How many here went to this PopMart concert? It's been five years. Crazy...

It seems so long ago! That was my very first U2 concert, loved every minute of it :)
I was on the center aisle and got to touch the guys as they walked up to the front - Larry has awesome arms :yes:
 
Right here, my last Popmart show of 9.
I have one of the pic's I took on my webshots webpage under my profile of Larry getting his cake from Anne. I also received my first Edge guitar pick that night!
 
I was there, we called all the hotels around just so we could see them after the concert. Was anyone else at the Ritz in Dearborn that night?

No, I didn't get to go, but did you end up seeing any of the guys? Please spill!! :hyper:
 
Yeah we met Bono and The Edge that night. They stayed down in the front of the building for a good 20 minutes talking to a small group of us. They posed for pictures and did autographs and were really down to earth. I met Bono the week before in the Skydome and he remembered because he asked which concert I liked better. It was a very cold night and I had to leave my coat off because The Edge signed my t-shirt and I didn't want to smear it. Boy, I wish I was young again.
 
I was at that show, too! :D

I wish I would've known about them filming IGWSHA here... I was so bummed when I read about it in the paper a couple days later.

Wow, really? I never heard about that, it would have been a fun party to crash :lol:

AchtungMike, I see that you are at Palmer, congrats! My friend from highschool (and now my *personal* chiropractor) graduated from there a few years ago! Be warned, this place is severely addicting and may be hazardous to your study habits - I'm a 3rd year vet student and all I can say is it's a good thing I didn't find out about Interference any sooner than I did :no:
 
Actually bonosloveslave, I've been following interference from the beginning. I'm just one of few words, for good reasons. Palmer is great but I can't wait to get back to Michigan. It'll be tough the next time the tour rolls around and I'm stuck at school.
 
I wish i saw POP MART, i was only 7 when they went to Detroit. Only if i could of convinced my parents, wait, i didnt even know of U2 then, gosh.
