Really big weekend for me, Badminton Hourse Trials, loads of people turned up, started at 8 by 9 dance floor was packed and played through untill 2am, quality night, so much fun, and at about 12 oclock guess who came up to me and told me i was doing a good job?????
Prince Harry!! He was a little worse for wear, but was nice enough, i did not realise who it was at first as i pushed his hands off my mixer as he was leaning on it!! got told afterwards and took a double take and thought S**T...
who at your venues have you met 'famious'??
I asked my uncle who has been in the game for 30 years odd, and he came up with ronnie corbett,

I was working at my local roller rink where Emma Bunton decided to hold her birthday!
I have also met Cleopatra (The group that is not the egyption!)
I have also been there when a famous footballer was there but not following football I have no idea who he was and still can't remember. He must have a son of about 12 now if that helps.
Give me a break are we name dropping again ?

Chris Pointon came to one of my gigs, have also met C.S, Paul (High Fidelity), Gary, Eskie and a lot of the others, as for very famous, you'll get the same answer as everyone else who asks..............unprofessional, but more than you have had.

**TOPICAL**
I once played on stage along side Ricky Simmonds (I think that's his name) from Grange Hill. It was in the 80's and I was drumming in my band...HERO!! We played the anti-drugs song "Just Say No" and he tried to sing.
He then tried to chat up my sister - she was about a foot taller than him!

I don't actually exist Andy. I'm just a figment of your fertile imagination. A pseudo-Ads, if you will. I am the imaginary friend that you always wanted and your wife craves.

So i'm not alone then.....
I think its brilliant that all the older guys who really have been there, done that never get drawn into this kind of thread . I know of at least one gentleman who is keeping quiet who has a list of entertained celebs that reads like the whos who of celebrities. Take a hint guys ,its tacky !

If you've done it, you don't need to brag about it, if you want to do it, you talk about it.

I've never had a celeb (even a Z-lister) at any of my gigs, but I see Prince William in Tescos at lunchtime quite often.
Cheers,
Jack.

The biggest celeb at one of my gigs was my Grandfather he made the effort to come and see me working knowing he only had weeks to live.
