    Well... The `ho's "It's Hard" should have been entitled "It's Limp". Not such a good record. That album need Viagra.
  2. NICE RACK !!!



    While The Edge has two refrigerator sized racks full of effects and goodies, Bono has an assortment of toys too. The fact that there is some amount of thought to this shows that Bono does actually play a bit of guitar. Sure he's no The Edge but he's far better than most give him credit.

    Here's a bit more of Bono's Vertigo tour goodies...



    T'is a bit odd that Bono was travelling with FOUR Gretsch Irish Falcons and TWO Gigson Elvis Presley Doves, being that he played less guitar on Vertigo than he had since... probably before The Joshua Tree tour.

  3. What with all your semi-perverse puns?

    Whatever do you mean? It IS a nice rack. (Daddy like, Daddy like!!!)

    Me thinks thou doth protest to much.

    After all, it was your perverse mind that thought perversely.



    (hahahahahaha)

    I stand by my first assessment... NICE RACK !!!

  7. Can you think of a really creative one?

    I thought those were quite creative.
  9. Besides, the 'puns' weren't the point. The showing of some of Bono's instruments and effects were the point.
  10. If I were going for puns I'd have referred to a nice pair of "Birds", as both guitars are named after birds (Falcon and Dove)

    Buy anyroad...

    Seems Gretsch has changed the finish of the Irish Falcon from it's initial "Everygreen" finish to the darker, and in my view more pleasant, Cadillac Green... similar to the colour of Bono's 1959 Gretsch Country Club - which was his main Elevation electric before the arrival of the Irish Falcons.

  11. The puns are not lost on me Jeff, a little too much along the lines of the uncle at a wedding's type of humour but still, your energies are not entirely wasted!

    Nice pics of Bono's kit - I wouldn't want an Irish Falcon myself BUT you can't deny they're charismatic guitars in their own right.

    I would love one! I love white falcons in general - not just for looks and design but tone. The lighter green "everygreen" never set well with me. So yeah... If they have truly gone to the cadillac vs. everygreen finish, I wouldn't mind one.
