    I faked playing tennis with Charlton Heston for an ad campaign for a health resort in Southern California.
    A long time ago.

    If you ever lived or grew up in the L.A. area it was not so unusual to meet a tv/movie/music celebrity.

    I envy you inbyathread! I absolutely adored Festus when i was little

    I sat at a table next to the one where Bill and Melinda Gates were eating at LeoMelina's in Seattle. Mmmm the food there was good

    In between sets at a small college bar, Buck Dharma gave me a little pat as he walked by and said, "I like Ren & Stimpy too." LOL I was wearing a R&S t-shirt.

    That's about it for this Idaho girl. I still hope to get tijkmo's autograph some day.

    I got my picture taken with Dani Filth (of Cradle of Filth) with his arm around my shoulder throwing the metal salute across my chest. My boyfriend and I had special VIP passes to meet the band before the show. My boyfriend has met/had his picture taken with a few other bands including Lacuna Coil and Stolen Babies but I wasn't there for that.

    My claim to fame: I played in the studio with members of collective soul for years before they hit it big...I've met and hung with several celebs...

    Andrew Jones-Braves, Bill Elliott-Nascar, on a plane with Pat Boone and Bob Barker, Artimus Pyle Drummer for Lynyrd Skynyrd and I got drunk here in Athens together. When Stevie Nicks was still fine, I was within three feet of her. John Berry-NBA, used to play pick up BB here with me and my college roomate.

    Stephen Harper - Prime Minister of Canada

    Gary Doer - Premier of Manitoba

    Various other Ministers etc for whom I've done sound or technically directed events. Do politicians count? lol

    Opened up for Nickelback (they were hammered) and Sass Jordan (still hot) in the 90s bar band days. Good times,...

    John Ritter had a beach house 2 doors down from me. He had a very happy golden retriever to keep him company on the beach while the sun set.
