Here's a sad one.
I met Hoyt S. Curtin. You know, the composer of, "Meet the Flintstones"? He hated me. He had written some musical for choir and an orchestra and our school was performing it. He had a drum part for it that I thought was lame, so I did my own. He flew in for the big show and conducted the orchestra. Man, was he mad that I was laying down my thing on his composition! He actually turned purple when members of the string section complimented him on writing such a "fabulous drum part". Someone gave me his autograph, but I tossed it away.
I am lame.

What? Now I'm supposed to post in the correct thread? When did that start?

It's just an experiment. Consider it like our day job. You know, optional.

I thought this was acceptable as both threads have the word "famous" in it?? no?

Thought of one - sort of.
Ok, not exactly sure he could be considered "famous" but at least he was somewhat well known... Anyway, back in the mid '80s I went with a friend to see a few bands down in Orange County at a local club. The headliner was "The Knack" of My Sharona fame (but long after fame had left the group). For those that remember their first album, they all had this clean shaven look, but not any more! Long hair and beards now - seemed a bit odd actually.
Anyway, the club wasn't exactly crowded and my friend and I got to sit at a round table right in front of the band along with a nice, little old lady who had to be all of four foot nothing tall. Throughout the set she was moving with the music and snapping her fingers, seemingly knowing every song by heart. Then, during the break, the singer (and founder of the Knack), Doug Fieger, came down and asked us "So have you met my Mom?" Turns out, she's never missed one of their gigs including all the small, nothingless ones up to the big arena affairs. We thought that was pretty cool.
[Edit: Just saw that he's now the late Doug Fieger after passing last year from brain cancer at the too-young age of 57... Oh well...]
