Hey, it's U2 related! U2 loved The Clash. Edge inducted them into the R&R HOF, and Bono sang snippets of "Rock The Casbah" during "Sunday Blood Sunday" on the Vertigo tour.

Gotta love The Clash. Okay, you don't "gotta" but ya SHOULD!

Good sir, I do believe that all that caffeine has risen up from the depths and caught you in the clappers!

(whatever the clappers may well be...)

Indeed. Guilty (caffeinated) as charged.

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.
