In a way it is. I mean, Bono (like a lot of other people) is obviously a
fan of Lennon's, and maybe takes some of his activism from that source
of inspiration, but...I doubt if he's trying to be Lennon, especially in
the music department: he doesn't wrote songs even an eighth as good as
John's. I think he's basically a pud...

two... Maybe you met there...??

Do you mean, is Bono trying to be a talented musician as John was?
If so, then the answer is a very obvious "no".
Dale Houstman...

Well - I think he's TRYING. Very trying...

Bono has his talents - but they are few compared to JL. He (& U2) did
play with Paul at Live8 (Sgt. Pepper) and that's as close as he'll ever
get to John.

I don't think Bono is trying to imitate anyone, but he is a big Lennon
fan.
