Alter-Egomaniacs: Bono

Bono aka MacPhisto

One of Bono's three onstage personas during the 1992-93 Zoo TV tour (along with the Fly and Mirrorball Man), MacPhisto was a Satanic lounge singer with horns, white makeup, a gold lamé suit and a penchant for making prank phone calls. Ostensibly a parody of has-been rock excess, the self-described "last rock star" sometimes came across as a self-parody as well; Bono taken to the logical extreme.
