Anybody have stories of meeting musicians? Were they cool or were they dicks?
I saw MC Ride at a grocery store in Sacramento yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw Ride trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

I met Fatboy Slim while doing sound engineering at a club in Brighton.
He's like a really easygoing dad, he seems to understand what effect his music has on people and why it makes him popular. He even paid for my taxi back to my hotel.

I saw Jarvis Cocker on the tube once, i asked if it was him and he said "Shh don't tell anyone". Fucking smooth mother fucker, exactly what I expected. Besides him looking like an old man, though i think its his "look" these days.
I saw Thom Yorke at a grocery store in Los Angeles yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

Met porter robinson at anime expo and hung out for a while and he was pretty braindead.
I dated a girl who met Radiohead after a concert, apparently they were all very nice people and were thankful that people loved their music as much as they did.
