Edge a stingy tipper!?

[redhotswami]

melon martini?! wtf?

 

[Bonochick]

No idea if this is true or not, of course...and it really doesn't change anything for me...but it does make me wonder...

Guys, would you be more embarrassed about the general public finding out that you are a bad tipper or that you ordered a melon martini?

 

[phillyfan26]

Since when is a $2 tip for a drink stingy? What, because he's The Edge and can afford it? OK that's cool...so when my broke ass goes to some club I guess I can get in for no cover and get nickel Guinness because I'm poor, right? No? Didn't think so. So STFU.

Bingo.

 

[Galeongirl]

A MELON martini???? lawd Edge, that's gross!


fail... really big fail...


and yes, it's common knowledge that Bono and Edge never carry cash.... or at least small change, since Bono gave a homeless guy who was standing next to the Clarence a 100 euros note last year with christmas... or could've been the year before....
but it's been said in a couple of interviews and I think in Bill Flanagan's book that the melodic half of the band rarely have cash on them...

 

[phillyfan26]

Uh, define common knowledge.

 

[xaviMF22]

fuck the Edge

The revelations uncovered in this thread have saddened me greatly.

I assume by "revelation" you mean that Edge drinks melon martinis?

Not too many though, you're paying.

 

[U2girl]

And was Edge supposed to tip the guy for the free drinks?

Wait, the waiter bought Edge a drink and not the other way around AND the waiter got a tip ?

mmm

 

[AchtungTiger]

friend of mine used to work in a high class motel in Sydney city where Edge was staying.

this is back in late 80s when they toured here

anyway the guy was in the elevator goign down when Edge got in.

Edge asked how his night has been and my friend said going great and "having a nice birthday" (was friend birthday that day")


edge said " happy birthday" and pulled out a wad of cash and gave him $500

But isn't it "common knowledge" that Adam doesn't drink these days?

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

...double post

Indeed. I have this mental picture of Edge acting like J.D. from Scrubs now, and it's really not the way I'd like to picture Edge acting at a bar.

 

[Sicy]

Drinks are freakin expensive as it is. I tip $1 for one drink.

I'm glad i'm not alone! I see "melon martini" and think of JD ordering an appletini.

....which is why he's the best to "share" a beer with. Adam = 0%, me = 100% of Guinness goodness!

 

[FitzChivalry]
