Re: Anybody had a run-in with a celebrity? [Re: Learyfan]
    #3960043 -


A few months ago I was standing in line at the LAX airport and who do I see walking towards me but Stephen Carpenter (guitarist of the Deftones - which happens to be like my favorite band... i had a deftones cd in my discman at the time even) He was wearing big sunglasses but it was so obvious it was him. Also he was carrying a keyboard. When he walked by me I called out "Hey Stephen," like I was a friend of his or something. He looked over when I said his name and I nodded and he smiled and nodded back. It was crazy. What are the chances...

I think I got high with Edward Norton once. Im not sure. It was at a hotel party that a friend invited me to. We got high in one room... I looked at him and said, "Man I've gotta say you look dead exact like Edward Norton." He looked at 2 of his friends they laughed... and he said "I get that alot." and chuckled again.

I didn't push a question. Decided I'd rather wonder.

I get to play lots with Semi-famous people like Death From Above 1979, Wax Mannequin, Buck 65, De La Soul... I've gotten threatening letters from Management of certain artists for my musical works(see below and youll know why.)

Ive met the band members of Fugazi on Numerous occasions and had a nice long chat with Ian M on the phone once... Which was fucking awsome, that guy is top shelf... Very down to earth.

Ive sent out 'fan' letters and most of the artists do write back... Especially today with email you'd be surprised who will actually write back if you have something nice and smart to say.


YES! I LOVE WAX MANNEQUIN! I've met him before a few of his shows, real nice guy, even on stage, he's crazy, but good! Met him in hamilton a year or two ago, back when And Gun came out.

Oh yeah, nearly forgot.

I once carried Shirley Basseys luggage to her room when I was working in a hotel and she gave me a ?50 tip and I've also shared a joint with Sasha and Carl Cox.

I live in nashville, used to live in New Orleans, worked at recording studios in both cities as well as working restaraunt type jobs there, so i have seen/met/hung out with way too many people to name that are famous. Pretty much there are two types of famous people: those that are humble/dont care about their fame, and those who use it to no end and are self-important assholes. Seems to be extremes in both sides and very little middle ground.

Galactic are cool guys. I installed some Iso booth I/O panels for them at their studio near Twiropa in N.O. and smoked with them, and got to play the drummers drum set for a soundcheck. Hung with CJ from Drowning Pool a few times, I am friends with his little brother. One night I chilled with the sax player from Bela Fleck and the Flecktones at a bar, also talked to Robert Randolph a while at the same bar I run sound at- funny thing was, he was pimpin two big fat white chicks.... guess with all that fame he still wants that big ol booty.

I forgot about David Allen Coe. I met him in a gas station here in Indiana. Not a fan of his or anything, but I knew who he was.

Well, if you count that, Jeffery Dahmer went to my high school for a few months several years before I went there. A friend oif mine stole a book from the library that he had checked out. It has his signature on the little card in the back of the book.

Also, another serial killer went to my school in the 60's. His name was Larry Eiler (I know I spelled that wrong). He's not near as popular as Dahmer, but maybe some of you have heard of him.

i guess its not considered a run in but i met the entire cast of Pete and Pete. they were filming in my town and i got to be an extra on the show. i also saw adam west(batman) because he was the principle on the show at the time. fun times fun times.

the best part was when i got autographs by the cast, one of them wrote " live long, drink hard" . then he crossed it out but i could obviously read what was written. i was 12 at the time so i probably could have gotten him in trouble but im no narc!

it was lots of fun to meet them, the young pete was cool but the older one was a prick. this isnt the reason he was a prick but he was doing a scene on a bike and as he rode by he said "dont do drugs kids" I agree with you when you say it was the best show

He's great. I met him in my home town... He ended up crashing at the house while on his first east tour, he invited me on the road to play shows with him. A pure genius!! I've got him on my website links! a few other cool unique artists on there you might like.
