  • Holy fuck!!! Standing next to the EDGE!!! Ahhh!!' your so lucky!!!

  • Oh dude. You guy are SO lucky. :-)

  • You did really well .. very nice!

  • Remarkable story and video. Loved how you jumped up and down when leaving the stage with the crowd cheering. Peace.

  • you lucky men!

  • looks like the guy who got up with them in Dublin ...

  • Now i know what my dream is haha man your lucky

  • Very cool, bro. Congratulations! I play guitar and my greatest dream is playing New Year's Day on stage with U2. I'm very happy for you. Miracle red zone!!!

  • dude i'm happy for ya. i can play a handful of U2 tunes and would love to get called up. cheers.

  • Awesome! I love U2 and have since before they were cool. How lucky are you? Great job on piano!!

  • good for you dude !!!!!! Even if you get Alzheimers, this will be a memory that you will never forget, for a life time.

  • Wow, great clip. That was awesome. I can tell you were enjoying every minute of it and aiming to do U2 proud on stage - you played well; the piano was a cool accompaniment to the song. I couldn't help but think while, at the end, when you sprinted back to your section, with fists pumping, that perhaps Bono thought, 'wow, he reminds me of myself when I was a young fellow in the early 80s". Check out his concert clips on Youtube.. you'll see. Congrats Mike.

  • lucky boy :-)

  • I was at both shows--U2 truely do rock!!

  • He pointed at you: YOU CAN COME UP TWICE!

  • What an opportunity. I see you're from Nashville - so is it safe to assume you were there July 2? We were - awesome show.

    Above all, thank you for acknowledging that Christ is Lord!

  • If it were me, I would have titled the video, "Me Jamming with U2." Great work!

  • title ?

  • Mike I think that many fans have already asked you but here is my question:

    How does it feel being on the stage with U2?

    Kisses

    Verónica from Argentina

  • OMG you lucky bastard!!!!! that is my dream.. and you realized it 2x

  • Dude I'm from St.Louis too and I got tickets to the 360 concert about what time did you get in line to be that far up man?

  • @dillpickle5390218 At this particular show, I got in line around 6:30 pm the NIGHT BEFORE. At the other shows I usually got in line around 4 am. On the 360 tour you should be fine at getting a spot at the rail if your in line around then.

  • I was there this night and what an incredible moment! I don't know if anything will ever top that show!

    Michael, I don't know if this has been asked yet, but what did you say to Edge after the song ended?

  • @bestofalltimeU2 I agree, I still think about that show to this day. I was asking edge if he remembered me from st Louis, and was thanking him and I told him I had his daughter in my prayers who had been sick. Peace!

  • @mikeisi Cool, thanks for the reply...and did Edge remember you?

  • @bestofalltimeU2  I think so... :)

  • I was there this night and what an incredible moment!  I don't know if anything will ever top that show!

  • Wow, must be an amazing experience to be up talking and playing with them =) I wish you luck my friend ;)

  • i thought its castor troy!!! very lucky!!!

  • I would say it must suck knowing your life will never be as good as this again.. but the way you're running I'm surprised you're not a band member yet, haha. So sick.

  • TEARS IN MY EYES!!!!

  • Does someone know chords to this version?

  • Wow, what you did is the stuff that dreams are made of.

    Not many people on this earth can say that they went to a concert for one of their favorite bands and actually got to get up on stage and play with them.

    I am sure that your experiences playing with U2 has blessed you in all the days since.

    Cheers

I saw them in Brussels couple of weeks ago, best night of my life, but no Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses.. :'(, but still, amazing, you have to see the difference, the crowd in 360 tour is amazing, they were amazing during vertigo too, but now, amazing, good job fans!!

  • Mike how did u manage to play?Many people would have paralyzed by being chosen to play by your favourite band on stage and in front of their audience.Are U a professional piano player?How did u do it?Weren't u shaking or stuff like that?I wouldn't even believe it!!Mi

  • FODA. You rock very hard +1

  • who is this boy?

  • cool story, you re lucky dude!

