  1. Hmm. I have a feeling they wouldn't do the show if one of them wasn't there now. The ZooTV show had to be done without Adam i think. Wasn't it more less the dress rehearsal and sound and video check for the Sydney movie? As for the early years, they were kids, they were trying to make a career, the show always had to go on. Now, I think they would re-do the show at the end of the tour. Their core, the four of them, is the very spirit of U2, and they've said that themselves. So I think they would just reschedule. If not, Dallas would undoubtedly fill in for Edge.

    I think they recorded 2 nights in sydney, so they chose the second night with adam for video/dvd material of course, as far as I know.. ?

    Well, they did 2 shows in Sydney and the one which Adam missed was essentially the dress rehearsal - the 2nd show was the one that went onto film, and that was when Adam dragged himself back onstage

    I hear what you say about the 4 being the spirit of U2, but I was just wondering out aloud, really - just thinking whether it would ever be a possibility?
  4. No one, I repeat NO ONE can fill in for The Edge.

    He says diplomatically
  6. I acomplished my first dutie managing, my friends band. I found tham a bass player. Afforementioned bass player has fringe benefits. His uncle, owns a guitar store in Florida, and has allegedly had famous customers.

    I wonder, if Edge ever had to miss a gig (I know Larry missed one or two during the early years, and then there's Adam's fiasco during the last leg of ZooTV), would it be feasible to think that Dallas might fill in for him?


    Originally, when Adam was 'missing' that day, Edge said HE'D play bass and asked Dallas to play guitar.

    But cooler heads prevailed and it was decided that the fans might forgive Stuart on bass more than Edge on bass and Dallas on guitar.

    That said, Dallas is skilled and could certainly cover the parts.
  8. On a side note... I say we need a "Return of The Daltons" for an opening act.
