I'm usually not very good with meeting so-called "famous" people. Actually I tend to walk away from them. Anyone who finds themselves facing a long line of excited people waiting for autographs and a special hello has probably heard everything. So my concern has always been whether or not I am capable of saying something more than a whispered hi, but less than a screaming HOLY FUCK I LOVE YOU!! It's just something you can't predict until it happens..ha ha. I did however get to meet all the members of Hurt at a show in Lancaster. And it was kind of scary because I absolutely love this band. J. Loren, Joshua Ansley, Paul Spatola, and Evan Johns were all very nice to me. I wonder if any of them noticed that every time they handed back the cd they were signing for me I almost dropped it? Ugh...I hope not. I think that for now, unless it's a "must talk to this one" situation, I'll just keep walking the other direction when famous people are around.
P.S. -- thought I should add this........ Just got the chance to meet Wes Borland and the boys in Black Light Burns. That was a little scary too, but I think I did ok, considering that my presence may have caused some of their equipment to break.......(long story unless you know me).
P.S. part 2 -- read my "Wow" blog for Hurt updates.
