    I would just say thank you.

    JK. Would proably be too intimidated to speak but would at the very least like to shake his hand.

    When I met Ed, I freaked. I never even imagined having the chance. I met him at the VOte for Change show in Toledo. He was talking to about 5 people in back of the arena about politics. After he went on a rant about Seattle's mayor and relating it to the presidential election that was going on, I told him to never stop creating and I had non-gay man luv for him. I bummed a smoke off of him (American Spirit) and his security guard (big samoan looking dude, Jesse maybe?) pushed me away.
    Good times.
    90 shows and counting...some of my favs: Randall's Island night 2, Milwaukee '95 night 2, Hawaii '06, St Johns '05, PJ20!

  • I don't really want to meet to him, just for this reason. I'd have to say something. really, all I could say is thanks, but I'm sure he doesn't need to hear that from me.
  • i'd tell him i'm going to name all my children after him..or try to get him to touch my pregnant girlfriends belly..

    All you've done here is prove Ed is smarter than you, because help help is a great tune. Have you heard the song?

    lol, it's probably a good thing he's not a germophobe. At least I hope he's not.

    Umm... maybe you should take a shower :)

  • Hey Ray! And to think you almost didn't wait around with me after the show :). Now you have a wonderful story to tell and a sweet signed poster! I think what you said to Ed was perfect.

    I told him that the song "Come Back" got me through my husband's deployment, so thank you for the music. He said that he hoped my husband was back home safe, and I told him that he was and back in school, away from the army. He said, "Well, good, I'm glad." What a great guy. He had to run and was on his way out but made sure to stop and sign everything and chat with us for a minute. What a great night!

    Laura, you are the coolest stranger that I have ever sat outside on a college campus at 1 am waiting for a rock star and BSing with about Pearl Jam and life... I am so glad that you looked so inviting to come talk to sitting on the floor or else I would have continued on my walk to my car to go home. I guess this was one time that I am glad I gave in to my curiosity. I must have looked like a psycho stalker fan to the others when I ran back the my car and pulled out the blankets from my Tahoe LOL!!! Glad my car was well packed from the trip from Arizona...Damn those came in handy in that cold ass weather and I was pretty comfortable too! I remember exactly what you said to Ed about "Come Back" and your husbands deployment and it was pretty cool to me that Ed was great about taking a few seconds to personally acknowledge and respond to the questions and thanks he was being given. In any case, thanks for saying whats up and posting a response. Laura I will never forget you since I kinda have you to thank for convincing me to stick around and take the chance to say thanks if it really meant something to me. Enjoy Wisconsin and I wish you and your husband a great upcoming summer!

    I did, and I said "I've just always wanted to scream HEEELLLLLLLLOOOOOO!" He said "HEEELLLLLLLLOOOOOO!" back. Then I flashed him a peace sign and split.

    that's it =)

    Id go your a prick mate, I spent $50 on a newcastle poster for Mark Richards ( after i found out he didnt get one at the show) and then you went and gave him one in hawaii. I thought of it first.

    Nah just jokes, when it happens I hope its with mark and we three will talk about waves, I want to share a secret spot up on the north coast of oz ( Eds always talking about finding a quite place on the coast)

    probably i would be too moved to say anything. How would I tell everything what is inside me and what I owe Them in one sentence? It seems so easy, but it's so difficult.
    Maybe starting -how are U? or sth stupid like that.
    After this - must be honest - i would ask Him about many things, if i could feel safe...
