Sir Bob Geldof joins Zoe Ball for Breakfast!

Legendary musical icon Sir Bob Geldof joins Zoe for Breakfast, to catch up about the latest happenings with The Boomtown Rats!

The legendary musical icon Sir Bob Geldof joins us for breakfast to fill us in on the latest happenings with The Boomtown Rats!

They're back back back with a greatest hits album (which includes two brand new tracks!) and a tour which will take them all over the UK in the Autumn for the first time in 27 years!

Boomtown Bob shares his music choices and gets the nation pogo-ing to The Ramones, before dancing along to Wham!

Zoe also chats to two stars of this weekend's music extravaganza, Radio 2 Live in Hyde Park, James Blunt and Jamie Cullum. And today's Pause for Thoughter is Simon Cohen.
