I have a Larry connection!

[Infinity]

My dad is a dentist and today he worked on a patient who works with marble. The patient said that a few years ago he did marble work in a house owned by Larry Mullen Jr.! The house, he said, is in upstate Jersey and has a great view of New York City and he said that it seemed to be worth a few million dollars.

Okay, so it's not THAT great of a connection, but I do feel special. Some of those dollar bills that the patient paid my dad with may have very well been dollar bills that Larry paid the patient for the marble work! Woooooooooooohoooooooooooooooo

Autograph NOW!

Cool, I wish I had even a miniscule connection to any of the members.

 

[LJT]

Does being Irish count as a connection?

Cool but, I think that part of that money actually comes from you. Being that you have paid for CD's, t-shirts, concert ticks.. etc, etc... lol lol

I have a Larry connection myself.

When I lived in Tennessee my neighbor (Jerry Douglas...world famous dobro player, some of you may have heard of him) often had jam sessions with Larry. Jerry would take me to school with his kids and even used his Grammys as doorstops

I play drums, that means I must have a connection to Larry

Damn, that's aweosme!

 

[typhoon]

You knew Jerry Douglas? That's awesome. That means I have an Alison Krauss connection. Me, you, Jerry, Alison. We're practically married.

Screw Larry.

 

[yertle-the-turtle]

Alison Krauss is cool

 

[Ellay]

My wife's uncle named his son Adam, after Adam.

(the bass player, not the apple grabbing bible character)

 

[U2Man]

Screw Larry.

typhoon is a PLEBAn?

 

[lauramullen]

That is cool. Larry stays in Jersey sometimes. Now I have to get him to South Jersey.

 

[MrBrau1]

I've listened to Larry play the drums!

 

[Numb1075]

I believe Larry actually has a house in Rockland County New York. It is just north of North New Jersey (just a couple of minutes north). It is on the other side of the Tapanzee Bridge. I happen to live 2 minutes from the other side of that bridge. Me and Larry are neighbors.


PS, on a side note, I named my cat "Clayton" after a certain bass player.

 

[The OOTS]

I've seen Larry smile...once.

 

[VicksSs]

^ Now THAT'S special Well, as a matter of fact, I saw him smile too, from the balcony...!! i've never actually thought of it in that way before...

Hey Infinitum98, that's so cool!!! A friend told me once that, if connections were measured by degrees, all of the persons in the world are connected by around 10 degrees!! (Degrees meaning my sister has a friend who has an uncle who goes to a doctor who knows Paul Mc Guiness who knows Larry Mullen )
