I sold Donnie Walberg a DJ kit for his son...
Sold Dave Coulier (Uncle Joey from Full House) a 'Podcast Kit" for he, Bob Sagat, and John Stamos to do a weekly show...
I was in the very small Pro-Tools demo room at Guitar Center while the RZA tried out a new keyboard - and basically wrote a new tune in 20 min...
I put Alec Baldwin's bindings on his skis and ended up talking skiing with him for a good hour...
I put Tiffanie Theisen's snowboard bindings on her board for her...
Literally ran into Alissa Milano at the ski shop I was working at, she was not injured...
Got pushed out of the way to fit Kristianna Loken (Terminator 3 - the female terminator) with ski boots by my boss at the time...
Had DJ Friction ruin one of the bass knobs on my mixer at History2...
Andrew Dice Clay comes into the record shop I work at and buys house music cd's to work out to...
I caught some passes from Brett Farve when I went to a (US) football camp in high school...
My great uncle invented the machine that makes sugar cones (not the sugar cone itself, but the machine to mass produce them)...

I know theres more too, but I cant think of any at the moment...

Clea DuVall is my cousin.

Went to Engelbert Humperdinck's house one time. Apparently for weeks he couldn't get over the fact that I had blue hair.

Daryl Hannah forgot her credit card at the store next to the one I used to work at on Melrose. The woman who worked there closed the place and took off running looking for her, so when Daryl came back looking for her card, I told her the chick would be back and kept her company meanwhile.

Hung out with Anna Nicole Smith at some little house party. She was on Mollies and wearing clashing pink and red pyjamas. She kept telling everyone that she was sure I was a witch.

When my dad was a contractor, I helped him do some remodeling on Tom Morello's house. Super nice place. The only reason I found out it was his place is because when I saw him, I said "your house is so beautiful. What do you do? I want to do the same." He was like "oh, I'm a musician." "Done anything I might have heard of?" ,..

I met Claudia Schiffer and Milla Jovovich when I was modeling in France.

Carlos Castaneda used to be my next door neighbor. My mom still talks to him from time to time.

Eric Estrada once invited me to his trailer. I declined.

Gallagher once dined in a restaurant I used to manage.

Went to Steve Jones' house once. Don't really want to talk about that.

If it counts, I've met Timothy Quay, Jerzy Kucia, Peter Chung at least several times, and used to live with Igor Kovalyov.

Hrm,...can't think of any others atm.

I am directly related to John Adams, and John Quincy Adams (2nd and 5th presidents of the United States)

Also supposedly related to the Queen of England - she has the last name Bowes, as does my great grandmother. I've read a lot of people stem from this family though.

One of the most interesting people I met was Chris Kennedy (Robert Kennedy's son). A friend of mine worked as a nanny for his family, and I hung out with them at their house. He had photo's on his wall of himself with every US president since JFK, in addition to people like Nelson Mandela.. Nice guy too.

People I have met:
Forrest Whitaker
Andy Dick
Rude Jude (from the jenny Jones show - hes the homie)
Lady Kier (of Deee-Lite)
Peter Criss (drummer for Kiss)
Adam Jones (guitar player for Tool)
bunch of the suicide girls
millions of dj's, especially house, dnb, techno, or big club trance djs

People I have seen around Hollywood:
Leonard Nemoy, Kirsten Dunst, Toby McGuire (giving Kirsten Dunst a piggyback ride), Al Pacino, Danny Devito with wife Rhea Perlman, Jason Statham, that creepy little midget guy from Twin Peaks, Adam Sandler, Tommy Chong, Cedric the Entertainer, Busta Rhymes, Jamie Foxx, Flava Flav, Nelly, Common, Murs, Kenny G...

forgetting a lot Im sure.

best place to spot celebs in hollywood - vegan restaurants.

Managed to make Robert Smith from the Cure laugh by suggesting he get some big dogs to see off goths on pilgrimage to his house.

Working in Dulwich years ago, managed to tip Jo Brand off about some journo's who were trying to get pictures of her new fella.

There was a comedian years back called Norman Collier (had two gags - the faulty mic and a chicken impersonation). Asked him how his summer season at Butlins was going, and he just said they were a bunch of stnuc that were so drunk they'd laugh at anything. Ooh, the temperamental artist eh.

And met Zoe Ball and Norman Cook whilst out flyering, but then I think half of Brighton have tbh
