U2’s guitar tech offers insight on how the band writes songs

Dallas Schoo has been working as U2’s guitar tech for longer than he can remember (more than 30 years!) so he’s been through virtually every stage of the group’s career. Reverb.com sat down with Schoo to pick his brain on how U2 songs come together. If you’re heading to the Songs of Experience tour sometime over the next 18 months, this may offer some new perspective on the music.
