Hey, The Edge is amazing at guitar. And the best stuff the band has ever released (the stuff from the 80's) all had more of The Edge's amazing guitar work on it. I think it will be great!

It's odd. The Edge said that he was the "guitar anti-hero", but now he's becoming the guitar hero to a whole new generation.

His 80's stuff rocked....so did the riff from "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me"

Ah. Love that song.

Oh man, when I was really young and saw that movie. I heard that song and LOVED it. I found out it was actually U2 a year ago. haha. Edge's guitar in that song is fabulous!

 

Though, I do believe the best guitar work he's ever done was on Pride (In the name of love), or Where The Streets Have No Name.

Oh. I can't listen to the opening of "Streets" without getting chills.

*sigh* If only I could borrow The Edge's talent for a day....

u play guitar? I bet ur great!

 

yea, I would love to be able to play guitar like Edge.

Me? Great? HA!

If great means knowing about 3 chords, and playing them over and over and over, then yes. I'm the next Eric Clapton, thank you.

hahah. well you get better over time. Nobody starts off amazing at guitar. It doesn't work that way.

BTW, where'd you get your avatar?

oh, and thanks for the vote of confidence. I can almost play "One". *Almost*

that's a great start! You'll be great! don't worry.

Thanks. And to get back on topic, what do you think of Electrical Storm?

other than "One", i cant stand any of U2's early/mid 90's material.

what do you think of Electrical Storm?

 

fucking brilliant.

"One" is great. Have you ever heard "Electric Co." or "Trash, Trampoline, and the Party Girl" ?

The video for Electrical Storm's a bit odd though. The hell is up with that deer in it?

Electrical Storm was alrite...... it was good, but not really good.

Have you ever heard "Electric Co." or "Trash' date=' Trampoline, and the Party Girl" ?[/quote']

 

no and no thanks.

Hmm...has anyone heard anymore details about the new album?

It should be released around Christmas. That's just a rumour though. Rumour also has it that the next tour for U2 may very well be the last one. :(

no! Oh, man....now I *have* to get tickets. I'm already kicking myself for missing out on ZooTV and Elevation...

well, they've had a good run.

Yeah. At least they didn't turn out like some one-hit wonder band.

U2 has had a GREAT run. they've been at the top of their game for a long...long time. They've managed to stay together since they formed in 1976. I missed out on the Elevation tour. ANd I am NOT going to miss out on the next one! haha

Yep. Even if I have to sneak into the next concert, I'm going.

[lol, anyone up for organizing a break-in with me?]

Well, I'm off to go practice becoming The Edge.
