Hypothetical question...

[clementine_rose]

Here's the premise...U2 never existed. You're a career counselor...what job would you recommend for each guy in the band & why?

Anyone wanna play?

 

[Lisa71]

Larry=drill sargent teehee
Bono=actor
Adam=used car salesman teehee
Edge=engineer

 

[RockNRollDawgie]

Larry=The "next" James Dean
Bono= Politician
Adam=Secret Agent
Edge=Inventor Of Time Travel Machine

 

[isabella]

Larry= porn star
Bono= politician
Adam= professional crossdresser like RuPaul
Edge= I think Lisa had it right with engineer

 

[isabella]

Oops! I didnt see you put Politician for Bono RockNRollDawgie,sorry. I do think Bono would be excellent at that though.

 

[starsgoblue]

Bono: superhero with a day job as a humanitarian
Edge: musical/movie producer or director...or mad scientist
Larry: "dancer"
Adam: sugar daddy

 

[madonna's child]

Bono - playwright
Edge - mad scientist
Larry - truck driver
Adam - vineyard owner

 

[riderka]

Do you know that The Edge wanted to be a doctor??
I read somewhere.

 

[clementine_rose]

Bono-Carpenter...have you seen his hands

Edge-Zooligist...I heard he loves the Discovery channel..remember the owls.

Adam-Gigolo

Larry-Harley Davidson salesman or curator at Graceland

 

[wild honey 7]

Larry - soccer player

Adam - teacher

Bono - writer

Edge - scientist

Do you know that The Edge wanted to be a doctor??
I read somewhere.

He's sure smart enough to be one Could you imagine... what if he was YOUR doctor... Whoa... I wonder if I would still think he was hott... probably not... but ya never know! I'm in love with my dad's doc Talk about one fricken hottie ( he's young though )

Bono should be some kind of an artist. We get so used to seeing him singing and doing political work, but really the man's a lyrical genius! He could write books, poetry, paint, probably do anything of that sort. I can picture him as a starving artist who has to do some shitty job all day long to get by.

 

[celia]

OoO how fun!:

Bono: book writer
Edge: heart surgeon
Larry: fire fighter
Adam: pub landlord

 

[Souly]

Larry: fire fighter

Larry - soccer player

My favorite options so far...

 

[youtwohearts]

Bono-I know it is posted already but Politician, what else???
The Edge-A writer, I think he has a lot to say
Adam-A producer, something behind the scenes
Larry-A teacher, shop teacher who teaches motorcycle driving on the side

 

[Phalanx]

Larry: Contractor
Adam: Fashion Designer
Edge: Mechanical Engineer
Bono: Poet/Thespian

 

[UltraVelvet]

Larry: Mechanic - owns own shop, specialises in bikes, obviously. Staff tshirts by Gucci - LOL, I'm having visions of him in jeans & a grubby blue Elevation shirt with a logo & his name on the left side - Plays in local country cover band Friday nights, too.

Adam: After many years managing supermodels, he gets out of the high flying lifestyle and goes back to Howth to open a nursery/garden supply business, because doesn't he love his garden? I picture him with a pipe, floppy hat & the popmart overalls for some reason.

Edge: I don't think we can go past engineer, can we? Maybe IT Manager somewhere, just to give him another option (still lots of toys & problem solving though ). Dallas would be along side still, in a tech support role.

Bono: The Pope! Oh, alright, maybe something a little more ordinary like CEO of the W.H.O (World Health Organisation).

hee ~~Ultra

 

[Lisa71]

Edge-Zooligist...I heard he loves the Discovery channel..remember the owls.

That was too funny!

I like the option of Adam being a Fashion Designer! I couldn't think of anything good for him, but that seems to fit.

 

[clementine_rose]

I wonder what profession the guys would like to have been in if they hadn't made it as U2? They need to get on here and let us know what they think. I know we all would like to know.

 

[TheWho4Life]

A Zooligist... lmao! hey, I'm doin a powerpoint presentation on taht job man! Talk about lots of Education involved But it does sound pretty cool to have

 

[verte76]

Bono says he would have become a speechwriter if he hadn't become a rock star. Either that or a teacher............Edge would have been a Ph.D. scientist, Larry a professional motorcyclist, Adam, something quiet, I dunno exactly.

 

[Ashley]

LOL. This thread is great!

 

[Ashley]

Okay...now that I've done some thinking....

: manager of a top supermodel agency
: head supervisor of a Harley Davidson division
: veterinarian
: international bureaucrat for the U.N.

Edge already gave his answer to that (I asked him... ) - he would have been a clamper!

[TheWho4Life]

[u2bonogirl]

bono: my husband of course! oh and i guess he would have to work so...the sexy poetry professor at a college

adam: hugh heffners successor

larry: police chief with a side job fixing bikes out of his garage

edge: mad scientist/ inventor....with a bad habit of clamping cars
i think he would invent the best guitar effects program ever made and come up with a real hair growth potion....

That's ok Great minds think alike. hehe

 

[tiger_luver64]

Clamper.... that's my new word man... and now i knwo what it mean!!!!!!!

 

[starsgoblue]

I don't think Bono would nessacarily be a good politician....I think that'd give him the willies. He deals with the swarmy politicians because he HAS to to do his humanitarian work....
