The Best U2 contest you could win

[youtwohearts]

Okay if they held a contest that a fan can win something from U2 what would be your ultimate prize? Try to be slightly realistic in answering lik,e as much as I dream about it, a private concert by U2 would not be something they'd be willing to do.

Mine would be a trip to Ireland to hang out with the band in their recording studio while they worked on a new album for a week or two.

Caller number "40" wins...

Yeah, I like the sound of yours!

Or to go backstage at one of their gigs maybe, or be on the road with them for a day or two. That'd be fun

My ultimate would prolly be along the lines of: A week's vacation (maybe 2?) in/around Dublin, photographing the guys as they give me guided tours of their favorite places. I'd spend about 2 days with each one individually & the remaining time would be spent with the group. The best of my photos would then be featured along with a short diary of the vacation in a magazine - something like Ireland of the 1000 Welcomes. (It's a travel/tourist mag.)

What about general admission tickets to their next show and a backstage pass?

 

[gareth brown]

signed copy of Three and a backstage pass, I guess...bitt of an odd question really...

 

[youtwohearts]

Well everyone wants different things from the group. Some would want signed autographs or pictures or just to meet the group. I was just wondering what stuff other people would want. Not really that strange.

I just don't come across many forums that go on about fantasty contest prizes, that's all...

And that's what makes us unique!

In my real U2 fantasy, I win a private concert by U2 where I can request all the songs I want to hear played live. Now even though I have even gone so far in this thought as to come up with a partial set list I know it isn't realistic.

 

[Moonlit_Angel]

Tickets to a show (like others have said, preferably backstage), and a chance to meet the guys, maybe get to hang out with them for the evening or something.

That would rule .

Lifetime backstage passes sound good, too, though...

Well my fantasy did come true!
I won a trip over the radio station back in December for a trip for 2 to Dublin to see them live at Croke Park!

After winning the trip in December and not hearing from the radio station with whom I won the trip with I was getting nervous that it was a scam and they were going to tell me something fell through, but it didn't!

Needless to say, my fiancee and I had a trip of a lifetime. We got to stay in Dublin for 6 days, stayed at the Morrison Hotel which is right across the river from the Clarence and 2 tickets to see U2 on the June 25th show. Great tickets too! Lower level, close to the stage! It was so awesome as I am sure I don't have to tell anyone here about it.

Anyways to see U2 in Dublin was my number 1 thing to do in life before my death so dreams do come true!!

Now off to Toronto in Sept to see them, first time with GA,s!!

oh yeah, here is a link to my pictures if you wanna see:

Dream package would be front row spot at an Ireland concert, guaranteed dance on stage, backstage passes, dinner afterwards with the boys, a week's stay at the Clarence with room service included. Too much to ask for a tour of B's house too?

 

[U2phan]

ahh backstage passes at a concert, Edge would teach me how to play WTSHNN, and would give me a copy of his entire live rig! I want that Edge sound lol

and I'd also get to play the acoustic guitar for Bono during "One" and "All I Want Is You"

 

[discothequeLP]

damn. . . every Edge fan's dream. that's the best prize yet!

 

[RavenBlue]

It would be interesting to spend a day with the boys, or get in on a jam session or something.

 

[youtwohearts]

Mitcher 16 that's a really cool story and a good contest win. I really wouldn't be complaining over that one. I loved the pictures too.

One other thing I'd like to add is to get a tour of Larry's U2 collection. I would guess that it would be far better than any one of us here.

Maybe a stay at the guest house on the premises might work???

 

[AtomicBono]

GA tix and backstage passes for multiple shows in one city (like New York or Boston or something), a day out with U2, a day in the studio with U2.

I'd take just about everything anyone has mentioned so far too
