Not guitar realated, but is it true Edge used to own a house in L.A. a double homicide happened in after he sold it?
|
Not exactly true... Edge didn't OWN the house... What happened was that he'd rented a house in 1988 when U2 were mixing Rattle And Hum album and film.
That house was later bought by Jose and Kitty Menendez. Thier sons, Eric and Lyle killed shot them to death in 1989.
For more on the brothers and the crime:

It's also mention on page 88 of the U2 book "Into The Heart" the stories behind the songs.

That was the house were Bono wrote "Love Rescue Me". Written after a "night of debauchery" and as Bono had awoke from a dream about Bob Dylan!

Edge was there before the Menendez Bros. moved in. Edge rented it and moved out. The owners sold it when Edge moved out after they were in LA for Rattle And Hum film/album duties. The Menendez family bought and moved in after The Edge and Aislinn moved out.

Surprised they never wrote a song about it. Also, that made the list of the twenty most gruesome hollywood murders. (I think)

I went out last night and tried out the EH Big Muff. Very cool. I'm torn though. It definitely has a cool and unique sound but I already have a distortion pedal, a Boss SD-1. What I really need is a chorus pedal. I tried out the Boss Bass Chorus but I think something was wrong with it because I couldn't notice hardly any effect even with it cranked. I'm going back to try ones made for guitars rather than bass. I also want to try out the EH Clone Theory for that cool Peter Hook sound.

Cool, indeed. And ADAM is a HUGE fan of Peter Hook's bass playing in Joy Division & New Order.
|
As so am I. I was a Peter Hook fan long before I had an appreciation of Mr. Clayton. "Ceremony" is one of my all time favorites EVER.

I love his playing and tone too... not to get too far off topic but... I love that melodic 6-string bass type of tone that Hook, The Cure and Siouxsie & The Banshees use. Great stuff.
