Title: Met any famous musicians before?
Post by: Geno on November 25, 2010, 12:55:22 PM
I've met a couple.
Aaron Weiss, lead vocalist for mewithoutYou. Really cool guy he seemed really shy but at the same time was talkative.
Lights  giggle; She's the most beautiful woman ever. I talked to her about WoW for awhile. I fell in love
Andrew W.K. I talked to him at warped tour for awhile. Fun guy.
Devin fuckin Townsend. Such a hilarious guy. He was just plain awesome.
Wayne Coyne of The Flaming Lips. He was probably the most awesome person I've ever met.

Ive met alot more from bands that arent really famous such as Cloud Cult, The Birthday Massacre, Enter Shikari etc. But still awesome people.

Tight enough with Owen Pallett, and met through him Richard Reed Parry and Sarah Neufeld. Met Nick and all the folks of Islands, in particular their touring drummer who worked on Arm's Way as well. I met Jonsi briefly, he dedicated a song to my partner and I (mostly her). I see Amanda Palmer too much for my own good, but I haven't gotten to sit down with her like my partner has. The bassist for Future of the Left and I are married.

I've met a couple comedians but never any musicians. My uncle used to play with Jason Bittner though.

Not famous but I've met Rookie Sensation, singer from Riverboat Gamblers. I didn't get to meet Jason White (touring member of Green Day), but he winked at me after I pointed at him.

At the same concert my friend, who was right next to me, got to go on stage and sing Longview. Fuck you Billie Joe for not picking me.

Oh yeah I just remembered. I met Keith Murray of We Are Scientists. They man their own merch booth at their shows when they can, and he was there pretty much whenever he wasn't on stage. Wicked cool guy.

I met Stefon Alexander (P.O.S.). He was skateboarding around the grounds at Soundset '09 and rode up to the merch tent I was in, then I asked him for a photo and got one and exchanged a few words.
I said "Hey" to Micheal Larsen (Eyedea) at Soundset '09 when he was stumbling through the crowd stoned out of his mind.
I exchanged pleasantries with Brother Ali like 20 minutes before his set when I saw him in a dinky little venue in Mankato.
Met Jason Mraz somewhere that I don't really remember. He was just sitting in a booth and I walked by and he told me to buy his new CD and told me about it, and I shook his hand.

I've met quite a few local musicians, but most of no fame.

I went to Lazerbeak's house. (of Doomtree, The Plastic Constellations, ect) once.

I talked to Scott Wells, Evan Wells, and Paul Sprangers of Free Energy twice back when they were Hockey Night.

Scott Shriner (of Weezer) asked me how the show was.

And Craig Finn told me he liked my shirt.
