I'll never forget the time Eddie Kramer looked right at me & said:

"Get off my property or I'm calling the cops!"

Just like that. I think of it every time I pull up a mix.

I once played the same festival as The Sweet. They rocked, but I had to leave halfway thru their show because our drummer was driving and just wanted to leave. Damn asshole.
 
I just had a banner weekend in Nantucket.

I was flying my stunt kite on the beach when who should walk by, but Mr. Bill Belicheck, coach of the New England Patriots. "Nice day for a kite" he says to me. "ummm.....ah....er....yeah" says me.

Smooth, Russ. Real smooth.

Later in the day, we were on the porch of our house, reading the newspaper. Suddenly my wife starts gasping...."Star.....ub..bub...bubs....Star Wars! Star Wars!"

"What in God's name are you talking about?" I ask.

"It's Star Wars!" she says.

I look up, and there is Natalie Portman walking about 3 feet in front of us. She looks over and gives my wife a quizzed look. Looking pretty hot, too. Lots of blue eye shadow and 6" stiletto heels. I kid you not.
 
When I was living in Amsterdam, I once walked towards a stage in the middle of a square and there was Bruce Willis singing. It turned out to be the opening of Planet Hollywood.
 
My roomate grabbed the lead singer of Jimmy Eat World's ass 'cause he was being a drunk jackass at a GBV show and bumping into my girlfriend and others.
 
I once had dinner with Lorreta Lynn and her crew, and she had to be hospitalized for a minor heart attack, I was 12 ys old then, two years later My parents took me to dinner with the Bakkers of PTL fame, and that same year we also had a dinner with then Mo. gov. cannidate John Ashcroft.

I was also cursed out by Little Jimmy Dickins for being backstage at my Cousins venue.(Remember "Bird of Paridise, fly up your nose").

Im a total autogragh stalker, I have arround 250 of them all from meeting celebs that come to KC. Heck in the last month alone Ive met Debra Winger, and Scott Baio, and Micheal windslow, from Police Academy.
 
Downside, there is help available. Many have recovered from Bruce Willis' "singing performances" and gone on to lead productive lives.
