from our lovely adam, he speaks about his clothing:
"Yeah, I think I'd be a much better woman than I am a man. I think my talents are more in that direction.
I don't mind dressing up, I don't think it makes much difference, not really. I'd love to wear women's underwear if the sizes were right but they don't really support you, you just tend to flop one way or the other." - Adam
(LOL his "talents".. ! what does he mean?!)
Q: What do you do with the money you would have spent on drink?
Adam:
I buy socks. I'm the kind of rich that likes a familiar pair of socks. You know, when you're on that party trip socks and underwear are hard to keep together.
Q: Adam, you are, arguably, the best dressed man in rock. How do you do it?
Adam: That's definitely arguable if you talk to me other three mates.
Adam: You know, there probably isnt a better gig out there, so what else would I do? I'm not sure that I'm that into trout.
Interviewer: Golf?
Adam:
No! Terrible clothes!
"Adam was just getting people to do him up in the back and swapping makeup tips with any girl that passed.
You know suddenly he could own up to being interested in their underwear!" - Bono, regarding the making of the One video
"
I'll tell you, you learn a lot about women from dressing up in women's clothes! You learn that when a woman asks you "Do I look alright?" what she's reallysaying is "I have just spent alot of time making myself uncomfortable. If I go out in this condition will I look foolish, or is it worth it?". When you ask a woman to go out to dinnerit's not like asking one of your mates. She has to stop and think, "Hmm, dinner. That will be four hours of being uncomfortable." And if she says yes and then after four hours you say,"Lets go dancing, let's go to a club," and she says "No, I want to go home," it's because she has figured on four hours and now those four hours are up and she can only think of getting home and out of those clothes!" (and into his!)
"Men should not be forced to wear pants when it's not cold."
"At school he stuck out like a sore thumb.
He used to drink coffee in class and the teachers got used to it.
He wore a kilt. He also took off his clothes at one rehearsal when he got very excited." - Bono, on Adam

"You preach what you need to hear. You sing your life,
and you want it to count, I suppose."
