    Before Jay Leno was on TV on the Tonight Show, a friend of mine and I saw him do a routine at a not so great bar, I think it was called the Back Door. I didn't think he was very funny! As best I can remember, it was the late 70s or early 80s.

    Jamie King (White Chicks, Sin City)
    Lars Frederiksen (Rancid/ Lars Frederiksen and the *kitten*)

    Not Nicest- Lars from Rancid and Jamie King who I'm pretty sure were both high

    I got to meet William Shatner (Captain Kirk) at the opening of an emergency room, and being a trekkie since I was a kid, I was speechless.

    I saw Michael Gambon in a pub once. (He was the Singing Detective and was also Dumbledore in Barry Trotter after Richard Harris died.)

    And Michael Portillo sat next to me on the tube - he has massive bunions!

    I didn't speak to either of them, I wish I had, but you have to be all London about it and act like you're not bothered. Huh :glasses:

    Years ago, my brother and I were at a tattoo parlor and we ran into an oakland-based rapper called Ant Banks. In one of his album covers he has a photo that shows his tattoo "The big badass". I was getting a tattoo also when he was getting that tattoo. It was my brother who recognized him and ask him for his autograph. He signed the bill of my brother's baseball cap.
