This won't mean anything to most of you, but I got to play Beethoven's 9th in Chicago's Orchestra Hall conducted by Sir Georg Solti.

Why do they knight conductors?

Would he really be any good in battle?

i met dion sanders on the street in manhattan. i was locking up my bike and turned around and nearly ran into him.

i said excuse me and then stopped when i realized who it was. i believe my words were "hey, i know who you are..."
we both laughed and went on our ways.

i got kicked out of an aisle at toys-r-us in manhattan so gary busey could shop.

i was the escort for donald brashear at a meet and greet charity event.
i met simon gagne, peter forsberg, keith jones, bernie parent, and keith primeau at the same event.

it was hilarious to watch gagne pick up women. mainly because a few of the other players would pick up the cast offs.

Yeah, they are fine, they've just been busy.  Thanks for asking.

Despite three years in Manhattan, working on Capitol Hill for nearly a decade (politicians don't count here -- believe me, meeting most of them in person isn't all that memorable. Well, except for Rahm Emanuel. That guy leaves an impression.), flying from DC to Hollywood probably a dozen times in a completely misbegotten effort to get stars involved in environmental causes in a job after that, and now working doing marketing for a regional performance hall that brings in 20 or so national acts a year, here's the best I can do:

Amy Smart.

No offense to Ms. Smart (who actually is quite bright, fwiw), but that's not a lot to show for all those years...

Those batons are pointy and they know how to use them!

In his prime he probably would have been better than Sir Elton John.

Rod Price (guitarist for Foghat) used to live around here. He taught guitar to my colleague and hung around at his house.

Julia Child - very interesting to talk to.

Jimmy Stewart - chatted with him about planes when I was in high school and taking flying lessons. I didn't realize who he was (thought he was some retired codger doing a bad Jimmy Stewart impression) at the officers' club until my dad said "General Stewart, I see you've met my son." Nearly died on the spot.
