Right now. Tom Mitchell, a member of Jimmy Buffet's Coral Reefer Band, is visiting the other associate in my department (his cousin). He's standing right outside my office door -- even the partner who hired me is buddying up to him (he's a big Buffet fan). Buffet plays tomorrow here in Chicago.

Cool, My little brother, who is a freelance roadie, goes fishing with Jimmy Buffet's drum-tech. It's a small world after all! [img]smile.gif[/img]

I've had a few brushes with celebrity...I was at a friend's house when Sasha (big UK DJ, plays in Ibiza and used to play at Renaissance) played a private set at his place a few years ago when he was in Sydney. Got to meet the bloke, have a chat and party with him.
I used to see Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman quite a few times when he was married to Nicole, they used to have breakfast and have a run at Watson's Bay and we'd see them around a lot - their kids went to the same school as a friend of my sister's. Still see Nicole and Antonia now and then. I've met Russell Crowe in the lift at the W Hotel where my girlfriend Taryn is staying a few times, he lives in the penthouse (which takes up the entire top floor). I met and had a drink with Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss at Goodbar when they was filming Matrix I here in Sydney as I know the owner of Goodbar. I also met Bono from U2 in the toilets at the same club when U2 came here in the early 90s. I was still at uni and he was taking a leak next to me. During the end of the Sydney Olympics I ended up at Maurice Greene's private party at Establishment nightclub as my girlfriend at the time worked there and got the bouncers to let me and a couple of friends in. Got to shake his hand. Sydney can be a small world when it comes to the nightlife that counts. When I was in LA once I was in a club called the Roxy and I ended up at the bar with Christina Applegate, back when she was still in Married With Children. Absolute babe.

I guess I should mention my dad pays old T.V./Movie/Sports celebrities to sign Autographs at his retail stores ( he sell autographs) In the past he has hired the surviving munchins from the wizard of oz, Tabitha from B*Witched, and others I can't think of right now. Also my aforementioned brother claims to have smoked a blunt with Snoop-Dog during the up in smoke tour a few years back. Of course he could be Bull-Shizzling for all I know, [ 06-28-2003, 01:56 AM: Message edited by: Chewbacca ]
