We have all heard the post-2000 comments by Larry disapproving of Bono's extra-cirlicular buddy photo-ops,etc, and of course the tension around AB's creation- and the story of Larry missing a ride to rehearsal. And even in the early days Edge allegedy punching Bono in the face and he tossed the drum kit.
But besides these common-knowlege stories, I was wondering about the lesser talked about friction between Edge and Adam. The only quote that comes to mind right now is Edge saying something like "there are many stories of how each band member has been there for me. There have been periods of time when Adam and myself didnt get along, but yet when I left my 1st wife, I stayed at Adam's place". I dont know where this quote is from, or what time period, but I'm interested as to if we can narrow down the time frame. It sounds like it was pre-AB, the way Edge makes it sound like he stayed with Adam despite having differences in the past. Of course, he could have just worded it that way, and the friction happen after AB.
Maybe Edge took it most to heart after the missed Sydney gig? Maybe it dates back as far as the Shalom days?
Anyone have any insight to offer?
Not a somewhat related note, I know Bono has talked about friction with Gavin/Guggi over some time, and then he came back to them more grounded. I zeroed it down to some time between '82-'86- but have no idea how long it lasted within those years. There are conflicting stories of which year on Bono's b-day he got his car TP'ed as a joke, and it occured to me this incident may have actually been part of the tension and not just a friendly prank. any Insight?
