Saturday: for musicians like Bono and Bob Geldof, this day would be spent rocking out at sold-out venues, making chart-topping music, or getting their hands dirty helping solve the world’s problems.
And this past weekend was no different – Bono and Bob stepped foot in Toronto’s offices of The Globe and Mail, and made history as the first guest-editors for Canada’s national newspaper.
You can check out the full Bono and Bob-Globe experience in Jennifer MacMillan’s article “Bono and Geldof take the reins”, PLUS, check out the musical duo’s full edition of the paper, titled “The Africa Century”.
