[Ronnie the Rep]

Snogged David Coverdale (white snake) no idea who he was

Went to school with jimmie Glennie (James)

Went to school with Paul Stewart (footballer)

[Tuearts right boot]

Ive beaten George Michael in a game of pool. I know some of you will find an innuendo in that somewhere

Got bollocked by howard donalds grandad for retrieving a wayward shot by droylsdenblue, (he should have stuck to being a goalie). from his front garden. Met bilbo baggins top floor lewises while wagging it from school. You can end the thread now.

Howard Donald is my missus's cousin, (the shame...) and their grandad was a miserable rag .....

Met a few over the years. Roger Taylor from Queen, Lemmy, Phil Lynott and all Thin Lizzy a lot back in the day, and Cheap Trick many times .... (always get the round in)

Am proud to say, that on saying to Lynott, that being from Dublin, he was 'bound to be a red', he called me a 'cheeky Blue c*nt' .... :-)

Jimmy the Weed was a mate of my older brother. He knew Phil Lynott through Phil's mum. He knew I was a big fan, so he took me to the Chinatown gig in 1980. He introduced me to Phil's mum,(lovely, sweet, warm lady) she was there with Darren Wharton's mum(I think it was his first gig with Lizzy). She invited me to the after show party but I didn't go because I was only fifteen and felt slightly out of my depth. Been kicking myself ever since.

Jimmy's brother, the so called Johnny The Fox, used to take me to school in his Jag. Being a massive Lizzy fan, it seems a bit surreal to me now.

Met a few stars over the years, but nobody people here would know really. Jammed with Vinni Reilly a couple of years back.

 

[Sonic Temple]

Met Ian Paice and Ian Gillan on seperate occasions
Met James Dean Bradfield at the Manics after show party
Spoke to all of the Stone Roses when they came in the shop I worked at.
Chatted to Mike Joyce .

Depends on your taste in music. I've met a few prog rock musicians who are famous in their field. It seems the musical taste of most on here began around 1988 and ended in 1993 and all came from Manchester.

 

[OB1]

Had backstage passes for Kiss' 1980 UK tour so have met Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley. Simmons had Diana Ross with him.

Met Steve Harris of Iron Maiden at the Sunset Marquis in L.A. They were supporting UFO at the Long Beach Arena , which we had passes for. Met various member of UFO on a number of occasions, including standing stage side whilst they trashed their equipment at the Day on the Green festival in Oakland.

Met Ozzy having a quiet drink with his first wife (not Sharon) at a night club in S. Manchester after seeing him in concert. We were introduced to him by Ross Halfin the rock photographer, who was also responsible for getting us into the U.S. Gigs above when he was on tour with UFO.
