I meet a couple but they were all from the 80's. I was a military b-rat in the Hamptons and had summer jobs.
Michel J Fox - nice
Brooke Shields- super sweet
Puffy- Asshole/whines a lot
Chevy Chase- super nice
Billy Joel- think of meeting a girls dad for the first time, awkward
Ughh and Cindy Crawford- what a bitch

Dude, you obviously cared enough to post about how much you don't care.

I never want to meet Hulk Hogan, because he's scary.

I've met Ben Kweller, among others.

I encountered Little Richard once, he was surrounded by a goon squad of incredibly well-dressed body guards. Motherfuckers looked like the secret service.

I met Wayne Knight, David Hasselhoff, and one of the Olsen twins at the local Target Megatropolis. Not all at the same time, that might have left me paralyzed. I see Gary Coleman around here too sometimes. i guess he moved down here a little while ago after filming some mormon comedy. and I use the word "comedy" very loosely.

Sure. Plenty. Cared, not really.

Except for...

Henry Rollins, just because he's somewhat of an icon.

And quite a few underground well-known, commonly-unknown artists/bands that have inspired my music greatly.

I met Ziggy Marley last night at the Comcast Center in Mansfield, MA. The concert was canceled before he went on stage because there was no power. Ziggy Marley and 311 never got to on stage. I thought a roit was going to break out because everyone started yelling. I was standing in a vip pit ga right in front of the stage. I headed for the exit and I was upset because this was my first concert and I was there to see Ziggy Marley. Me a this guy I just met decided to go find Ziggy's Tour bus and to my surprised he was still inside. One of his team came out and I asked if I could meet Ziggy because this was my first concert and I couldn't believe what happen tonight. She said hold on I'll try to see if he will come out of the bus. To my surprise, there he was! I wanted to scream but didn't want him to run back inside the bus. I was amazinly calm and ask if we could take a photo together and he said sure. I gave someone my new camera I just purchased that day (Olympus FE-3010) They try to take a photo and they couldn't see anything from the lcd screen. I try make it work but no luck, Ziggy was loking at me like I was kinda crazy. I should have talked about how I enjoyed his cd's and how much I admired him but I was just mad at the damn camera repeating oh no oh no oh no not now please work please work. The guy who followed me shook Ziggy's hand and said I have all your dc's and I love your work and I felt like a damn fool because Ziggy looked at me and I was like... Thank you for your time and he said, no problem. It was kinda funny because the guy I asked to take our picture... Ziggy was like, just press the button mon, lol. He was a good sport. I had my arms around him and his arms was around my waist, (smile) I know I know he's married and I respect him and his family. I just felt like a little girl again.

Well, that's my first experience.. I found out that the concert is back on for Monday June 29, 2009. yesss he's coming back and I'll have my same vip spot! I wonder if I'll get a second chance? What do you all think? I'm bringing my dependable bulky canon g6. That camera has never failed me yet, it's just to big! I'm bring back that Olympus piece of crap!

I met Barack Obama.
Ok, I didn't "meet" him, but I shook his hand at a rally last fall.

I've also met random bands and musicians I don't feel like listing.

I'm not proud of this.
My best friend wanted me to go to a concert with her, so I did. It ended up being a Simple Plan concert.
So I met Simple Plan last summer with my best friend. In the rain. Outside.

I repeat, I'm not proud of this.

I've met some, don't care.
but my mom went to high school with Steven Seagal
and apparently his name was pronounced "seagull"
she told me he was kind of on the skinny side and a tad nerdy.
