I have met quite a few famous people so here is a list of highlights:

I had a friend, Rex, who used to work for a record label. We got backstage passes because of this, so from that I met:
Todd Rungren
Peter Gabriel
Phil Collins

Heather McAllister- I met her through a girl we both dated and we hit it off and became friends. Heather later because a famous fat activist and burlesque performer and was photographed by Leonard Nimoy.

Laurie Anderson, Performance artist- My friend Heather was very active in the queer community in Ann Arbor she came to a party I was at after her show.

Karen Finley, Performance artist- through my friend Heather in Ann Arbor

Leontyne Price - I was in a youth symphony and we rehearsed and played with her.

Itzhak Perlman- I was in a youth symphony and we rehearsed and played with him

Trent Rezner of 9 Inch Nails- My friend Tony opened for him before "Pretty Hate Machine" took off. He came to my house and threw up on my white floor pillow, ew.

Al Jourgenson of Ministry, Revolting Cocks etc. - we were at a party together and did tequila body shots off the same girl. heh that was a fun night

Dennis White of Charm Farm and now is DJ Static Revenger but he was just Dennis White when I knew him. He was close friends with my brother and so I saw him hanging about before and after they went carousing.

The ever popular stalking around backstage has yielded some interesting famous people meeting. . .
Nina Simone
Etta James
Ray Charles

Anise Parker, mayor of Houston- I met her for a moment at a political function

The Indigo Girls- , got thrown off their tour bus because my ex (the crazy Russian) offended one or the other of them.

I insulted Andy Bell of Erasure because he was a dick at a party I went to and I didn't know, or care, who he was. I do like their music though.

Buck Angel- had dinner with he and his wife Elayne. They were friends of a guy I used to date and were in town. I hadn't seen or even heard of any of his porn before we had dinner so I had no idea he was famous.

Oh, that reminds me, I had met Etta James as well. She was performing at a military something or other and I was helping doing a set-up for the dining hall at the NCO club at Mildenhall RAF in England. I was stacking champagne glasses when her entourage came in and started to take seats. I went to take up coats and she had a fur thing and took my hand and told me how it was to be stored, not hung. I noticed her eyes were yellowish like many older women and men of colour. When I hung them all up and put her fur away I went back to move the champagne glasses and she called me over and said she would dedicate a song to me (as a tip I think). I stayed for a few songs and ended up buying one of her bawdier albums later that year.

This was in the days when the Dodge poetry festival was still held in Waterloo, I was sitting in the tent and Mark Doty snuck up to me and quietly asked if he could sit with me and then asked if I would also save a seat for Stanley Kunitz......sometimes life is just extraordinarily grand!

I met Kunitz in the late seventies. He came to a writer's workshop my father helped organize.

The most recent celeb we have met was NY Yankee Mariano Rivera. We were at Bath & Body at the mall , he was in the back of the store checking out the scents when we spotted him. When we were finished checking out turned around and there he was right in front of my face. He noticed my chain and Yankee pendant and said it was really nice and thanked us for being fans. Caught me off guard. lol

Since we live near Clearwater we always see Hulk Hogan around town. He is always great.

Met Eddie Money after a show, he wasn't very nice, actually a complete ass

I went to high school with Ray Liotta. Popular guy and excelled in sports and drama. Who would have known?
