The shape of the face is not quite right. That's the one difference. The profile is spookily similar, the chin is respectable (and the chin is very important), but if you were to compare a frontal view of Danno's face to Bono's, you'd be able to tell which was which. Seeing them in profile would be quite another story. It helps, too, that Danno is shortish, has blue eyes, and has made certain alterations to his hair.
Danno is the frontman of Elevation (or Elevation USA, to distinguish them from a Canadian group), the U2 tribute band playing Cleveland's Hard Rock CafÈ February 7th and 8th. His resemblance to Bono "is probably one of the greatest promotional tools that we have," he says between sets at a recent gig in St. Louis. To spread the word about Elevation, all the band has to do is "plop me in a well-populated situation."
