so U2 has been going strong for going on 30 years now, although the last album I thought was any good came out back in 1993(or thereabouts)..

I heard them on a commercial (you've seen it) the other day and when I saw it for the first time and the opening chords began to emminate from Edge's guitar, I thought, "Hey cool, 'where the streets have no name' " But it wasn't 'Streets' it was some other song that's come out fairly recently..

my question or statement is this: In all those jam session and recording sessions, has no one in the band leaned over and asked Edge if he knew any other guitar riffs?? I mean he's been milking that riff for 25 years or more..

just food for thought.
