    There seems to be a lot fo threads on boards about the "famous" people posters have met. To be fair they all quite dull. Generally they go like this

    I met X while I was in Y. X was really cool.

    Now thats great, but not very intresting. How is the maddest famous perosn posters happened to met.

    For me its a toss up between David Lynch, Crispen Glover and Daniel Day Lewis.

    Said hello to Day Lewis and he has jsut said 7

    I still have nightmares about Glover and his dememnted film It is Fine. Everything is Fine!

    As for Lynch Ive completly blacked that night out

    Met one of the guys from westlife in a nightclub. He's not crazy but he wasn't long getting there once my friend got sick on his shoes.

    Crispin Glover never recovered after that dude from the future visited him one night.

    Met Flava Flav after a gig in The Village.
    He was carrying a few bags of oranges and a carton of Dawn orange juice at the time on his way to the Stephen's Green Hotel. Bizzare.

    I met that burd that says 'they're not Terrys, they're mine' from the chocolate orange ads. Sagging breasts tbh.

    Haha Crispen Glover... now there is a man who I would love to meet.

    Him on Letterman was brilliant!

    This is the guy who wears a stupid big clock around his neck and you find him holding oranges is bizarre. Now that truly is bizzare.

    Christy from Aslan...is he considered as being crazy?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,021 ✭✭✭m83


    Paul Whitehouse once stopped and asked me the time.

    Which was nice.

    What type of issues. If you mean the big issue then that would be pretty crazy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,090 ✭✭✭jill_valentine


    She's just really, tremendously unpleasant. Can't quite manage a normal human conversation. Dismissive, enormously self-obsessed, and just.... off, generally. Yes, that's it. There's something a little bit... off.

    I lived with Seal of Crazy fame before he became famous. We shared a room together for 6 months in Queens Park (Brondesbury Road to be exact) in North London. He was kinda wild and was renowned for having a different girl (sometimes two) in his bed at night. We would hit the Wag club and Camden Palace at the weekends and have a blast. I remember some of the parties he would throw when he would invite around his musician friends ... good times!

    Kim Deal when she was an alco (and whatever else she may have still indulged in). She was very nice, good craic but she was tough for her tour managers to keep a handle on.
    Walked down O Connell street with her a few years ago as we made our way to their aftershow party and someone wanted to show her something in her music shop. Kim went with her and vanished. The girl who led her off got a bit of an interrogation off the manager, who was cursing her for her constant drunken shenanigans but no one knew where she magically disappeared to so they left her.

    Me too. And to be honest he is a bit nutz. That fall off the bike did nothing to help him.

    I sold cocaine to some model last year. I thought she was crazy for that stuff, but she's never bought more off me since.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,184 ✭✭✭✭Pighead


    Pighead met Santa Claus back in 1987 in the Dundalk Shopping Centre. Whilst sitting on his knee the overwhelming stink of alcohol on his breath caused a young nauseous Pighead to get sick all over his dirty red trousers.

    He wasn't one bit happy about what happened but still gave a dartboard with a plastic dart as a present. However and here's the scary bit, attached to the dartboard was a letter with the words "I am going to kill you on Christmas Eve" It was stamped with a reindeer's paw-print thus proving the validity of his claims of being Santa.

    Christmas is a horrible time for Pighead.

    Cindy Reich top ten experiences
    "St. Brigid’s Night, St. Brigid’s Cathedral Kildare town – 1996(?) Wondrous night of music with Sinead O’Connor, Noirin Ni Rian, Luka Bloom, Christy Moore, Conor Byrne, Liam O’Maonlai, Jimmy Higgins, and many more. Afterwards a mighty session with many of the above until about 4 am at a local down the street.
    The path up the Hill of Allen was lit by burning tapers at 6am on a cold February morning. As the sun rose, Luka Bloom and others serenaded the group of people at the top before heading out on a ten-mile famine walk. An instance where you really understood the connection between song and place."
    I was there,Luka Bloom was amazing but Sinead O Connor is definatly a few sandwiches short of a picnic, there was a lot od swaying going on. It turned me into a hippy (thats what mother says):o
