Ok, I tried filling it all into my original post, and it didn't work, so I have to do it the stupid way and reply... *sigh* anyway, here it is..
THE BASICS
1-When did you become a U2 fan? 1997, roughly after hearing WOWY on the radio and buying the Best of CD... The rest is history.
2-What got you into U2? With or Without You and Rattle and Hum.
3-Favorite U2 Album? It changes, but right now it's R&H.
4-Top 5 favorite songs? Heartland, Van Diemen's Land, One, Two Shots of Happy, Big Girls Are Best.
5-Favorite lyric? Again, it always changes, but right now it's "Waves of regret, waves of joy, I reached out for the one I tried to destroy. You, You said You'd wait until the end of the world."
6-Favorite quote otherwise? "From an artist's point of view, failure is where you get your best material." -Bono
7-Favorite Band member? Hmmm... aw geez I don't like picking... but I'd have to say it's Bono (after Mrs. Edge's story that's understandable!).
8-Favorite Era? Gotta be either ZooTV, Elevation or JT/R&H.
9-What is your favorite tour to date and why? Elevation, because it's the only one I've seen... and it's simple, intimate, more about music than display.
10-If you could go back in time and see any tour that you missed, which one would it be and why? ZooTV. It just seemed like such a phenominal show, I hate the fact that I was only 10 when it was going on...
THE FUN STUFF
11-If you were to ever run into Bono at the store, what do you imagine he?d have in his shopping cart? That's a tough one... Vintage wine, general stuff...

15-If Larry were a car, which one would he be? 57 Thunderbird.
16-If you could be a tree, what would you be? A Joshua Tree, of course!
17-What do you imagine Bono sleeps in? Heh.. nothing!
18-If you could clone any one of the band members, who would you clone and why? We need more people as calm and as intelligent as the Edge on this planet.

28-Would you ever call Larry ?Shirley? to his face? Heh.. only if I had my own body guard with me for protection, or a suit of armor.

33-Larry?s buzz cut now or Larry?s long hair circa 1980? The cut now.
34-So by a quirk of fate, you?re backstage at the next U2 concert and the boys walk up to you. They ask you what song you want them to resurrect and play tonight, but it has to be something they either have never played live or haven?t played in a long while. What do you tell them to play? Heartland.

, written tons of books, etc.
41-If you could meet only one member of the band, who would it be and why? Larry... I'd love to have a really deep conversation with him.
42-If you lived next door to Bono, what do you imagine overseeing/overhearing? *ahem* no comment. General daily activities?
43-If Edge were eligible to run for President of the United States of America, would you vote for him? YES.
44-If you were given 4 days to hang out with U2... One day (24 hours) with each band member and your time with band members cannot overlap, what would you do with each of them? Where would you go? What would you talk about? (Keep it to a reasonable length
)
Bono: Spend most of it about Dublin, seeing all there is to see and talking about everything from Jesus to Mick Jagger...
Edge: Talking, talking and talking... and him teaching me how to play guitar.
Larry: Lots of deep spiritual conversation... a ride on the Harley, schmoozing around Dublin.
Adam: Anywhere he wants to party.
There ya go, have at it!!
