I remember your story about seeing Molly Ringwald purchasing a lamp.

Queenie:
Have you ever glimpsed Yoko?
(Tue Jan 8, 2002 - 1:32:47 pm)
Queenie:
That sounds like the name of a movie: "Glimpsing Yoko".

I saw Yoko once, Tom's friend put track lighting in her loft and smoked a doobie with Sean when he was on break from school in Switzerland. We met Rick Nielsen a couple of years ago and he was really mean to Tom so Tom gave his autographed album to my friend Alexandra.
(Tue Jan 8, 2002 - 1:34:01 pm)
Queenie:
Didn't Tom once put track lighting in some famous person's home? I seem to remember this story. It was a lady, and she was nice. Who was that?
(Tue Jan 8, 2002 - 1:35:03 pm)
bela:
Tom was really nervous getting his album autographed by Rick Nielsen and Rick said to Tom "Hold it Still". Tom was like, hes a dick.

Decoy and I visited that little grotto in Central Park, Strawberry Fields, and Yoko was hanging out selling tiny little shards of John's broken glasses in little crack viles with certificates of authenticity. They were $40 each. Crazy bitch.

He did the sprinkler system in Bjork's studio. He was there when she was recording that Vespertine and her kid just sat in front of the tv and played video games.

Queenie:
I remember when I asked Robyn to sign my CD, and he said "OK" so I handed over "Eye" and he said, "Great. 'Eye' is notoriously difficult to autograph" and I felt very bad.
(Tue Jan 8, 2002 - 1:36:18 pm)
Queenie:
That was the story. Bjork. Didn't he say she was nice?
(Tue Jan 8, 2002 - 1:36:37 pm)
Queenie:
Was she pretty in person?

Yeah, he said she was really cool and nice. He met Annie Lennox once, she walked under his ladder and he started talking to her and she said she was totally nice. ONce he was working in this building and Ferris Buehler and Jennifer Grey came in looking at the place. He said Jennifer Grey was really cool but Mathew Broderick was a snotty asshole.

Getting John Doe's autograph was one of my most embarrassing celebrity encounters to date.
(Tue Jan 8, 2002 - 1:38:06 pm)
Queenie:
Annie Lennox is kind of scary.

Queenie:
That's some moustache that fellow has, theo.
(Tue Jan 8, 2002 - 1:39:05 pm)
Queenie:
Did he let you touch it? Another movie title: "Fingering Rollie's Moustache".

He and his friend saw Todd Rudgren on the street and talked to him for an hour.
(Tue Jan 8, 2002 - 1:40:05 pm)
Queenie:
I'm sure Tom told Todd what a super job he did on "English Settlement".

Thats what I love about New York, everyone has some fucked up celebrity stories. I told you about my friend who is the chef and he was working at this place and Al Paccino and Berverly D'Angelo came in and they started fighting like crazy and he left and got in the SUV and started driving away and she was screaming and trying to get in the car.
(Tue Jan 8, 2002 - 1:41:39 pm)
bela:
Oh, I'm sure he was totally up his ass about that.

I think the band I missed and should have saw to make life complete would have been CamperVanBeethoven.

Queenie:
Ha ha! That's great. Another friend of mine was working as the manager of some swanky hotel somewhere and Sam Waterston came in and demanded a room, and she told him that they were all booked up due to a wedding, but he was such an insistent asshole that she finally said he could have a room provided he left by checkout the next morning. He agreed, but when she tried to clear him out the next morning, he grew enraged and went off, saying shit like, "I'm an AC-TOR. I need my sleep!" Anyway, she finally got him to leave, even offered him a lift, but he just took a cab.

Did I ever tell you guys my friends Dustin Hoffman pantyhose story? It's great.
(Tue Jan 8, 2002 - 1:45:26 pm)
Sleepy:
I have an Annie Lennox story, but I won't bore you with it. It concerns a friend, anyway.

Chewing Wax:
I have an Annie Lennox story, but it concerns a photo of her from a magazine. Not really about meeting her or anything.

Queenie:
So this girl was staying at a hotel and she got a runner in her pantyhose, so she ran out to grab another pair, and she got on the elevator clutching her package of pantyhose, when Dustin Hoffman got on. She stood there nervously, very aware of the fact that a big star was standing next to her, and she tried very hard to conceal the package of pantyhose out of embarrassment. When the elevator stopped and Dustin got off, he turned just as the doors were closing and said to her one word: "pantyhose" and then the doors closed. I love that story.
(Tue Jan 8, 2002 - 1:51:54 pm)
Queenie:
Sadly, I can't remember exactly who told me that story.
(Tue Jan 8, 2002 - 1:52:29 pm)
Chewing Wax:
Why would anyone be embarrassed about pantyhose?
(Tue Jan 8, 2002 - 1:53:35 pm)
Queenie:
I dunno.
(Tue Jan 8, 2002 - 1:55:03 pm)
Queenie:
I would be, were I standing next to a movie star.
(Tue Jan 8, 2002 - 1:55:12 pm)
Chewing Wax:
Why? Who cares?
