Hey guys! I just thought i'd let you in on something -
I MET ALL OF U2!!!!!!!
SSSHHHH i haven't told any of this yet!
I've been trying to put the story together in my head in order to put it in the Band meeting&sightings section! When i type up the whole thing, i want to get it right as you can imagine, even though it was - get this (i'm giving away my age here!
)
almost 13 years ago. Yep, i know you would think that i would have it all well rehearsed in my mind now. It really was so AMAZING that it goes round in your head SOOO many times, and there seems to be no words&it's still so fresh in my mind 'cos i still to this day go on&on about it to my friend&though they are quite a fan, i still think....i really must be getting on their nerves, like they're going
All the boasting AGAIN!!
My turn to be
!! Anyway , to put it briefly for now, let me tell you my two crazy Canadian friends, i had an absolute ball the day i met our guys, especially Bono!!! what can i say in a short sentence about the sex god, except: OH>>>MY>>>>GOD!!
Believe me, EVERYTHING you have read about him in meeting stories is 100% TRUE!!!! He is truly awesome, dreamy, gorgeous, super-friendly, super-sexy&i thought i would pass out from absolute LUST!! Just one more thing to say for now, considering what we were saying about his ass; i stood directly behind him while he signed autographs&i had my hand inches away from it&was sorely tempted to give it a feel but i bottled out of course
DAMN IT!!!
isn't that shameful?
I know I know - tell me what i missed out on!
Don't make me feel any worse than i do about that! I could so kick myself, especially after reading these on stage stories about him allowing girls to do it! mind you, they may get away with it on stage only! As Gollum would say: 'curse it'!
Anyway, to get to what your question was about meeting them, well i met them at their hotel, after hovering around for a time.
That seems to be one of the favourites for tracking them down. Sometimes, i reckon you need to play it by ear; hang around&find out if people are maybe hanging around the big hotels; be at the venue&be prepared to wait a few hours! I actually stood in front of the Holiday Inn to begin with, but no-one was around. I walked to the venue&i heard a journalist say that they apparently were at that hotel&so i had a dilemma: Do i stay here or do i beieve the word of a tabloid journalist?! Thank god - i made the right decision! I went back to the Holiday Inn&to my sheer delight, the guy was right&they appeared after 2 hours to go to the soundcheck!!!! Have i just made you mega jelous? Believe me, I feel SO SO HUGELY LUCKY INDEED. I am grateful every day for what happened to me, i really do! Sometimes, i can hardly believe i did it&what makes it even MORE satisfying is the fact that i did it FIRST time trying! I mean, i've read about some fans who have tried heaps of times to meet them&have failed.
I think wow, i am so very lucky! What a lucky bitch i am eh?
it took me quite a while to type that (not v.fast) and the whole thing would take me DAYS to get it fully written!
Do i anticipate a few questions now?!
