Ok, seriously.. free Belly Rubs to anyone looking for good Bono Luck
Don;t have a lot of time since I am presently drying all my camping crap and need to head to the Palace later tonight, but here's the lowdown. April, Lies and I ended up being numbers 2, 3 and 4 in line. We annoyingly sang the Gloria 2, 3, 4 all night and all day and swore that if Gloria got played, we'd take it as a shout out to us
We did steal the Electric Co. 2, 3, 4 and pretended it was for us though
Line sucked in the rain, but such is the life. I did help Super_Fan with the line numbering, and for anyone complaining about it. I know that I personally explained the system to tons of people and those in line have to remember that the number is a tool to help YOURSELF keep your place in line, it is not a guarantee. Those in line have to put forth some effort from their end. I know I do when I am further back in line...
*steps off soapbox*
So my ticket beeps in. Much freaking out ensues. I tell security April and Lies are with me and head toward the ellipse to claim the sweet spot... just off to the right of Bono's mic. Girls arrive, much more freaking out ensues. For whomever asked if I was the one in green, yup I was.
Show starts, I whipped out a PLEBA-ish sign that I had made for Adam. He laughs, we have him locked in for the rest of the night... Much love from Mr. Clayton for April and I
Let's see... I also had my regular "Free Spanish Lessons & Mysterious Dances (with the modification to Flamenco-ish Dances) sign hanging off of the barrier. Bono came over during Beautiful Day and while he was singing to me he said "Teach me, teach me, teach me" At some point he also reached for my hand and I for his, but then he started to do the ET phone home routine, so I switched to one finger too...
During the intro to Miss Sarajevo he said something to the effect of "Well, I have been taking spanish lessons, but also Italian lessons... " I'm claiming it as a shout out
And then finally, half way through One, I whipped out this sign (just on a regular piece of 8 1-5 by 11 paper)

I seemed to recall that he had tacked on a bit of that song to One before, so I figured that if I had a shot, that'd be it... He noticed it right away and read it while he was strumming his guitar. He smiled after he was done reading it and I put it away. As One was ending (this is all fuzzy, so might not be 100% accurate) he pointed at me and off mic said something like "this is for you" or something similar... I was trying to look cool and not
It looked like he was trying to get himself together to play it, so I nervously tried to switch to my other sign

My hands were shaking, so April helped me out
He then looked at it, smiled and then said my name along with whatever else he said "This is for you Miroslava" or something else....
So yeah, who knows what the hell I did earn such good U2 karma, but I swear to god, this really must have just put me on the red...
Ok, off to prepare for the Detroit shows
I'll try again just in case it was a fluke, but just to make sure... Beehappy2day2@aol.com
) anyway. Night Y'all.
