10 Things I've Done That You Probably Haven't

There's a famous person theme here, because I'm generally a boring guy who never gets into trouble or is that adventurous... :p

10. Had a fifteen minute conversation about bass playing and recording with Dougie, the bassist for Travis.
9. Explained to comedian Steven Wright what the difference between a milkshake and a frappe is (it's a New England thing...)
8. Saved Pat Morita (aka "Mr. Miyagi") from certain paper towel doom
7. Gotten Budgie, the drummer from Siouxie and the Banshees (and now The Creatures) to burst out laughing because I made fun of The Cure's Robert Smith
6. Sat next to Bruce Campbell for a good hour before actually recognizing him
5. Saw Radiohead at their very first show in the United States
4. Waved hello to NBA player Paul Pearce as he walked by my department at Yankee Candle
3. Bumped into Nuno Bettencourt from Extreme when he used to frequent the record store I used to work at
2. Bought the first Ben Folds Five cd off of Ben Folds himself

And probably the most important famous-person thing that's ever happened to me:
1. Met, talked, and gave customer service to ex-Beatle George Harrison.

Dear God! Never tell Kirsten that you met a beatle. She'll leave her husband and follow you around the country for sure. LOL. (If you have no idea whom I'm talking about, ask [livejournal.com profile] emmalyon; she's a friend of ours from college.

Were you there when I told her my aunt had seen the Beatles in concert and she literally dropped to her knees???

No, but I can imagine it without any effort whatsoever.