  • the arrangement is pretty gud for doing it on the spot.... they probably havent done this song in years... it just shows u how great of a band they actually are =]

  • I'm going to see U2 360 and hopefully I can play guitar with them.

  • Man, you are blessed.

  • Tu o hai gran culo oppure sei raccomandato....non e'possibile che sia venuto a cercare la'in mezzo proprio te.

  • Quelle chance c'est merveilleux ! bravo U2 FOREVER ♥

  • You lucky bastard!

  • Man Im so jealous!!! Im going to see them next week in Frankfurt. I play guitar a lot but I dont think Edge will let me play his though haha! But well done! Great stuff!

  • coolest thing ever!

  • baddassss man totally effing sweet!!

  • Awesome. He'll remember that for the rest of his life, and it's a such good memory and highlight.

  • @grayson123100 oh...no i was talking about the guy at the end of the video who's videotaping me. He comes up to me and tries to give me a high five and I didn't realize it so it looks like i'm just ignoring him. But then he emailed me with the video he took and thats what i probably was meaning in what you saw...

  • Comment removed

  • hi michael.. i envy you so much. i wish i had that opportunity to go up on stage and play a few songs with my idol, the edge. i've been playing his guitar work for five years now. since i was 12 years old

  • @grayson123100 ..."how did you get his e-mail" ? i got confused by your comment. did you mean to ask me "did i get his email?"...to which..no i didnt. :)

  • Amazing, though you were very specific (in bonos words) you need to learn the rest of the set, make it a 3rd time!

  • hahaha whoaa fucking lucky :O

  • hay que envidia te tengo solo que yo no subiria a tocar el piano sino a cantar con Bono pero mejor aun tocar un rato la bateria con larry.

    como sea felicidades y sigue asi no te des por vencido porque eres bueno

    yo te doy un 10

  • ha ha, did you tell them that you had played with them before?

  • @youngbono18 Yea, thats what I'm telling Bono at the end before he asks me his name. thanks! -michael

  • @mikeisi

    I wish I was you!

    lol, I LOOOOOVVVVEEEEE U2.

  • Reckon you'll try for a third time? Maybe? =P

  • That is co cool! Man, that's what makes U2 an awesome band, they're extremely talented, and they're just chill with people.

  • man dude! thats awsome!!! and yes Christ Jesus is Lord!!

  • @mikeisi You were lucky that you wanted to play with these guys rather than someone like Van Morrison... I hear that he does not really like his audience.

    Did you get a chance to play a barmitzvah with them? Too funny, I hope you continue to attemp more of these cameos with u2

  • What line did he skip, I wasn' paying attention during that part still amazed that any band would let someone on the stage, even U2. I think that something about who U2 are 'cause they have a lot of trust in their fans and audience. This would be a dream for any rock fan.

  • WOW dude, can you say LUCKY?!

  • what happened to ur neck? it looks like bleeding

  • @lvzhendong Its the red 'stamp' they put on everyone's neck for people who were on the floor. That way they could leave and get back in without showing a ticket. It does look weird.

  • Awesome bro :)

  • Its amazing when he runs and jump in the end of the video, you can feel his hapiness...

  • Its amazing when he runs and jump in the end of the video, you can feel his hapiness...

  • Lucky guy!;)

  • LOL denied that guy a high five twice

  • @d3athbRinger haha i know. i felt like an idiot when i watched it. I never even realized he was trying to give me a high five. I emailed him after i saw this and was like "dude sorry"

  • 5:32 stay video

  • So great, man! I got chills FOR you! You actually look like a young Edge, maybe that's what brought Bono to you...very fucking cool ;)

  • So great, man! I got chills FOR you! You actually look like a young Edge, maybe that's what brought Bono to you...very fucking cool ;)

  • Dude congratulations that must feel amazing! Hahah I've been wanting to play Vertigo with them but I knew the chances were incredibly slim. And to be picked TWICE...wow haha at the beginning when u were called up were u explaining to Bono that it's your second time?

