A Day in the Life of Edge (by Bono)

26 Sep 2006
A remarkable new film, shot and directed by Bono, in which the man they call The Edge takes us on a tour of one ordinary day in his life. (more)

In this ground-breaking, high-quality (hand-held) documentary, discover for the first time what life is really like for the guitarist in a legendary rock'n'roll band: see how he responds when he is awoken by the singer two hours before he intended being awoken; learn about his choice of caffeine intake and his strenuous fitness regime; see how he dramatically turns the table on the 'pavarotti' who stalk the lives of the celebrated with their long lenses - and then how he chases them down the beach; discover who has the most clothes backstage and find out just how much earlobe a U2 crew member should reveal.

'I don't want to be in the news,' Edge complains from under his pillow, as Bono rouses him at the crack of dawn. But for one day in Miami, in the middle of a a rock'n'roll tour, Edge is the news.

Edge unexpurgated and uncut - you've never seen anything quite like it.
