Adam Clayton gives a tour

[Bassmate]

Best bass player in the world, anyone who says different is just jealous and/or retarded.

[glenclosed]

worst "bass Player" I've ever heard.

[simthebest9281]

@glenclosed no one asked you to hear him... it doesn't need your appreciation to be great!

[pedrocantina]

It's interesting. He actually developed the lisp from playing gay basslines. Fact.

[toolbass24]

Adam is such a good bassist!!!

[Ausiz]

@toolbass24 Well actually as a bass player he's not very good. He just plays very basic bass lines and lacks more advanced playing skills. On the other hand he's bass player of one of the most famous rock band in the world...so yeah :)

[toolbass24]

@Ausiz awww man! have you heard Mysterious Ways. The bass lines for many U2 songs carry the song. He's actually quite good. But hes no Flea or Geddy Lee :)

[glenclosed]

@toolbass24

Nope

[jezza10181]

Adam is great yes... a true english gent

[VMobber]

My biggest dream is to meet him someday...

[Zenon2006]

Adam just seems so cool. If I could hang out with one member of U2 it would be Adam.

[EnigmaComposer]

"he has his hair dried and reset, and coloured sometimes" lol adam is hilarious

[111smilesalot]

1:03 That's some package!! :)

[knarisa]

Hahaha! good eye

[111smilesalot]

@knarisa you'd have to blind not to see that!!

[Chriss44]

What's so funny at 0:53?

[Vittoria10538]

Adam's lisp is (or was, then) due to braces. I'm another middle aged braces wearer, and I have the same thing.

[harrifan71]

Had a dream last night that I was hanging out with Adam, very cool. Hope to see him with U2 in the fall.

[dragannov]

man, I just can't belive !!!!!

I also had a dream that you were hanging out with Adam....

[kennymelodica]

Go Adam!!! you rock !!!!!!

[criskite]

Adam Rules!! He is THE BASS PLAYER!!!

[Soh2k8]

You gotta love edges huge guitar effects rack!But there is a unit called the Axe Fx Ultra that can replace all that in a 2 rack space.Still its a great signal path to have! Love Edges 1975 cream Gibson Les Paul Custom beside the rack at the beginning!

[yesiplayguitar]

I didn't know had Adam had a lisp!

[maddermofo]

what have you got against lisps??

[yesiplayguitar]

Just watch the movie "My Fair Lady" and you will understand! and I never knew Adam talked with a lisp! He never did in the 80's! I saw some interviews during the Joshua Tree tour on Much Music! (Canada's MTV)

[maddermofo]

I don't think Adam or anybody who is burdened with the misfortune of having a lisp would have a laugh at 'My fair lady'.

[MaryJosette80]

Maybe he just had something in his mouth which probably explains the "lisp". But then again, he still provides U2's badass bass with or without lisp.

[yesiplayguitar]

Agreed! He does provide solid bass lines! I really didn't mean anything about it! It just weird hearing him now compared to back in the 1980's!

[MaryJosette80]

You're forgiven, mate. We can only hope his dental problem won't interfere his musical skills. :)

[nicocollard23]

Don't quote me on this, but I've got a behind the scenes DVD for HTDAAB and it looked like Adam had braces on his bottom teeth...

If he did and he still had them on in 2006, it probably caused the lisp...

[JBraden]

haha, that's funny. thanks for posting. as an american who was blessed to live in OZ for a few years growing up, i know how loved U2 are in Australia. It seems to me in interviews they really enjoy being there, they seem to grant more interviews and show a more relaxed, human side than often in the US. great to see, cheers.

[parklife101]

CLAYTON! CLAYTON! CLAYTON!

[ToulacAxeHand]

The interviewer's ace!

[Hughezy]

i've always wondered what would happen if they needed a piss during a show

[elenoira]

I LOVE THIS VIDEO

[mcphistorare]
