Bono pitches in to aid Dignam’s cancer fight

U2 frontman Bono will lend his voice to the fundraising campaign for the medical bills of Aslan singer Christy Dignam — even though he will be in New York.

Dignam was diagnosed with cancer in March, and Bono has visited him in his house in Dublin and sent a card when the Aslan singer was receiving treatment in hospital.

It was reported yesterday that Bono will participate in a charity night to raise more than €100,000 to go towards medical expenses in the Olympia Theatre in Dublin.
