U2 at the Kennedy Awards, December 2022

"I was for a minute studying chemistry, and recently I was in this well-known Dublin tourist spot called the Guinness Store House. And I got a tapped on the shoulder from this guy and he was like 'Hey Edge, I was in college with you studying chemistry'. And I asked him what are you doing and he said 'I am the master brewer of Guinness'. I am not suggesting I would be the master brewer of Guinness but something scientific." - Edge on what he would have become if it weren't for U2, 2022
