Rowling - natch, Dustin Hoffman, Tom Hanks, Breathed, Andy Summers, Fish - from Marillion, Illeana Douglas, Dylan, Jeff Bridges, Edward Norton, Richard Stanley, Sophia Coppola and Werner Herzog. Norman Reedus. The Young Ones mean an awful lot to me - I'd love to meet each of them. I'd love to meet all of the surviving Pythons as well - esp. Gilliam - he's my fave. Crispin Glover. SHATNER!! People I HAVE met are: Ray Bradbury, Ray Harryhausen, Forry Ackerman and Kevin McCarthy - all via Bruce Crawford, who puts on wicked event movies in Omaha. JoBeth Williams, M. Emmett Walsh, Leif Jonker and Gary Miller, Anne Rice, Clive Barker, Terry Brooks (Really, really cool guy), Christopher Walken (Weirdo), Glenn Close, Bill Self, Joe Sargent, Tricky, Ash, Kurt Vonnegut, Mason Williams, Tobey Maguire (Back in 92, before anyone knew who he was - great smoker, then...had lots of style), Bruce Campbell and The Donnas (Donna F is my fave). I ran into Stallone one time in '92, and bumped into Johnny Greenwood from Radiohead back in '95. I made eye contact with Madonna while working as an extra on the Deeper and Deeper shoot, and couldn't hold it. We were all wearing Disco clothes and it was hot as a jungle in there. All the extras parties were Disco after that shoot...between that and the Wonder Years, everyone had a ton of 70's outfits. In Seattle - so far I have only bumped into The Enigma. He was walking by as we were having lunch outside in Capitol Hill. He's pretty hard to miss. Saw him perform both times with NIN when they came to Omaha in '94 - once without cameras, the second time with large film crew (the Hurt video). Second show The Melvins were booed off cos they suck (why didn't they bring Pop Will Eat Itself?!), and Jim Rose's show went really really fast afterwards - imagine people squeezing through tennis rackets at top speed. It wasn't that the crowd was impatient - - it was cos Melvins were shite. So. Trent's set started, and he was all like, "You're all a bunch of motherfuckers!!", and the crowd went apeshit. Best shows for me in the 90's were the two NIN shows, Nick Cave in Denver at The Gothic in '90. Concrete Blonde at the late Peony Park in Omaha in '94 and Compulsion in early '95 at the late Ranch Bowl in Omaha. Oasis '97 in Chicago at the Rosemont. Be. Here. Now. WHERE IS JENNIFER FROM LURCH'S?! Penny Dreadful Terry Gilliam
