I used to work for our civic center in the catering department. Steven Curtis Chapman was in concert and I got to cater his dressing room! I met him and his family and actually have a picture with him somewhere! So cool. I felt so darn special! lol

I got to meet Bruce Hornsby when I was a kid. My brother's Godmother was one of the people who managed him so we were able to go to a concert and then go backstage. I remember it as very cool.

I met Alice Cooper, I had backstage passes. He was so nice, posing for pictures and autographing tons of stuff for us. He was so awesome!

I sat 2 seats away from Little Richard on a plane to Orlando. He STUNK like booze and I couldn't wait to get off the plane! I guess he wasn't "big" enough for first class! It was a Southwest flight!

I've met Bruce Springsteen many times. He's from my hometown. My dad sold radio equipment to him and we went with him to Bruce's house when he delivered it!

Jenn, that is cool!!! You have to find that pic and scrap it for us!!!


I've never met a band, singer, group....just not a groupie!!! I suppose it comes from being raised with friends who's Dad's were astronauts in the '70's and despising the crap of press and onlookers experiences. At 10-12 years of age it got old real quick.

I got to go back stage at a Rush concert, I had back stage passes for Bon Jovi but we got lost going to the concert so I missed out on that, although I still had my front row seats for that show so I did grab Jon Bon Jovi. I also got to party with Lars from Metallica!

I went to see B.B. King in Savannah, and after the concert I saw a line of people standing at a bus. It was his bus so I stood there, got on the bus and sat and talked with him for 30 mins. XDH and I were the last people in line, and XDH Mom is from the same town as B.B. My DSis (both of them) got to meet Huey Lewis!! :-D I should find that pic and scrap it!!
