I still haven't found out why...

[madzia]

...edgie-wedgie-poo-poo looks so pissed of in this video...

Is it because Bono keeps spitting into his ear while singin' ? Or is it because Adam didn't share his beer with him?

Any suggestions? This question keeps returning to me from time to time since 80's... please help...

I've noticed that too. I think it is because Bono was singing in Edge's ear. Wouldn't YOU be mad if that happened to YOU?

I thought he was just deliberately playing the straight man to Bono's goofy man, not that he was pissed. I wondered if that video was where Edge got his reputation for not being a talker.

Both: Adam snuck off with his cigarrettes and alcohol, leaving poor Edge to bear the brunt of Bono's exuberant expectorating. .or at least that's my reading of it

good question...i kind of thought the same thing (edgie was pissed), but now it looks like he was just being himself....shy, quiet, allowing Bono to bask in the glory.

Maybe cause Bono gets to hug and dance all the ladies, but Edge is playing his guitar and doesn't have a free hand....

Maybe he isn't the shy, bashful Edge we assumed him to be...

Hehe...my theory is that Edge wanted to play in traffic with Adam and Larry who got to play around in the video...poor Edgie had to stand by Bono while Larry and Adam got to play in traffic

I agree. I always thought that Edge was concentrating real hard to keep from laughing his arse off whenever Bono started singing in his ear.

I wondered if that video was where Edge got his reputation for not being a talker.

I remember last year at the Grammies how Jon Stewart was like "Wow! The Edge talked! I can't believe this! He's still going on backstage, they can't shut him up now!" LMAO

Oh yeah! I remember that ! I was LMAO so hard that night. PRICELESS

 

[Mullen-Girl]

LMAO...you know i've noticed that too in the vid and if you play close attention when Bono is singing some part and Edge is playing the guitar behind him he shoots him the finger lmao...it's funny...

It's about time Edge talked

He's funny...who would have thought that he would be on TV seen by millions talking about an orgasmatron??? LOL

Sorry for the stupid wuestion, but last year during the Grammy's my friend kept switching the channels to Temptation Island, and I missed this comment!! What did he say?? What the hell is an orgasmatron???

 

[u2loopy]

I think Edge is trying to give the impression that he's still "waiting around" because he "Still hasn't found...." etc. etc. I love it though, the way he

at Bono!!

Either that or he's probably just p.o'd cuz he lost a couple'a bucks in the slots!!

LMAO AWWWWWW you missed the orgasmatron speech...well if I can remember correctly he was like:

...and we've had so many technological advances, now we have cell phones that you can throw away after using them and orgasmatraons!
Audience: *gasp* *laugh*
Bono:*softly* But he doesn't need one *mumbles* with all the kids he's got

LMAO I remember it...I couldn't stop laughing at the orgasmatron comment...it was so Un-Edge like lol

Okay!! Ha Ha!! Perhaps this is another stupid question, but what the hell is an orgasmatron???

And Bono shouldn't talk, he is married to Ali (Pex dispenser)!!!

 

[AM]

Edges mood gets worse and worse as the video goes along. WHY? Cause Bono acts like a fool and teases poor Edge all the time. He should have taken his guitar and slapped it around Bono?s face

That?s what I?d done, anyway

My all mighty father had something to say about the part where Bono is singing in Edge's ear, "What, is he pretening to be a drill sargent now?" Oh my dad...(when they share a microphone to sing, he asks if they are checking each other's breath)
