Have you ever met any really famous Rock/Pop stars?

Drank in the same pub as Simon Le Bon and used to annoy him by calling him George Michael.

Ran a website for one of A-ha and used to get drunk with them when they toured here.

Knew an 80's pop star quite well...

Got drunk with Status Quo on a few occasions as a mate of mine was one of their mates.

Had a Bourbon drinking competition with Lemmy that lasted all of 10 seconds when I threw it all up. He made me drink it again. I loved the 80's.

There are others...
 
Tons. Worked in hotel management in Dublin for years and got to meet a load.

Too people: coldplays Chris Martin, muse, nichelle nichols from Star Trek.

Absolute wankers: Bono, tim wheeler from ash, bono, westlife....Bono.

Celebs I shagged on duty: sorry boys, non disclosure was signed ;-)

Only ever got star struck once when I bumped into Tom jones at a bar, literally bumped into him. Don't ask me why, maybe caught me on the hop that I'd hit into someone like that.

Had a row with one of boy zone in Belfast one night and felt up Jennifer Ellison the same night(fun times),although her boyfriend was none too happy!

I also met britney, Enrique Iglesias and a load of others in the local celeb haunt and got pissed with Puff Daddy and his whole crew one night at a music thing.

Oh and I met Garry Cook once, and he was the nicest of the bunch :-)
 
I know Mani and Browny from the Roses.
Back stage at Wembley with the Mondays.
New Order, 808 state and most of the Madchester scene...Feargal Sharkey, Hucknall, Pickering and a few more in the Hac.
Damon Gough, Rick Wakeman, Marc Riley at the match
and Mike Peters from The Alarm stayed at the same Benidorm hotel as us in the 80's!

On a flight to New York as a 7yr old kid.
Walking around on the plane, pissing around as kids do and this guy collared me over and started talking to me (can't remember what)
Anyway he gave me these guitar and blues badges.

B.B King
 
Booker T of Booker T and the MG's,he was having a scran in the Vic in Enmore.
He was at the next table to me and Mrs.WB and I think I was the only one who knew who he was;
really nice bloke.
The Gallagher brothers(all three) at Spurs away in the early nineties,the two mates I was with blagged there way onto the guest list at a gig in Paris(no mention of me though).
PJ Probey on Ashton market,my mam recognised him as he'd split his strides.
