Oh, he does exist. He was there when they shot the piece about Paul McGuinness getting his award at the Meteor Awards... LMAO!!!!
 
Cardboard Adam returns!

But, you know, it's not Adam's fault he's always missing these U2 appearances. It's my fault. I keep him busy!

He must be, cause I can't see any pants. Either that or he has no legs.

Yes, Cardboard Adam really does exist! When U2 announced the Elevation Tour last year on TRL, they talked to Carson via satellite with Cardboard Adam! The first time I saw it I almost died laughing.

If you want to see it, go to the u2.com exclusives area. Scroll down on the right- it's the "Watch U2 Announcing Elevation 2001 Tour" clip.

ROFLMFAO!!!!!!!!!!! I wonder where they keep Cardboard Adam when he is not needed???? Does he get put in a closet? Does he hang around with the whole band even when Real Adam is there???? Does he fold up into a compact travel sized carry on???

And No, I know he's not at any of your houses!!!

LMAO at this entire thread! Oh, that's hilarious! Cardboard Adam ... heee! I've wanted to see that video acceptance from the moment I heard about it -- now I REALLY want to see it! (But I suppose I'll settle for Cardboard TRL Adam.)

at the thought of cardboard Adam being stored away when not being used. They'd better not store him, what a waste.
*thinks I'd really like to buy a cardboard Edge*

WILLYVILLE! Hooray! On another note, I just had the top sheet of my spongebob sheets as a cape and went running through the house like a superhero, then remembered the dream and threw it acrossed my room, then thought another minute, then made it into a sarong. Oh to get back on topic CARDBOARD ADAM! I want one, that would be AWESOME to have it sit in your car or something while you are in the store, or have it in your shopping cart, or take it to Disney World, oh the fun I would have with a Cardboard Adam, but I think I would have to put it in another room at night cause that would be a lil creepy to have it in my room in the dim light from my nightlight, I would get scared or something...I want a cardboard Adam for my birthday next month

I'm gonna go ask mommy right now...

I was just going to say that when I saw this post. I have that on tape, it was on MTV. Carson Daly said, "I'd like to ask this question to Adam" and the other guys started laughing, and the cameraman zoomed in on the cardboard cutout! They said Adam had gone on holiday in Jamaica and wasn't back yet.

Cardboard Adam also appeared later that day when they announced the dates on VH-1 but Rebecca Rankin never made a joke of him or even mentioned him. I was so irritated with her on that show, she kept cutting them off going 'oh wow' and 'awesome' at inappropriate times and acted bored and like she wanted to be rid of them. I was like, LET ME DO THIS!!! I CARE!!!!! Sheesh!

<------loves Carson Daly. He's a cutey, he has a great sense of humour, and he's a U2 fan. Let's get married.

), I was wondering why he misses SO many of these events. I mean, if Larry shows up, then it's gotta be semi-worthwhile. LOL! So where is Adam?

Lol, but it's a good point. Why isn't Adam showing up? I mean, I don't take up THAT much of his time. A girl only has SO much energy.

Seriously, I wonder what he's doing...
