Most famous person you have met?

to count, you must have spoken to em, not just seen em walk by or been in the crowd.

My list isnt amazing........ andy green and richard noble, mark blundell, alain menu, the blonde from pans people (babs lord) and judith hann from tomorrows world.

you must be able to better that!

while drunk in a newcastle nightclub I once told a fella at the bar he looked like a fatter version of Paul Gascgoigne. Then i spotted his drinking buddy 'five bellies'

He didnt seem to take it that bad, this was at the height of his depression when he was drinking for england instead of playing for england and he was pretty out of it. maybe I contributed in some small way, who knows

Most famous persons ? George Michael & Peter Gabriel

Mine has to be George Michael, & Peter Gabriel, I work for a seating company & Peter had a special unit installed in his studio in London, so met him several times but walked down the unit one day & there was George, looked unreal, not a hair out of place, made up & everything, I said oh, hello & he smiled & said Hi how are you !
Also in my younger days my wife & I got on stage with Noel Edmonds when he did road shows - shows my age - nice bloke though

Partied hard with the Vapors and the Cure when they were staying at the same hotel in Melbourne back in the early 80's.
Gate crashed a promo party held for Grace Jones and chased out by the nasty woman herself.
Spent 2 days with Eddie Jordan on a yacht in Cannes harbour.
Fred West.
Rosemary West.
But bestest of all went 10 pin bowling with madness and 3 sound checks and guest at 3 of their concerts.





7 out of 10 people suffer with hemorrhoids. Does that mean the other 3 enjoy them?

Played a gig at Gordon Ramsey's house, a surprise party for his wife. DJ Foxy was there and Al Murray and the poofy geezer from the film 'Notting Hill' who worked in the book shop with Hugh Grant. Had a few beers and a glass or two of shampoo with Gordon in his kitchen, he's a lovely guy, quite shy. Also gigged with Don Airey (keyboard player with all the big 80's 'big hair' rock bands, currently with Deep Purple). Had a nice chat with Charlie Dimmock from Groundforce at a hotel in Southampton. She was there with Bob Holness from Blockbuster ( I asked him if I could "have a 'P' please Bob.."....bet he hasn't heard that before... yawn!) Gigged with Tony Hadley at the Grand in Brighton, Joe Brown in Cambridge and Alan Price in Cambridge. Had breakfast with Roger Whittaker (when I used to service his aeroplane). Had tea and biscuits with Max Bygraves, John Pertwee and the Glitter Band all on seperate occasions on a kids radio show when I was 11. Met John Leslie before he fell from grace when he did a charity auction at a gig I was doing. I've met Frank Carson a few times on gigs and he's always pissed, I met all the members of Level 42 after a gig at Wembley. I have met so many famous people that I'm going to stop boring you all but the best one was Christopher Reeve who played Superman (of course). I serviced his private plane, I think it was around the time of the original Superman movie and I told him that I was dissappointed that he needed a plane to fly in real life. He thought it was funny and gave me a packet of biscuits! A very nice chap, very quiet and unassuming. When he turned up at the hangar we thought he was a delivery driver! The silly bints in accounts heard he was around and tried to catch him as he was about to taxi his plane to the runway! He was a nice guy.
There's more but that will do! Sorry if I bored you all.
Cheers
Jon

Went to school with Ryan Giggs, got a cheque and had a conversation with Carl Cox, talked to Kelly Lorenna and used to hang around with Corries own Tyrone's brother.
Brother-in-law is also a pro snowboarder and has been in loads of vids jumping out of helicopters on the top of mountains and stuff and once was the highest jumper at Tamworth.
Oh, and my great uncle used to be a top "artist" and was the support act for Houdini.
