Edge you're an exceedingly great guitarist. Truly I mean it. I really dig the guitar, I grew up with it and I could listen to you play from now until I die. You're a show stealer man

we know and you have our respect for that! that's what makes you The Edge!

Maybe Edge is jamming with the wrong folks or just plain no good at it. I have a hard time believing his opinion would remain the same if he tried playing with Trey Anastasio, Warren Haynes, Derek Trucks, Jimmy Herring, Tim Reynolds or a true legend like Buddy Guy or Eric Clapton. Improvisational live playing is free-form composing (which Edge claims he loves) on the fly in a live group setting. I don't understand how a living changing free-flowing composition in front of an audience can be boring. But Edge's attitude toward it sure is. I guess Jazz is just endless, directionless noodling around some nondescript chord progressions too.

To be able to play like the greats, would be to be able to play like U2. No other band has or can come close to that. Looking forward to the 2010 tour!

I need to dance, I need to fly, I need to feel. I trust you "The Edge", only you can do that can fly again as in "until the end of the word" or "mysterious ways". Let your guitar sound and up to infinity. In order to fly, so in order to feel and be happy. I know you can.

Some of the best stuff comes out of a good jam.

well, for what i read so far in "U2 by U2", i'd say Edge is traumatized by the firsts rehearsals ;)

ROCK AND ROLL IS ABOUT THE GITAR, DEAR U2 FANS, NOTHING NEW UNDER THE SKY. HOPE U2 WILL PLAY THIS SUMMER IN ENSCHEDE: THE GROLSCH-VESTE: ROCK AND ROLL IN THE FLAT LAND WITHE THE BEST BEER ON EARTH:PEACE ON EARTH, VREDE OP AARD! BEST BAND MEETS BEST BEER AND OUDIANCE! THAKS: DETLEV LASSCHE FROM OLDENZAAL, THE NETHERLAND (VERTIGO_HUNTER).

YES WE NEED A "little frisson" for next shows!!! Hope there will new songs that it is sure we will ENJOY!!! Thank you

to get towards the new and innovative it is a great aspiration, to be in full immersion in the sound and create then the own vibe,this gives an unmistakable mark, to me. Emulation is a good way to practise instead

Maybe, it is just because it is in our DNA, that we will listen to the Edge and his friends until the end of the world.

I also don't like "jamming." I'm in a band that is just starting out, so there are tons of other kids who play guitar, all they know how to do is "jam." When I first started playing guitar, I couldn't wait to be in the room with another guitar player. The problem is, those people are just "guitarists." They idolize that one instrument and plan on making noise with it. Not trying to create something that makes the composer say "Wow." Edge, thank you for not enjoying the "jam."

I'll second that Yogic. Sure looked like he a great time jamming in that flick! Take your oscar, Edge! <3

Hey Edge... Never would have guessed By It Might Get Loud that jaming isn't your fav... Oscar performance : ). Invention not emulation...soooo nice when the view is fresh and new that discovery floats from the heart and expresses itself through the hands of creativity... U2 is all Heart... And #1 : ).
