Neil McCormick - I Was Bono's Doppelganger

Neil McCormick - I Was Bono's Doppelganger

The phone rings: 'Neil, it's Bono, I've just recorded a duet with Frank Sinatra!'

'Aaarrrgghh! Leave me alone. You're living the life I wanted!'

It's every boy's dream: to be a Rock God. Most of us leave the dream behind when reality bites, but that's not so easy when your mate's the lead singer in the biggest band in the world. Neil McCormick and Bono first met at school. Their continued friendship only highlights Neil's failure to live the dream.

Self-deprecating, charming and very, very funny, this is a memoir for anyone who's ever gurned in front of the mirror as they hit the high notes on their air guitar.