  • @Nivek150 thanks! No, at the beginning i was frantically telling him that I did NOT know how to play Angel of Harlem, because at first,,,that was what he was wanting me to play.

  • for some reason i always thought U2 was like mean and rude but now i i respect them now lol UR ONE LUCKY MAN!!!!

  • Fair play to you Mike! You did a great job.

  • Lucky lad, my friend.

  • Cool dude ! XD

  • Awesome man!!!!!! You did a great job... haha

    That's cool.

  • your luckey

  • Where was this show?

  • @crowbar086 Honolulu. dec 9, 2006

  • Very good! Have seen them 5 times since 1993 and have seen people on stage with them, a fella played guitar with them in Croke Park Dublin 2005 when i was there, but you played for a lot longer! Well done!

  • awesome - congrats!

  • That's so awesome!!! I wanted to go to their "U2 360 Tour" but they the closest location they were to me was Pennsylvania D: I'd bring a sign and and play "October" :D

  • you lucky guy

  • what does the edge keep looking at on the floor? lol

  • @ianbright851 Its the notes. During the beginning of the song, you can see Dalls run up and lay the notes there, then go back down. He's actually looking at them on the edge of the piano, which is funny because one moment they blow off and he sets them back up there.

  • wow.. i'm so jealous, lucky you! ;)

  • Le tengo envidia a ese cuate jeje

  • Whooow...lucky bastaard ;-) i hope to play bass whit them somethimes.

    i suspect this was a setup..

  • wasnt a setup. Just brought a sign asking to play....he saw it and let me have it at.

    -michael

  • @mikeisi

    wow.. how lucky you are bro :) honestly im jealous :(

  • If I had been the one up there, I would have had to leave the show right after this to change my pants.

  • You LUCKY CU ...

  • What other band does this stuff? Amazing! Jewels of Ireland, indeed!

  • I love u2!

  • Wow, that's great! One of the best versions Ive heard. You've got talent dude.

  • And I thought the dude who got a five from Bono at my 360 show was preposterously lucky... lordy.

  • You've got guts....playing in front of thousands of people like that...with U2...wow

  • MAGICAL MOMENT TO NEVER SURRENDER!!

  • that is just plain fantastic!! Great job, Dude, fucking great job!

  • you lucky bastard :D

  • The crazy thing is I was in St Louis the first time you got on stage. I live in Australia and travelled there to see U2! I can remember seeing you up there with the boys and wishing it was me!

  • very nice man...You got the feel for the part. definitely something to brag about..good on ya:)))))

  • OMG! :D

  • Your fucking awesome dude. You rock. Very well talented. Lucky you!!!!

  • You lucky basterd.

  • pero que suerte,mi amigo!!! el sueño de todo u2fan hecho realidad!! debio ser demasiado emocionante!!!

    FELICIDADES!

  • if you get on stage with them again you should consider yourself the 5th member of u2!!!! hahaha thats awesome dude good for you!!!!

  • Hahaha! Adam wasn't playing! Good job, you got them to play a song they didn't know how to play. You can even tell that Bono couldn't remember the lyrics. Still, very good job with all things considered.

  • very good version of the song good job

  • Thats just like a dream or not???

  • so cool man, congrats!

  • WOW, I'm sure this the dream of every U2 fan.... like me!!, this is really awesome!!, hope one day I can have the chance to play with them too (if I could choose I would like to take Edge's guitar and play "The Fly" :P).... had the chance to play with them ....TWO TIMES!!.. you are my idol brother!!

  • I'd love this too, it would be awsome!!!

  • AWESOME !!!

  • You are my hero... ....

    Speechless...

  • wow, spectacular, I can't imagine how that must have felt... you're so fortunate!

  • I was at that St Louis show in 2005, one of 11 on that tour. I can't believe this happened twice! My son did Sometimes with Bono ontstge in Seattle, but sadly NO ONE has any video. :( in the 360 tour you can find 100 shots of every song from every night on you tube.

  • awesome :D lucky you ^^

  • dude that's crazy. you're so lucky!!!! I can't believe that happened to you twice!!! WHOA! :D :D
