That would be like the time my buddy and I were convinced that at some point we were going to be hauled up on stage to help out with The Last of the Unplucked Gems. I've since seen them play in it in concert twice, but I wasn't with my buddy so they didn't ask me up.
I hope you get to play Membership.

Where's the pre show excitement?????

There's a girl from London, ON who went down to Vegas for a U2 concert. She made a sign that said 'This girl plays guitar'. Bono saw it and invited her up to play/sing a song with them.
It was on some Much Music special or something... but wouldn't that be cool?

i was at a green day concert a few years back and that happened to some kid, he played a song with them and then the band let him keep the guitar.

i was 3rd row at the hip concert in london (feb 5th) with a gigantic MEMBERSHIP sign
the band members acknowledged it, but no membership was played
best of luck with attempts to communicate to the band through signs
based on my experiences, chances are they will overlook it

When my friend's mom worked on YNTO video, I was convinced I would meet the band and they would ask me to go on tour with them this summer so I wouldn't have to work at Zellers anymore. Also it was how I was going to become an established music journalist.

Odd ... it works for me everytime with my "Play Either NOIS or Gift Shop or Both" sign.

Saw a sign in Boston last Friday asking for GUS. It was maybe ten feet from the stage, right in front of Gord Sinclair, and clearly visible to me on the other side of the venue (despite my lack of contacts/glasses). The fact they didn’t play a single song from IBE leads me to believe the sign might not have produced the desired results. :roll:
Holding up a sign with a song request sounds like a good idea on paper until you discover you’re not the first to think of it. If Sinclair began taking requests from the audience how long would it take before 200+ signs were hoisted in the air at the start of each show?
You might have better luck if you secure a tee time for Sinclair at the finest golf course in your town. :thumb:

I was joking. Im not doing a sign. It will be too hard to carry my beer and handle a sign at the same time. Beer wins
