myth, it was the Titan Kronos (Cronus) who became ruler of time.* Hence the word "chrono" and all its derivatives

    But you are right: time waits for no one...

    *some say it was the god Chronos though (but that was -or is? - a he too).
