Famous people

[Luggz]

I was wondering if anybody knew or have met any famous people.

I've met David Coulthard (ex F1 driver), Petter Solberg and a few other racing drivers.
The Liverpool football team at Aberdeen airport after a pre-season friendly against Aberdeen. Probably better know in Europe.
I'm also a distant relative of the late Michael Sheard, an actor who played Hitler 5 differant times, including in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.

I was once in a car...
And right next to our car on the right hand side was a large black car...
And inside it was Harrison Ford.
No lie.
He even waved at me, since I had my Indiana Jones hat on.
My sister got a picture of it. I couldn't see him, because the windows on his car were tinted.
But he was RIGHT THERE!

In my own particular case, the list is quite extensive. Nevertheless, when I lived in London, a fair number of famous people lived in our neighbourhood from Peter Alexander (a Northern Irish folk singer) to David Haig (star of such TV shows/films/stage productions as Mary Poppins, Love on a Branch Line, and The Thin Blue Line).
I also remember, in my time, meeting Fred Dibnah and even Mickey Rooney!

Fred Dibnah is a legend. Climbing up those chimneys with no ropes wearing his boiler suit and bunnet.

I can never forget the day of his death: 6th November 2004. He died at Bolton Hospice, aged 66.

Let's see here too... Since I'm a music freak, mostly all the people I met are either bands or band members:

I met the entire group "The Agonist" , which is a band from Montreal, Quebec (kinda metalcore, Symphonic band) and I've shaked hands with David Marino, the guitarist and I also talked a bit with the singer.

I also met, talked and shook hands with ALL the members of Lamb of God... Personnaly, this was one of my most crazy metal show ever

I've met a band called "Cancer Bats", which comes from Toronto, Ontario... And Their music is quite good I have to say!

And last but not the least, I met the one and only Mike Mangini, Ex-Drummer of Anihilator, Extreme, Steve Vai, James Labrie and present drummer of Dream Theater, one my favorite band in this world . I got an autograph, I shook his hand and talked a bit with him and I then took a pic with him and I. When I got out, I was shaking so bad I was so happy to have met an excelent drummer as Mike Mangini ^-^

You met David Spade?! Lucky!
Weird coincidence I just saw an old SNL in which he hosted.
Also, my dad has met many famous people from the old days, including Englebert Humperdink.

I gave Philip Labonte a bag of cotton candy that me and my brother crushed to dust. I wonder how long he kept it before throwing it away...

[anoni]

Well........ I dunno if she's famous, but Elen Levon goes is in the same class as me

(She did naughty, look it up if you have time... not my kind of music though )

[Luggz]

^ Not my kind of music either but its pretty cool that she is in your class, think the most "famous" person from my school bowls for Scotland. Exciting stuff.

[Cifero Windtail]

I shook Jayko's hand. 


You know... KNIGHT'S KINGDOM? That Jayko?

[Alexei]

I've met Canadian comedian, Mary Walsh.
I personally find her to be hilarious and she happens to be married to someone my mom works with so I had a chance to speak with her before.
