Oh... *ahem* Cassandra dear - you need to update your profile. You've met THE EDGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They have breaks?lardence said:Heehee. I'm glad I was under that name and not this one...
YAY! I'd love to know which of mine was used. Aww imagine they could be reading them right now! Or, y'know. Whenever they have a break.
Lemon Grrrrrl said:Cassandra - would you be able to email me the descriptions of all the caps that made it into the book? (Basically just forward all the emails you sent out to everyone already...) Miriam, Kat, Meghan and I can easily go back and find the caps you're talking about and we can put them in one master thread here in PLEBA so we all know which ones made it. And then maybe have a special section in u2captions.com for it as well!
Joy! Joy! Joy!
I'm a big fan of your captions, but your picutures keep becoming Red X's, so I've had to pass over a lot of brilliant captions for our site.Sad_Girl said:That is too cool! Thank you so much for all the effort you had to have put into the book! I bet you even managed to get a smile from Larry
Oh - and I think my name was mentioned in the thread about this. if you did use something of mine, could you let me know what one it was?

So if you ever go to it and notice there aren't a whole heap of your captions on there, thats why.
Cassandra said:LG, sounds like a plan. Caption threads #1, #2, & #3 are in regular PLEBA while caption thread #4 is in PLEBA Archive.
Maybe we can get on of the mods to put everything in PLEBA Archive would make it easier to find the captions.

Cassandra said:To the Mods: I know this probably needs to go to the fan meeting discussion section but since this is a specific act of getting the caption book to the band oppose to a random meeting act, I thought I put it in Pleba. Also I started a new thread because I want to let the Plebans know quickly that the deed had been done.
I'll skip all the boring bits of the 2 hours of travelling, walking/waiting in the rain (it rain all day), hungry pains and the anxiety you get when you go to the bathroom and wondering if you have missed the band. About 4 pm I made my way back to MSG (Madison Square Garden) entrance to where the band would come in. I had just missed Larry by 5 mins. Since there were less than dozen fans, I was able to stand next to the railing. About 15 mins later a black town car pulled in the driveway. Its back windows were darkened, so you couldn't see who was inside. But 5 mins later, the car backs up and the bodyguard gets out with an umbrella and then...out comes Edge! He shook a few hands. Someone asked him about posing and he said that he couldn't pose, they would have to snap away. As he got closer to me, I began to slightly panic because the book, wrapped in clear plastic, wouldn't come out of the damn book bag I had it in. I thought geez, I'm this damn close and Edge is going to passed me by. Luckily, someone else next to me was having her on moment of trying to find paper for Edge to autograph. By the time he was in front of me I had the book in my hands and I said, "I don't want anything from you, I just want to give you this. It's a gift." He said, "Awww, thank you", and stuck his hand out to shake it. I shook it. I think I said you're welcome and smiled but I can't remember. He went back down the line shaking hands and signing autographs. As he made his way back to the car, a chorus of "thank you" arose and I wave my hands. Edge looked my way and raise the book in the air. He got in the car and it pulled in the underground garage. Next came Bono in a black SUV, he waved but didn't stop. Adam came last in a black town car; he rolled down his window and waved but didn't stop. No one else came outside.
And that's it.
The concert was great and I had a great time by myself (watching people getting drunk and stoned is sad but amusing). Despite cold feet, hungry pains and a lost earring, it was just like the man said, "it was a beautiful day".
