Reason # 1, 008, 767 Why I Love Edge

[Gina Marie]

AW!!!!!!!!


Stuart Adamson, 1958-2001
U2.com, December 19, 2001


Following the death of Stuart Adamson, The Edge has spoken of his admiration for the Scotsman.

"I was very sorry to hear of the passing of Stuart Adamson. I was a fan of his both as guitar player and as a man.

He was a great inspiration to me when U2 were starting out. His first band The Skids made such a big noise and with songs like 'Into The Valley' and 'The Saints Are Coming' made most of the other music of the time seem mundane and insignificant.

Unfortunately The Skids didn't last long enough. I got to know Stuart when he was touring with Big Country - the group he founded and led after The Skids broke up. Big Country was all about Stuart, he did the singing and was the principal song writer and guitar player.

Stuart made some great music during his career and his character came through everything he did. He had a heart as big as a mountain and he was a real romantic soul. He will be missed by all who loved his music and even more by those lucky enough to know him personally."

He's so down to earth. What a beautiful heart he has *melts*

If you keep posting things like this Gina, I'll become an "Infidel" to Bono! Please: Have Mercy of a Bono adorer!!
Also u2, JessicaAnn, be careful!!!!

I just read this elsewhere, and sent a big mental hug Edge's way...gosh he's so great. What a way with words those boys have....

very sad about Stuart - I get so many conflicting feelings whenI hear about people with great talent who decide to end their lives....but perhaps with great talent comes great torment as well...case in point: Michael Hutchence and myriad others.

I just have a hard time with trying to wrap my mind around it sometimes...

I said that and then fell for Edge too. There's no harm in liking more than one, it's really quite fun

Double drool.

It was nice to wake up this morning to VH1 and see the scrolling bar on top of a video quoting Edge about Stuart Adamson. It made my morning to see that.
