haha well, I see "celebs" on a daily basis since they are my co-workers, clients and friends so after 10+ years in the business its just become regular daily life to me.

I used to work with a local actor named Chad Rook. If Project Grey ever becomes a big movie the folks from that film as well (I was in it in the asylum scene)

Andrew W.K. was the nicest fucking musician I've ever met. He was a genuinely nice person who seemed excited to meet people who like his music. Good guy.

At a staff party I bashed into Bif Naked not once but twice while blindly drunk. Her music label owned by the company I worked for. Shes absolutely tiny.

Also I've been up to the Jeff O'Neil morning show a couple of times back when I was in radio school. Met Scotty, Charis, and of course Jeff. Also met Neil Morrison (who I'm admittedly not a fan of)

I've also interviewed Alan Cross (from The Ongoing History of New Music) over the phone. Friendly guy who found it a little hilarious that I was intimidated by him.

I've met the RZA and I think he's pissed at me for yelling "Bobby Digital" at him.

I've also met Hyde from that 70's show.
