Adams Bass guitar technician (before Stuart)
Does anyone know who Adam's bass tech was before Stuart?
__________________As far as I can remember, Stuart became bass tech around Zoo TV. Steve Rainford was Edge's guitar technician before Dallas. |

From Page 304 of the book: U2 Show
__________________Band Crew Members: LARRY MULLEN JR / DRUMS: Tom Mullally - October tour through Conspiracy of Hope tour. Sam O'Sullivan - Joshua Tree to present EDGE / GUITARS Steve Rainford - War to Joshua Tree Dallas Schoo - Joshua Tree to present BONO / GUITARS Frasier McAllister - Unforgettable Fire to Popmart ADAM / BASS Stuart Morgan - ZOOTV to Present KEYBOARDS Des Broadberry - Conspiracy of Hope to Popmart It's possible that Bob Loney, listed as tech - Unforgettable Fire to Love Town (no further info) might have taken care of bass guitars. In the Boy to War era, it's quite possible that Steve Rainford took care of all guitars and bass guitars. |

The fact that Bono had a guitar tech makes me laugh. But I guess somebody had to do it.
In old videos, Steve Iredale brings Bono his guitar (this is Stevie, everybody!). Was he kind of the general stage tech back in the Boy-October tours? I read U2 Show years ago, but can't remember. I know Edge really only rotated between his black Strat and his Explorer in those days. Not really a bass guy, never paid attention to what Adam used or how many basses he had. |

In the Boy through War era, Adam used the Ibanez Musician and the Precision. So there were not a lot of work there. The Jazz bass seemed to come in during the UF tour.

But yeah, from a guitarist POV it does seem funny. |
