In your lifetime, which famous individuals have you seen in person?
The first that comes to mind for me is Robert Moog. He came to my university last April to give a lecture. He also showed off his latest Minimoog model.

I think it's probably harder to avoid meeting Bob Geldof.

pierce brosnan. that's the fucker's name. i shook that bastard's hand and exchanged smalltalk at the theatre once, this australian play that was on..
the bastard
that's the closest i've come to meeting a celebrity. the times i've seen bono he's just been on the street (once filming a bit of a video off grafton st) or driving past in his chrysler crossfire, the bastard (#2). i want that car.

uhm, simon pegg. aphex twin walked past me at a festival as i was sat down. i wish i had shouted rich and then started talking to my mate as that was also the name of my mate sat next to me. ho ho ho, i saw kris akabusi(what a loser) on a school trip and on the same day my mate got hit by a custard pie by barry chuckle. i was very jealous. oh and i saw andy crane at one of the Future publishing shows years ago. none of these people are very famous really.

Geez, nobody, just local Celtic-pop stars. Ashley MacIsaac is pretty (in)famous, Mary Jane Lamond, Natalie MacMaster, do they ring any bells?

Oh and Chris Murphy and the guys from Sloan. Not massively famous but they should be, I think they're the best rock group in the world.

I've been to the player's lounge at Wimbledon several times. Met a few there. I've met Serena and got Federer's autograph the day before he won last year.
I also saw Leslie Ash last weekend and Martin Clunes filmed a sitcom in my street.
