I have - people from music related lists, mostly. Met up with a gang of them at a concert (Doc Watson), and after a few minutes of awkwardness we were chattering away like we'd known each other for a long time. Dad and my brother were kinda shocked, I think!

Also met with some internet friends at a guitar camp I went to a few years back. Aside from a few surprises in the way people looked vs. the way I'd imagined them, it went very smoothly. For example, one guy came across as this rather wise and witty older gent...wrote a lot of interesting stories about experiences and family...turned out to be a young dad with a bunch of little kids!

I belong to another bulletin board and about 10 of us or so met at the Galleria in St.Louis back in September.

It was ackward at first,but soon were chatting like we do on the board..Pretty neat

Do make sure you meet in public place, though..You don't know...
