EDGEPRESSIONS!

[awakening]

This thread is for those of us who spent entire shows (heck, our entire lives) studying Edge in every minute detail and have acquired intimate knowledge of every single expression on Edge's face (that semi-grin, the eyes closed, the stern concentration, the open mouth..)and every movement of his body when he works magic on stage.

The first 3 were taken by yours truly

I just love the way he closes his eyes and gets entranced in the music

 

[U2Kitten]

Those are awesome, you sure were close!

Edge is a cutie, my favourite u2 member after Adam. And here?s my contribution

------------------
"The bass player's got it. The bass player's fucking got it." Bono, Boston 6-9-01

 

[awakening]

Thanks AM. Hey, can you explain you sig to me? What is the context of that quote?

 

[Ally]

hey awakening! i don't have any photos of it, but my favorite edge expression is when his eyes flutter in that weird way when he's playing the guitar.... it's so bizarre!

anyway, i hope you had a great trip- email or call me when you get a chance.

 

[Shygirl]

I totally know what you mean, I have spent long hours staring at that lovely face!
That quiet confidence he has just totally does it or me!!

By the way, great pics!!

Here's one of my favorite Edgepressions

when Bono makes him smile or laugh...

AW!!! Edge has an adorable smile!

*clunk* Mrs. Edge collapses as her heart explodes with adoration. It's a good thing she works in a hospital.

ALLY!!!!!!! Back to work, I guess? I'll call you tonight. Sorry I didn't yesterday...long long day.
Yes, the fluttering eyes....mmmm.......Impossible to get a photo of that.

So, here are three taken during band introductions. I just love the "Edgpressions" when Bono introduces him. The first pic is from San Jose 1, when Bono introduced Edge as " the man who derives sexual pleasure from collecting data". Right after this pic was taken, Edge lifted his hand and shook his finger as if to say "now don't you reveal my secrets. The second pic is from New Jersey 2, one of the many amazing photos that Sad Eyed Lady had taken. Here, Bono simply introduced Edge by saying "this is the Edge ...what an extraodinary thing it is, to be the Edge'.

"Today we're going to do something healthy," Adam announces in his curiously posh drawl, unfolding his deckchair and removing his T-shirt. "We're going to watch other people exercise."

"Sorry we couldn't sell these seats up here, 'cuz you couldn't get a view of Larry's arse, and we all know that's why you're here" Bono, Pittsburg Elevation
