Don't think so; but I may have passed him in a corridor at some point.

Mind you, I didn't think I'd ever met a green faced alien, but.................

An old band of mine once supported The Wombats, and I've seen the lead singer of The Pigeon Detectives a couple of times in York city centre.

The sunglasses hide the fact that I've got red eyes, too...

Back to claims to fame; my dad once carried Bob Monkhouse's "luggage" up to the changing rooms of a gig for him... and didn't even get any sort of remuneration!

I wouldn't have thought he'd have been short of a bob or two... (boom tish)

I've just remembered another! A saxophonist that I used to be in a band with has a son, who works as a courier and delivers packages to Duffy.

Tenuous, I know..

Oh and one of my bestest mates is The Streets tour manager for the festival season. Keep your ears peeled for eli ( paperboy) Reed. If a bit of Philadelphia blues is your thing check him out. He dropped me off a CD of his work today it is well good. http://youtube.com/watch?v=YasAw3CJ9GE&feature=related

I managed to get access to the green room after a recording of QI. Stephen Fry and David Mitchell left rather quickly, as did Emma Thompson, and Alan Davies stayed for a little bit. John Sessions talked to quite a few people. Sadly, I was too nervous and shy to talk to any of them, but I did manage to talk to the producer, John Lloyd, who is a lovely man.
