I think we can all agree Bob Geldof is a bit of a dick. The guy talks a lot of shit. Recently, he managed to force hundreds of fans to walk out of a musical festival during his performance after going on a foul-mouthed rant.

The 64-year-old had been booked to headline a two-day Brentwood Festival in Essex with his band, The Boomtown Rats. However, during his performance, he reportedly started shouting and swearing.

Apparently he was unhappy with the crowd's atmosphere and started kicking off bit time.

He told the crowd: "We don't do Abba. We don't do Robbie fucking Williams.

"Brentwood, we are the Boomtown Rats.

"We are mega. And you are Brentwood. How do we know that you are Brentwood and we are mega?

"Because I am wearing a fuck-off pretend snakeskin suit and [they] are wearing fuck off cowboy shirts, even though they live in London."

He has a point about the cowboy shirts to be fair. But what a wanker. He's been in the game a pretty long time, surely he knows it's not wise to insult the entire crowd at your gig? Surprised nobody launched a pint of piss at his head.

Just when you thought he couldn't get any worse, the multi-millionaire then started going off one, saying they were all wearing Primark gear. How rude. And who cares if everyone is in Primani?

He continued: "On the other hand Brentwood, you are wearing wall to wall fucking Primark.

"This is a rock and roll festival. When you come to a rock and roll festival you dress for a rock and roll festival. You can never be too careful.

"That song we just did was written at the end of 1975 when Margaret Thatcher became leader of the opposition.

"What are you booing for? We're in fucking Brexit land here guys. Yeah, we're Irish, we're still in Europe.

"It's just as well we wrote that song because this year is about Theresa May. She's gonna do you in.

"There's always someone looking at you Brentwood."

Calm down, pal.
