As far as innovative guitarist go, Pat Smear, the origianl guitarist from Foo Fighters was pretty good. None of his replecements have been able to play Everlong quite right(and suck at harmonys). Thats probally why they play it mostly acoustic with just Dave for most of it nowadays.
Originally posted by wtshnnfb01I'm sure they didn't leave it all there, since a number of Explorers, Strats, and LP's survived. Also, I think using the blue SG could be cool.

Eventually, each guitar listed will be a link to more information and pics of that guitar. Example?
The page will have something like this -
Make: GIBSON
Model: LES PAUL STANDARD / 30th Anniversary Goldtop
Finish: GOLD (Gold top w/ mahogany neck, back and sides)
Vintage: 1983
USE:
- Stage: "Last Night On Earth" (Popmart), "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me" (Popmart), "Until The End Of The World" (Popmart / Elevation / Vertigo)
- Studio: uncertain
- Video: Popmart: Live from Mexico City, Elevation: Live from Boston, U2 Go Home: Live From Slane Castle (etc)
Notes: FIrst seen live during the 1997-1998 Popmart tour. The Edge used this Les Paul 30th Anniversary Goldtop for "Last Night On Earth" and "Hold Me, Thrill Me..."
That seem good? Plus I will put pics of each guitar.

I've met Dallas a number of times over the years, starting around the ZOO tours.
During the Elevation tour, I made some shirts that said: SCHOO 2. Dallas saw me wearing mine at the Oakland show and handed me one of The Edge's guitar picks.
A few days later in Los Angeles, I gave (1) to Dallas and (1) to The Edge. The crew must have seen the shirts because someone took the idea a little farther and made "SCHOO 2: Close To The Edge" shirt for all of the crew for closing night of Elevation in Miami. SOMEWHERE I've a picture of one of the crew wearing one... I'll have to search my computer.
I'd often see Dallas around 3pm when he'd finished his setup or at times after shows. Always one for a smile and a kind word. And always willing to answer basic questions. By that meaning he's not at liberty to tell you the exact effects chain and settings for a song but if you've a question about a guitar or piece of gear he's always been kind enough to answer.
During the Vertigo shows, I had GA tickets for most of the shows that I attended. The two spring `05 LA shows being the only one's that I had seats.
At LA # 1, I was sitting in my seat with my SCHOO 2 shirt on. While most were starting to enter the arena, WHO crossed over the bar at the bottom of the seats and starts walking up my aisle but Dallas Schoo! He looked over and saw my shirt and let out a big "Hey buddy" and shook my hand. We talked for a few mins and then he had to go to the doors to get someone in. So I'm sitting there and 5 mins later... a tap on my shoulder... It's Dallas again! This time with his wife and some friends. He'd stopped to introduce them to me! Another show of what a nice guy and class act that Dallas Schoo truly is. We talked for a few mins and then he had to get back to work... he handed me a few picks and off he went.

Dallas Schoo - the unsung hero of U2. Without him, Edge would be in a mess and the band wouldn't be the live force they are today.
All hail the Schoo!
