I was at a gig in London and met a bloke at a bar who looked just like Lemmy and proceded to buy him a drink saying "Ya know, I fuckin love Motorhead" - to which he replied, "Yeah, me too mate - you do know i'm not Lemmy right?"

I once slept with a chick that could have been Brittany Snow's twin. That sort of counts.

I met michael schumacher at the Venetian casino in Las Vegas a few years ago (a week or so before the US grand prix). Since F1 is nowhere as popular as it is in europe nobody knew who he was, so I was the only one bugging him.

It would have been pretty awesome if you worked at a Drive-Thru restaurant and you served him in his car, eh?

Sorry for that one, I've been saddled with substandard material today.

When I was in High School, the dudes from Bile came off the interstate and came to the McDonald's in the town I was working at to get some food. They gave us all Bile demo cassettes which had "I Reject" and "Technowhore" (which later became "Teknowhore"). I listened to it a handful of times over the years, and eventually traded it earlier this year (since it was highly collectible) for another rare musical item I was after. They were pretty nice guys - I remember being intimidated by one of the members because he had long, scraggly-looking dreadlocks & Slayer sweatpants, but he was a pretty nice guy. They were all pretty nice guys, really.

You just trolled celebrities in real life. I'm surprised you didn't follow it up with a "worst movie evar" quote.

UnscathedFlyingObject · Mon Jan 05, 2009 2:48 am

What do you do when you meet a celebrity?

I don't give a crap about 99.9% of them. If it was someone I liked like Arnold, it'd be like "OMFG they sent a Terminator for me

!" or something like "are you here to kill me?" or "WHAT IS YUR MISSION!!!!!??"

Working on the radio, I crossed paths with a member of Meat Puppets. He was going to an interview, and I was on my way out, so I couldn't stop and talk to him.

I once met the drummer of punk rock band Raimundos.

Also, I exchanged a few emails with Paul Robb of Information Society, and game producer Randel Reiss. Do these count?

We once rode the rollercoaster at Heidepark, and before us sat Scooter. Man, of all the shitty german 90s trash-dance bands, couldn´t it at least have been Sqeezer?

I gave Helena Bonham Carter a frisky look on Oxford Strasse a few years ago. She gave me some kinda disdainful petulant look back

.

I've seen too many celebs Central London over the years. The only rock n'roll one was Rod Stewart.
Didn't care to meet any one them though, 'cept maybe Josie Lawrence from the UK Whose Line is it Anyway, who walked past looking tall and tick.
