South Africa’s own “Hof” tweeted yesterday that he dumped his U2 concert tickets in the Jukskei River, in protest of statements made by Bono regarding political songs.

Bono has not yet responded. Apparently he is first figuring out who the hell Steve Hofmeyr is.

In an interview with the Sunday Times, Bono said that he remembers his uncles singing songs about the early days of the Irish Republican Army. He went on to say that “it is fair to say that it’s folk music… as this was the struggle of some people that sang it over some time. But would you want to sing that in a certain community? It’s pretty dumb.”

Hof took major umbrage to these statements and took the drastic step of dumping his tickets in the river. That’ll show them.
