Bono claims that he may never play guitar again due to his bike accident. As you all know Bono hurt himself last Nov. in New York City in a bicycle accident. He hurt himself pretty bad. Now he is worried that he may never play guitar again.
It may not seem like that Bono is a guitar player but he is. He’s been playing guitar for U2 for many years. If you watch the live U2 video performances in youtube you can see plenty of videos of Bono playing guitar. He may not be a virtuoso but he’s just a rhythm guitarist from the looks of things. The Edge does all of the lead guitar work obviously. Bono sings most of the time on the stage.
I don’t think his guitar playing days are over as he claims. I’m sure there are ways to get his strength for his arms back and stuff. He might have to relearn guitar all over again, though.
I don’t get all the u2 hate. I’ve always liked them and still do. I’m not that crazy about their newer music… I was more into the earlier U2 like the stuff they did in the early 80’s and early 90’s. My favorite U2 albums were “October”, “The Joshua Tree”, “Unforgettable Fire”, “Zooropa”, “All That You Can’t Leave Behind” and “Achtung Baby”. Everything else they did was kind of, meh.
U2 doesn’t suck, though. They should be respected ’cause look at how many legendary bands out there that stuck together for a long time with the same members? U2 had a 30 year or more career and they’ve always been the same 4 guys: Bono, Adam, Larry and Edge. Many bands over the years have had many replacements in the lineup but not U2. If that’s not impressive, then I don’t know what else it is.

Bono should take advice from Dave Mustaine:

There was a point where Dave Mustaine of Megadeth thought he would never play guitar again ’cause of his injury but Dave did whatever he could to fix his arm so he can play guitar again. It took Dave a long time to re-learn guitar but if Dave can do it so can Bono.
