I'm such a loser! I read the posts and I thought everybody was talking about that guy in the background not being there when the picture was taken! I was getting all creeped out for nothing....I'm really glad you got to meet Robert! He's a really cool guy. J/K! Sadly I've never even met the man!

Wow... that scary-loooking guy in the middle is *so* lucky to have met Eric. I mean *the* Eric! He's just a legend!

Tx, Eric, for your report. I still thought you would look more like Bart Simpson, though.
:-)

What was Robert like?

Honestly I met him for maybe 20 seconds, tops. I said hello, told him I was a fan for 20 years and thanked him for his music. I asked him about the setlist as I heard it would be quite different. (It was.) I'm sure Robert can now pick me out of a crowd. ;) He seemed very humble and very nice. He had that way about him that even though there was a soft murmur in the room he would talk quietly and you would hang on his every word. He went out of the way to thoroughly answer someone else's questions even though I have heard him answer similar questions dozens of times in interviews. So to answer your question, I really dont know what he is like but I am extremely grateful (and lucky!) to have met him and the band (who also happen to be just as nice and very down to earth).

And is it me, or does Eric's physique scream bouncer/bodyguard? You go, Eric!

Robert's a a bit like Alex Trebek from Jeopardy. Calm, cool, collected; suave, smooth, sleek; composed, congenial, content; worldly, witty, and wise.

Actually, I would have no clue. Never met 'im. But Eric has. Do tell, Eric!

You are so lucky to have met Robert Smith, what was he like?

who's that zombie looking guy in the middle?

The guy in the middle is a well known gatecrasher, I always see him on pics with people.
Glad to see the famous Eric!

how is it that these people (whomever they are) get the opportunity to freaking meet any member of the group???? HOW????!!!!
Fleurdumal 11-Aug-2004 20:25
I'm sorry, who's this ROBERT?
Tallis 11-Aug-2004 20:02
OMG that is SOOOO funny! Sorry for being a total dork, but I read the posts and then looked back up at the pic, and look on Robert's face just made me roll for 5 minutes! Like he just popped up there to ham it up in front of the camera! Heh! Once again, sorry for being a dork, I have a very skewed sense of humor....

*looks at it again and rolls*

:D

i'm telling you eric, daryl is back there putting the whammy on you... ;o)
Fleurdumal 11-Aug-2004 18:10
He looks kinda spooky. I think I saw him in something recently...
Eric 11-Aug-2004 17:44
Dunno. Weird thing is, it was just my wife and I in the pic until we got the photo back. Spooky.
Fleurdumal 11-Aug-2004 17:37
Hey Eric! *waves* Who's the guy in the middle?
