Is U2 cursed?
Months after Bono suffered a bicycle accident that forced the band on the shelf for several months, guitarist The Edge experienced his own mishap last night during U2’s show in Vancouver.
It was the opening night of the rock band’s iNNOCENCE + eXPERIENCE Tour — which comes to Boston’s TD Garden July 10, 11, 14 and 15 — and during “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For,” the Edge got a little too close to the edge of the extended catwalk.
He quickly fell from the stage, in a Rogers Arena dive that would make the Sedin twins blush.
Take a peek from a fan-filmed video, posted to Instagram:
The edge fell off the stage. Poor guy. #U2 #u2ietour2015 #theedge #fall #concert

But like the true pro that he is, the Edge dusted himself off and kept on with the show.

After the show, the Edge showed off his scrapes and bruises.
