  1. They're all legendary chaps, I mean, they each have their own qualities and I guess falldowns, but hell, they are human lol..for me though, it's gonna have to be Edge or Adam tied for first, Bono and Larry coming a close tied second...

    Edge is a musical innovator, an "original guitar hero" (as stated by the one and only Mr. Springsteen), is the least up himself lead guitarist to have ever lived and just a great guy, whilst no one else holds a bass guitar quite like Adam Clayton, and I love just his general approach to everything.

    What I love most about them all is that they don't pretend to be anything that they're not a great combination of guys
  2. I feel the need to ammend my previous post.

    The girl in me says Larry but the music lover in me says Edge. He's a great guitar player and just so friggin cool. I love to watch him play, so laid back but really intense. He's the perfect yin to Bono's yang (yeah, that sounds dirty...)

    Appearances can be deceiving eh? To quote Bono, "never pick a fight with a man who makes a living from hand-to-eye coordination!". I agree with you about Edge having that intensity, I mean, the live solo to Love Is Blindness, it's ferocious, has so much energy, yet you watch him and you'd think he was making a cup of coffee. He seems to release his anger and frustration out through music, which is part of why I think he's one of the great figures in modern music - he doesn't just write and make music, he lives it. Sunday Bloody Sunday and Wake Up Deadman, both songs that he played a major figure in writing on a lyrical level, and it really speaks out...I suppose it's the same with Bono, but he's so much more overt, it's just part of his makeup, whereas with Edge you have to go deeper to get some kinda idea of him...
  6. How about, as an extension, what band member do you think you're most like?

    It'd be Edge for me; I'm subtle and ironic in my humor, commonly seen with loudmouths, and always thinking one step ahead.
    Though most times I wish I were more like Bono, able to just act on my emotions instead of thinking them through.

    I think I'd probably go with Adam. I'm perfectly content hanging out in the shadows, just doing my thing. Although, that could mean I'm Larry.....

    I see that more as Adam than Larry. Larry to me seems like a big presence, really dependent on everything and everyone else in the band (obviously, since he's the drummer). Adam it seems to me would be fine in his own little bubble, like you say.

    Call me Adam, then!
  10. Well... I'm the one running around in school putting up Peace-posters and wearing coexist and One t-shirts, but I don't think that makes me more alike Bono that I wish I was. I think I'm some mixture between Adam and Larry...in some...weird way. I'm kinda laid back, doinf my own thing...But I'm not as serious as Larry seems to be. I'm silly.
  11. Edge seems kinda like a smart ass (in a subtle way). I can relate to that.
  12. I've been told I'm like Larry. Surly, sarcastic, and fairly low-key.
