Well hello, The intro to Zoo Station was in fact sung in English but due to heavy treatments to the vocal it is hard to make out, but, it goes something like this: Whooooooaaaaaaa, I could have lost you. Woooooooaaaaaaa, I could have let you go. Slipping through the cracks. Slipping through...

Comparing Bon Jovi With U2 ????????????? Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!! It's a good job I'm...

It makes me laugh that just because Edge doesn't (NOT can't) play three thousand notes per second covering every semitone of the fretboard in four bars he is judged not to be a great guitarist. A fast player is 'technically' very good but BORING. (my opinion!!) Most fast playing consists of...

I use the yellow .73mm Dunlop Tortex Fins. These have the 'bumps' on one edge that you use to strike the strings to get that Edge 'twang'. Peace!

The more I listen, the more I hear: Alex Descends Into Hell.... Towards the end of the first vocal section it sounds like the choirboy wants a "Small Chinzano" and Another Time Another Place - In the part where Bono seems to adlib he's going on about "Lemon Cheescake" I'm hearing things...

OOOPS!

Could someone please explain the lyric: She stands with a naked flame I stand with the sons of Cain Burned by the fire of love Especially the 'sons of Cain' line as I can't find any reference to Cain having any son's (although I haven't really looked all that hard!) Thankyou muchly

Hi, I am by no means an expert on the subject but the way I understand and use the delay works very well indeed. I have never used the Zoom system so am not familiar with it but reading user reviews there is a full delay effect built into the unit with the edit facility needed to alter the...

Urrrm..............Ahhhhhhh............Oh................nice day!

What do you mean 'WHAT?' Try reading Marik's post again, it's only at the top of the page! I think the words, "I'VE SEEN A TAB FOR THIS WICKED INTRO THEY DID DURING THE ELEVATION TOUR, YOU KNOW, THE SLOW, MAYBE 45 SEC INTRO" gives perhaps a slight hint to the fact that it IS the live version...

Please help, I am looking to buy a new effects unit but need to know what specification I need to look at to get one that changes cleanly between patches without a break in the signal so, for example, I can change from slight distortion to heavier distortion whilst still playing but without the...

The intro to The Fly is simply picked guitar notes played over a sequencer that produces that spacious, almost magical sound and feel. Basically the guitar part is as follows: E-----------------9----------------------------------5---------------------...

What's the problem with U2 cover bands then? I play U2 songs on guitar and would love to be in a cover band! Only two nights ago myself and my good lady went to see a U2 tribute band locally and they friggin' rocked. It put me on such a high and everyone in that place was was joining in...

Rules are made to be broken.

I saw Idlewild when they supported U2 at the MEN Arena in Manchester last August. Pretty cool sound!!

Please enlighten me as to what the hell 'sourdough' toast is. To me, Sour = Not a pleasant taste experience. Dough = Uncooked bread Educate an Englishman!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cheers mi' Dears!!

2079 What the hell happens when we get to 1 million?

DrMusk, One thing I forgot to inform you on is the vital importance of the pick that you use. To get that Edge sound, the 'twang' to the picked notes that is well known in the Edge sound, you have to use either the blue Herdim picks that the man himself uses or the Dunlop Tortex Fins picks...

I listened to a Vicar once tell a group of us that, basically, the only way to be 'saved' is to believe in God, Jesus etc and I never got to ask him this question: Who, out of these two people, would be 'saved.' A very religious person who studies the Bible / Koran, goes to church / mosque...

QUINTESSENTIAL

Why don't we just wait and see?!!!!!!

Bono's inspiration for the song Lemon was video footage of his mother wearing a 'Lemon' coloured dress("see-through in the sunlight" - "She wore Lemon" etc). The words enscribed in the gates to Bono's house include words from which U2 song?

Hi, It is difficult to reproduce Edge's exact sound on Streets. I have tried over and over again as I love playing this song on the old Strat. I have been told that most of the sound is the pure Vox AC30 with delay, but I just use slight distortion as too much will "muddy-up" the picked 6/8...

Can any sane, moral person really be against the Death Penalty when it comes to paedophile scum and child murderers. These sub-human Arseholes lose any human rights including the right to life when they commit these vile, wretched crimes. The only thing I have against the Death Penalty is that...

What the....? And there's me thinking that "how you use it" IS "the technique" Please explain!
