Does U2 care about the Olympics at all? I was wondering if they were in town at all during the Olympics or took in any events..

god damn! if i'd been in new zealand for the whole olympics i'd have probably seen it, but nbc must have been too busy covering lindsey vonn or bode miller or lindsey vonn to tell us anything else.

rage.

Since Edge cannot compete for Ireland, Gavin Friday took his place in the four man. However, Edge BUILT the sled.

I can't believe there aren't any photos of them yet.

 

[Pop Artist]

He may have more recently, but he was still using his British passport in the 90s. I also seem to recall an interview where he said he kept his British citizenship as a nod to his parents.

Imagining Bono, Adam, Larry and Edge in the tight-fitting, leave-nothing-to-the-imagination bobsled suits

They both have a British and an Irish passport.
