i was lucky to get a kiss, and oddly enough, i didn't freak out until about 10 minutes after I left...then I looked at my friends (who als got kisses) and we were really giddy and happy! and then a big seagull pooped all over me after I got back in the GA line, just to keep my ego in check :wink: a rather poetic ending to a momentous event!

thats one jelous seagull

:laugh:
 
My hand was really trembling but stopped when he took it in both of his hands :)drool: ).....After the whole thing was over I went over to the grass, in a state of amazement, and shed a little tear or two because it was so overwhelming and exciting.

thats so beautiful-thanks for sharing :)
 
i like your polling options...thy're funny and oft true! :shifty:

I'll tell you if I actually do finally get to meet him!
Hopefully plenty of opportunties in NYC this Fall :D [yes I realize the luck in them playing here so often!!! don't have any tix yet for Oct/or Nov.]

After being a fan for 24 years I wouldn't be suprised if i do shake some!
But i hope I can say something...I have some ideas to get the quick convo going [:uhoh: if I don't freeze up]. I did see s a few guys get pretty wowed out after meeting him this past May < i was too far away as the crowd suddenly shifted. :sigh: >

I've meet The Edge, got autograph, BUT soooo cold/tired AND SHOCKED/he was the last one out and the only one to step out of his car/van that night/ I'd NEVER met ANY of them before-- the few of us left the last night of NYC fall 2001 gigs after they stayed inside alot longer after show-- that I didn't :ohmy: even say 'thank you' till I heard some one else say it! :yikes: so inconsiderate!

I meet Adam this year {after SNL} and Larry, too {after MSG gig}.
Adam was spooked during a overreactive fan last year at their HQ that I didn't do anything more than shake his hand & say thanks.
Larry, I shook his hand, took a few pics as he was signing others stuff and a pic of someone else with him.
Managed to stay mostly calm outwardly, but was anxious/happy inside. It was later I was OH WOW!!! outwardly and was like that on & off for days.
With Bono...it'll be more Intense, tho.

ANd I do want to have my pic w each of them { patience, & more Patience :laugh: } eventually! Since i've actually had a first meeting w the 3 of them already...I think i can be pretty calm next time even asking for a photo with each. :hopes so:

And Passingcat the REASON i started doing all of this...was even though I've seen them live from '03 onward I and freinds have NEVER gotten even good, let alone great seats or {for me anyway} GA Tix for U2!

I finally decided the ONLY way I was even going to be able to see them upclose WAS by standing outside the concert venue before /or after :D ANd it's been working over time :D !!

But I STILL want to see them upclose in Concert :grumpy: I've seen every other great Live R&R band I've ever wanted to see {so far} close up at some point or another....{WHo, Bruce lots of others...} except U2!

the first time i met bono on the elevation tour, i couldn't get a word out. i remember shaking his hand, and wanting to say something to him. i think i finally blurted out 'i love you' cuz that's when he kissed my hand :faint:

me and my friend (valvenus8) were shaking for several minutes after we met him. in fact we were still shaking till we went over and bought t-shirts and went inside the arena. i even hugged a complete stranger LOL!

i met him in chicago back in may on this tour, and i was remarkably calm and talked to him and gave him the birthday card. in fact i think i was more nervous talking to the guy with the camera making the dvd when they interviewed me than when i talked to bono, lol. :shrug:
 
I hung out with Bono years ago (Joshua Tree) and was nervous, but got over it, he and I and my friend hung out for about eight hours. Then I saw him a few years ago and I was nervous when I saw him, but when he hugged me that went away.
