Quoting Miguel Motta <a2j@bellsouth.net>:
has any auditeer had an autograph encounter with a
> "star" and actually been able to exchange a few words?
BRIAN WILSON - At the Three Rivers Jam in Pittsburgh. We talked about
instruments on Pet Sounds until Mike Love came and took him away...
CARL WILSON - Kinda grumpy at Three Rivers - I think he was in the middle of a
divorce at the time - much nicer a few yars later on his solo tour at the Agora
in Cleveland. We talked about...soul music!
BRUCE JOHNSON - An asshole...and I told him so!
TODD RUNDGREN - Started to talk about recording, but annoying chick screaming at
him about free tickets wrapped up the conversation...
LOU CHRISTIE - Talked for over an hour - great guy!
NICK LOWE - A few minutes, nice guy, again shouted down by oddball groupie chick...
TOMMY JAMES - Didn't go too well - almost no one showed up at a CD release
party, and he wasn't real happy...
JOEY RAMONE - One of the nicest "stars" I ever met. Talked to you like he was a
long lost buddy. Met him twice, talked both times for half hour/45 minutes.
NON PERFORMING STARS (at least in my book...)
BILL INGLOT - Talked about Motown EQ and whale oil in recording tape.
NICK CENSI - Label owner/Producer of Lou Christie, Vogues, etc. Met him while
trying to get some friends of mine on a label he was starting. I made some
suggestions about a mix, and he loved them. Got me interested in record
production and engineering...
