    Anyone have any photos of themselves, from any era, with famous rockers or what not?

    Me and Mike Bordin from Faith No More

    Met Phil Demmel back in Feb 2010, and he was kind enough to pose for this photograph

    And I needed to include this, from a few years ago, me and Martin Spurlock (he posed for this in Cineworld lol)

    Thats myself with Alice in Chains. I've also drummed onstage with Metallica, met QOTSA, Slayer, Trivium, Dropkick Murphys and a few others. Too lazy to go linking photos though!

    Met Billy Corgan and Jimmy Chamberlain on the beach in Barcelona. Told them muzzle was my favourite tune of theirs and they played as their last encore that night. Awesome guys. (Jimmy was a bit of a prick though!)

    Taken in 1983/1984 ( i think) ... I met the whole band including Cozy Powell but only got the 2 photos below


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 74 ✭✭paligulus1


    That picture with Corgan and Chamberlain is great. Corgan and Chamberlain look like they're doing a photo-shoot for NME while the two lads are doing the standard lad pose! Brilliant...

    I have a theory that if Ron Jeremy was a drummer he'd look like Puffy.

    Lucky bastard!!! Was Sykes part of that line up??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,077 ✭✭✭✭bnt


    No photos, but I have had a talk with Robert Fripp (King Crimson). He's one of those private people who doesn't want to deal with fans when he's "off duty", so I suppose that means he's not a "rocker" when he hasn't got a guitar in his hands. :cool:

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    Yep.... along with Neil Murray,Mel Galley and Cozy Powell ....It was the "Slide It In" tour...Which would make it 1984....they were playing the SFX and the pictures were taken in the Gresham Hotel in Dublin.... Ahh... the memories...:D:D:D

    I have to ask, given how incredible this is, did you ever have an experience you feel tops this?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,065 ✭✭✭✭Malice


    Not looking at anyone in particular but please don't quote a bunch of photos just to post a one line response.

    The scroll wheel on my mouse doesn't need the extra strain :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,510 ✭✭✭population


    Class thread people. Joe Elliot is the only one I have met but was doing some work for him at the time so it never seemed appropriate to ask for a pic. He did however sign a ticket for my little sister when she was an audience member on that RTE music quiz thing with Ian Dempsey. Will try dig it up next time I am home:)

    DO EET! I ought'a be getting a bit of credit for it though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,245 ✭✭✭old gregg


    met a few folks down the years but seldom had a camera at gigs but did recently meet one of my favourite rockers, Liam Cormier from Cancer Bats

    Ha, not just a clever username then! :pac: Ah, just kidding. Kudos for the Meshuggah "I" tee though.

    I did meet Laura Pleasants (Kylesa) after their gig a few years ago. Didn't get a pic though. :( (It did happen, no really!) She just appeared after their set and was signing autographs.

    I'm such a nervous idiot though. The connection between my mouth and brain just stops and I end up saying stupid, random, inane sh!t.

    If there was a competition running for this kbell would win! Amazing pics.

    PMSL - I actually thought that you were the younger fella, and that you were meeting Dave Murray from Maiden!!!!! :D You're the image of him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,245 ✭✭✭old gregg


    tell ya what though, even as an old bastard I wouldn't cross the road for Maiden but would be at the rails for Meshuggah. I'd hoped to catch them at Hellfest this year but cruelly I'll be playing a (non rock/metal) festival in France the same weekend.

    Cormier is a hell of a nice guy and as for Cancer Bats, brilliant party band. I'm just annoyed that they are not hitting Dublin on the current tour.
