i went to a PATD concert last spring. My friend and I were insanely hot because the venue was so crowded (we were in the pit) and Brendon asked us if we needed water. We said yes and he took a drink from it and threw it on us.... haha. Funny guy

Not counting concerts I haven't met too many famous people.
To actually say hi shake hands and or have a conversation:
Clinton Anderson
Craig Cameron
Michael Martin Murphy
Ted Nugent
Bob Seger
Russell Smith (amazing rhythm aces)
Jimmy Huston (fishing guy)
Judd Hirsch
Thats pretty much it. I waved at President Reagan as he was driving by and have almost made it on Air Force One when its in town getting worked on.

While in college, I met Count Basie, and The Young Rascals (our fraternity had them each perform a concert).

I met Louie Armstrong at the JFK Airport in NY and spoke to him a bit.

I nearly ran over Douglas Fairbanks Jr. while driving in NYC in the 70's - he was J walking.

I had dinner with Whitey Ford once.

Met Mel Gibson and Jodie Foster when they were filming the movie Maverick in the Columbia Gorge (Oregon/Washington). I was SO bummed at how short Mel really was!!

I met Robert Palmer backstage at a concert he did at the college I was attending in 1988. He was wasted. But he was HOT!

He's a very big deal. ;)

Adam is pretty awesome. They are actually from around my hometown. I just found out my cousin is distantly related to him somehow ... I knew her dad helped them with their music and such when they were younger but I didnt know he was related...
