63. I rounded a corner to literally bump into Jimmy Page and Paul Rodgers.

Edited on Wed May-21-08 03:30 PM by EnviroBat

They were coming out of a tour bus: April 27 -- Kalamazoo, MI 1986. I was 17, and I couldn't believe these two legends were standing right there laughing because my girlfriend and I were in shock. The best we could do was "Uh b'd um er uhhh oh my god..." I think my girlfriend squeaked out "hi." We didn't get an autograph as they were heading in for a sound check, and we were to dumb-struck to ask.

Years later I went on to work a hospitality job at a local concert venue. I met lots of famous musicians, but none ever had that effect on me.
