I had an arguement with Mario Andretti once about setting up the suspension on a race car.
I also delivered flowers to Della Reese. When she spoke I could feel my chest vibrate.
I played music professionally for many years and came in contact with a few famous people.

Performing at a hotel event sponsored by the Catholic Youth Organization, Tiny Tim came on stage and made a short speech. He thanked us for allowing him the time.

Outside Criteria Recording Studio, I met guitarist Mike Pinera (Blues Image & Iron Butterfly) who was hanging with from friends between sessions.

One group I was in often performed at a local dance hall. They changed the format to concert hall and started bringing in name acts. I was fortunate to meet bands like Canned Heat & Allman Brothers. Ted Nugent and his group partied with some of my band-mates.

A few years later in a different group, we opened for a free concert where Ted Nugent was the headliner.

Through close association with another musician, I met the members of Quiet Riot.

For a college concert, we were on the same bill as Brownsville Station (Smokin' in the Boys Room) so I got to meet Cub Koda. Was he famous??
Oh yeah, I got talking to The Pope the other day whilst walking down the high street... He agreed to pay my gas and electric bills for the foreseeable future, but drew the line at the drunken night pizza! laugh
