Celebrity Quote Of The Day: Bono Paints The Edge
BONO - Mr G9 - is in conversation with, well, with the world. He considers the Edge, U2’s guitarist:
“The Edge finds some new colours for the spectrum of rock. Colours he now owns. Owning a colour, wow. Imagine owning the colour yellow, like Van Gogh. Edge owns, well I’m not exactly sure what colours they are… indigo or violet or crimson? But you sense an emotional colour temperature that is unique to him. It’s his palette we’re painting from.”
Starry, starry, starry, starry, starry, starry, starry, starry night…Weathered faces lined in pain…

“Textural” can mean lumpy and uneven - it certainly doesn’t seem like a compliment! but then I’ve never exactly been blown away by his twanging technique…

The Edge plays what I’ve heard described as “Textural” guitar.
Which means that in the conventional technical sense he’s not that good.
But he makes pleasing sounds never the less,
Go with what you have I always say.
For the last 50 years I’ve been conning people into thinking I’m a good keyboard player. (I’m decent but not that good)
Like Edge I do what I can as well as I can and it sounds ok.
Unlike Edge I didn’t get rich doing it.
