    I oddly don't do autographs. Prefer a handshake and/or a picture with them. Maybe even a few words. Which happened with Mikael from Opeth, was so damn cool.

    I met Bob Katsionis and Gus G from Firewind at The Button Factory earlier this year. I got them to autograph a CD and I had my photo taken with them.....:D ;):D. Although, I think half the people there got their photos taken with Gus. Bob is very down to Earth, sound guy.

    I won a signed Bruce Dickinson photograph on the Iron Maiden fan club last year. :D

    I met Holyhell at Magic Circle Festival III this year. Have a signed CD. :)

    I have Lemmys autograph on a very old denim jacket. Met him backstage at Dalymount Park, where apart from Motorhead also included Anvil and Black Sabbath with Ian Gillan on vocals! Come to think of it, I think Twisted Sister played too.

    I also have Phil Lynotts autograph somewhere. I used to play drums in a band and we were playing a gig in Dalkey and believe it or not he was in the crowd. He came over after the gig and had a few drinks and a chat with us. Fantastic memories.

    Might as well throw my own one in.Have Phil Lynotts autograph on a 20 Major stub. Got it while having a pint with him in Rose Hill Hotel,Kilkenny after blagging our way into the residents lounge.He was playing with Grand Slam, 6th May 1984.

    The only autograph I have is Slash's.

    But I have met a lot of rockers.. like:

    Cacrcuss, Exodus, Matt Sorum (GnR), Dizzy Reed (Gnr), Gilby Clarke (GnR), Teddy ZigZag (GnR), L.A Guns, Glen Hughs (Deep Purple), Kerry King(Slayer), Nick St Nicholas (Steppenwolf), Chad Smith (RHCP), Matt Tuck (Bullet for my Valentine), Funeral for a Friend, Rod Smallwood (Iron Maidens Manager), Alice in Chains, Chris Holmes (W.A.S.P), Dave Alford (Ratt) ...

    That's all I can think of at the moment..

    I would have love to have met Phil Lynott.

    Cheers

    Me and some mates hung out with Mordred in 1992 during their soundcheck (in McGons) - sound guys - spent most of the day with them and got a nice thanks during the gig.
