Some friends of mine and I hung up with the Laughing Hyaenas once after a gig at the Troubadour in L.A., and i sort've drunkenly made out with (guitarist) Larissa, who kinda almost threw up in my mouth in the process.

Bad music, questionable underlying politics to the band (but maybe that was just the moron singer), but a remarkably nice/generous guy.

hey, yeh! i was cheerfully drunk enough to get the edinburgh train "for a laff" rather than go back to glasgow.
the levellers experience was with ki3ran st3ph3n, btw. it was deeply surreal, if only because their press officer paid for us to get a cab from edinburgh to livingston and back.

Surprised they didn't pay you to go to Taunton on horse-drawn carriage to drink zoiderr. I can imagine Ki3ran liking the Levellers. The NME vs. the Levellers was one (or two) of my favourite NMEs.

My friend gave Dave Riley and Duane Dennison money to buy him beer after they wandered into his apartment one afternoon (my friends was in college and underage). They returned several hours later without the beer or the money, but offered to go on another run - for real this time - if he and his roommates would pay.

Bradley from Sublime.The Proclaimers.Got drunk across the table from J.G. Thirlwell. I say this instead of "with" because neither of us spoke much. He was in a BAD mood, and his bad moods are somewhat legendary.Slug, Dee-Jay Bird, and many of the other Rhymesayers on a semi-regular basis.
I don't know...I drink a lot, so I'm forgetting many others I'm sure.

Most "famous": Big & Rich, before they had their huge hit. Was part of a songwriting group with them for an internship, and was one of the few folks over 21, so I got to knock back the Crown Royale along with them.

My father has a similar story involving a post-show Bob Marley interview he tried to conduct at Bob's hotel room in the early '70s. Between the smoke from the biggest joints he'd ever seen and the thick Jamaican accent he didn't have much material to work from at the end of the night. He transcribed the interview rather than taped it and found the next morning that all of his notes were unintelligible scribbles.

The first occasion was prior to a gig and I felt a tad responsible for him being a bit all over the place during the performance. It did however result in a rather amusing response to the mandatory female shriek of "I want your babies" which was simply "I don't have any babies?".
The other time was after his Glastonbury debut on the John Peel stage where I took full advantage of his rider and ended up vomiting profusely whilst caked in the beautiful glasto mud.
