Bob Geldof: Strippers on Sunday morning in Sheriff Street, the girl at our first gig who wanted to 'go to bed' with me and why Phil Lynott said I had to get a 'fking limousine'

"Celebrating 50 years of the band, Geldof says he's 'happy'"

"'Is that you, Egan?'"

""F**king hell! You are going seriously grey and bald, Egan!""

Bob Geldof marks 50 years of the band and states he is happy. He adopts the voice of a belligerent teacher from his unhappy days at Blackrock College to address Egan. He greets with, 'Is that you, Egan?' and then jokes bluntly, 'F**king hell! You are going seriously grey and bald, Egan!' The exchange takes place over Zoom. Geldof presents distinguished salt-and-pepper hair and a younger appearance than his 73 years. The moment blends celebration, nostalgia and irreverent, self-aware humor about aging and appearance.
