Bono: Enjoying the Drinks and Dancers in Turkey

September 6, 2010

Letting loose over the weekend, U2 frontman enjoyed a fun-filled stop in Istanbul, Turkey on Sunday (September 5).

The singing legend, who is coming off of recent back surgery, looked to be in high spirits as he sampled the drinks and dancers at local hotspot Reina.

Earlier in the day, Bono and friends – including fellow U2 member The Edge – grabbed up a bite to eat at the House Cafe.

The trip comes as the band’s manager Paul McGuinness has started a crusade against Internet Service Providers (ISPs) for their lackadaisical approach to curbing illegal downloads.

“I am convinced that ISPs are not going to help the music and film industry voluntarily,” Sarkozy wrote for a new GQ article. “Some things have got to come with the force of legislation, President Sarkozy understood that point when he became the first head of state to champion laws to require ISPs to reduce piracy in France.”

He added, “In Britain, the major political parties have understood it, too. Following the passing of new anti-piracy laws in April’s Digital Economy Act, Britain and France now have some of the world’s best legal environments for rebuilding our battered music business.”
