Bob Geldof has been a punk, a tireless campaigner for good causes and, in his personal life, the unfortunate centre of both salacious scandal and tragedy. Music, however, remains his first love, and he proves this at the Irish Village in Dubai.
Geldof was originally lead singer with punk/New Wave band The Boomtown Rats, whose most famous single remains I Don't Like Mondays, the story of an American schoolgirl who gunned down her classmates. However, he is best known for being the man who organised first the Band Aid single, Do They Know It's Christmas? in 1984 and the subsequent Live Aid and Live 8 concerts.
