sorry anon, not trying to beat you up. i think we've all been guilty of what you did (though well-intentioned) when we've been excited about something. did you JUST receive their VMA award? maybe that's why you're so excited. that's cool tho, not many people can say they possess one of those.

just the other day as me and my grrrl were walking out of our hotel suite through the courtyard, we walked past Billie Joe Armstrong. He was with his kid, and wearing sunglasses (at 9:30 am at the beach?! hello! can you say overcast?), so i didn't immediately recognize him untill we were passing him and i looked at the tattoo's on his arm, then i thought to myself, "OMG! I KNOW THAT GUY!" and i quietly whispered to her that he was who he is, and she was all like, "oh".

i was going to talk to the deftones on the presumption that they'd have a meet and greet session at a festival concert they played at. i brought this funny '80s catholic church book called "sex & morality", i was gonna have them sign it. unfortunately they didn't have a session that day.
how was hrvatski weird? and did he know your friend or was your friend just a generous fan?

A couple of the guys that played that night, including Hrvatski, needed a place to sleep after the show and my friend, who also played the show, offered to let them stay at his house.
I went to the show and then afterwards went to go visit one of my other friends who lives there (it's a big house). We were making fun of Static X and then in comes Hrvatski with some other guys and our friend trailing right behind them.
My friend doesn't really care for a lot of his stuff, especially the drill tracks because he's not really into to that style. He was just being generous.

And now that I think about it, it wasn't Kieth that was weird, it was one of the other guys staying there. I wish I could remember his name. He and Hrvatski did a duo at the end of the set, but I had to leave because it was too fucking loud, even with earplugs in.

it was funny, me and my friend where hanging outside of berklee, and she walked by... and i was like "holy shit! thats Jannene Garofolo!" and he was like "no way!" and i was like "seriously dude, i think thats her!"
so we followed he for 2 blocks. On the way, this girl came up to us and was like "oh my god, i think thats Jannene Garofolo!" so now there were 3 people following her.
She was with a guy, and they had stopped on the side walk, so the girl went over and said something like "hi, your Jannene Garofolo! What are you doing in town?"
Then I was like "hey, i want to meet her too!" so i went over, and said, "hi, youre Jannene Garofolo! Do you have a show here?" (i didnt hear the girl ask this already) and she was like "yep, i got a show at the 'blahblah(forget the name), you should come!" and i was like "cool! alright!"
then my friend came up and said the exact same thing, cause he didnt hear either me or the girl ask, and Jannene was like "is there in echo in boston? thats 3 in a row now!"
so the point of this story... is we all ended up looking stupid
but she was nice, and funny about it
but DAMN she was short
like seriously, one of the shortest people ive ever seen

Ive hung out with Abstract Rude, he got booked in my city and my good friend who makes beats hooked up with him and he wrote some rhymes while we partyed and then they recorded a track, He an underground MC from LA. I met Kool keith, he opened for redhotchillipeppers and foo fighters, after he opened he went outside the front of the venue his crew was passing out stickers etc, i just asked him about the tour with chillipeppers, he doesnt talk much. I dont really like Korn's music but i met them and partyed with them because my cousin was a shuttle bus driver at the hotel they were staying at and he drove them to and from the venue and they were renting like four or five rooms so he invited my cousin and joe who also worked there to hang out in some of there rooms after theyre show.

i've met and had some really nice conversations with a few 'famous' peepz. sometimes backstage, sometimes in the course of my job.
i've mentioned a few before on this MB, but i've decided that name dropping can be akin to bragging and so i think i'll refrain from mentioning them again.
one thing i will say is that i found most to be nice members of the human race, and some to be real jewels! =0)
btw.....having lunch with saul williams? do share that story if you can. the Art Institute of Chicago is a GREAT place, musta been fun meeting someone there, lots to chat about! =0)

Yep. They really are small as well. This was a few years ago when I was only 5"10 and I towered over them. They're about the size of that thing from "Don't Look Now". Just need a red anorak and it's complete.
anon: I like the Prodigy. If you really do know them then I am quite jealous. Could you get them to give a shout out to Chris and Skip at the Reading festival please? I would be overly chuffed with my life if so.
