Bono has revealed the death threats he received from the IRA and how a major gangland figure once plotted to kidnap his daughters during the height of his career.
The U2 star, whose real name is Paul Hewson, makes the revelations in his upcoming memoir ‘Surrender: 40 Songs, One Story,’ which is released on Tuesday, November 1.
In his memoir, the U2 frontman recalled former Sinn Fein leader Gerry Adams said he “stinks” after it was perceived “U2’s opposition to paramilitaries had cost the IRA valuable funding from the US.”
