In Defense of Sparky...

[Hallelujah Here She Comes]

Ok. So I was out with one of my "friends" last night when I realized that I hadn't told her about my trek to the St. Louis show, which is a moderatly amusing story. So I did. When I got to the part how Larry gave me his drumstick (in other news: EEEEEEEE!!!

) she, like most people who aren't massively obsessively huge U2 fans did not appear to be impressed to my satisfaction. When I questioned her about this, she said something like "No, no. It's really cool. I can imagine how amazing it would be to get, say, Keith Moon's drumstick" (assume for the sake of conversation that Keith Moon is *not* dead). The I said, tongue firmly planted in cheek, "Well, this is even cooler cause Larry Mullen is HOTT!!" To which SHE said "Yeah. He's cute. But that bass player is kind of gross-looking." <--

It doesn't end there.

So after I retracted my claws from her eyes, she dared to further disparage Sparky's looks! And I quote: "There's this guy in my dorm who has a U2 poster. He said he really likes it because you know it's a good photo of U2 cause even the bass player looks hot."

AAAAAARGH!!! In what universe is Adam NOT hot?!!? Can someone explain this to me??? I managed to refrain myself from physically harming this girl, but only because I couldn't really get a good shot in from across the table. But THIS MUST NOT STAND!

So I ask you, women of PLEBA: post every and all pictures you can find that serve as testimony to the undeniable hotness of Adam Clayton.

To begin:

humina humina...

She said what?????

Personally, I think you should reconsider hanging out with a friend like that!!! What kind of person would say such things about Sparky??? He is one hot looking hunk-o-man and anyone with taste would think so!!!

 

[mocool12]

NAAAWWWW!!!! Adam is such a hottie!! I'm so busy swooning over Edge all the time that I never mention it though... He's adorable!

Don't deny:

Cuuute:

DAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

 

[wildhoney22]

*lunges in front of sexy Adam to protect him*

Ouch, insults hurt

How could your firend say that? Do I have to put up the pic of the AB cover to prove that he is hot... I think not. But I will post Adam pics anyways.

*Adam crush slowly rising*

i feel for your friend...actually i don't, since everyone is entitled to their opinion.
i have been dealing with ppl like her since the adam fro days, they just don't get it and they never will.
anyway, if it were up to me, i would post all my sparky pics, since he looks hot in every single one. unfortunately, i have a ton of studying to do, so i will keep it short and sweet.
i think he looks especially HOT in this one. Enjoy ladies!

AdAm RoCkS!!!

I was just looking at that pic today in the car while my mommy was in some random store with her friend (LOL at the fact we just got this car on Friday, and I already have U2 stuff shoved in the backseat) anyway, I was gawking at Adam's arms...great googly moogly they are hot. And I turned my friends all onto Adam, pat myself on the back, for all the Adam naysayers, I added to more to the Adam fans

Spreadin the Sparky love!

I love this one! Especially because it was taken at the United Center just hours before I saw Sparky in all his glory right in front of me. And yeah, he sure looked hot that night!!! (Hallelujah can back me up on this, and I'm sure she will.) Here's one I took of him ... that is, if Webshots decides to work...

Yes, he changed his shirt.

I think Edge is the only one who didn't.

You know, some of the best things in life are acquired tastes... fine wines, great music, delicasy type food... Adam is the same way. He's an acquired taste but I digress...

ADAM CLAYTON IS THE SEXIEST BASS PLAYER IN THE WORLD!!!! WOOOOO!!!!!

*fans self* is it hot in here? Kinda steamy, wouldn't ye say?

That's what I have to say.

Go ADAM!!

Ah, how well you know me, my dear. But, yes, he was lookin' especially scrumdidlyumptious that night.

Hey, can anyone find me the pic from this past tour of Adam playing without his shirt on? Cause Adam *with* the super-cool red and black camo pants and *without* a shirt on =

EXACTLY!! Adam is *so* like a fine wine: rich, classy, smooth, full of flavor, best when aged...and he goes well with a side of risotto

Seriously, I couldn't agree more.

BWAHAHAHAHA!!! *DEFINITELY* the second one. But why can't *I* kiss and make it better

BTW, *thank you* hippy for rescuing this glorious, glorious celebration of all things Sparky. To continue the festivities:

Who says young Sparky wasn't hot?

And, lo, it came to pass that the father bequeathed his hotness unto the son...

No comment needed:

You know, this isn't the shirtless concert pic I was looking for, but it'll do quite nicely I think...

Ok, ignore the fact that Monsieur Mullen is lookin' mighty fine and concetrate on how cute Sparky looks sipping out of his straw!

OMD! Does anyone remember that song "Sipping Cider Through A Straw"? It's one of those things that comes back to haunt you

I remember singing it in GS camp a loooooooooooooooooong time ago...*giggle* Am I just crazy that this pic makes me think of that? Damn, I'm a kooky one
