I was at the Arcade Fire concert in Portland, on 5.27.07, and before I went into the venue I saw Colin Meloy stand not two inches in front of me. I could have touched him and my elbow would still have been bent; that’s how close he was. But I didn’t talk to him so I don’t think it counts as “meeting.” I’m still kicking myself for not saying anything. The Decemberists are my third-favorite band.
