I don't really know anything about him. I just saw a friend who's very in to politics say something about him once.
Me? I haven't had the chance to sit with the guy and make an informed decision so...
I don't listen to gossip and I don't believe the media either. It's always opinion more than fact. :)
His music though... it's always resonated with me. Especially "The Joshua Tree". That album I adore from start to finish.
