To Sirs, With Love: Rock 'n' Roll Nobility
- Posted by Spinner
In music, there's the King, the Queen of Soul and even Gladys Knight. But several musicians have attained true nobility by decree of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
Bono is the latest to receive the chivalrous title, at a ceremony yesterday in Dublin. To celebrate, we've put together a royal collection of music's esteemed Sirs, Dames and Commanders.

Bono is a very intelligent man, but I seriously question his decision on accepting this from the Queen. He should have turned it down flat. He had that option before it was announced to the public. He could have turned it down privately and the Queen could save face as a result. Now, I do not know how Bono can show his face in Ireland and ever sing Sunday Bloody Sunday in public.
