Celebraty tongue tied

20 Nov 2005

Dunno if this is gunna make me sound like a seriously sad prat but.......
Today whilst driving back from 'down sarf', I pulled into a motorway service station, bought myself a coffee and found myself quite literally face to face with a rock god. after taking a few seconds to decide wether it was actually him or not, I then tried to say something like " hiya , pleased to meet you, how are you" or something like that, what I actually managed to say was " is it really you".
I mean of all the stupid questions I could ask........
has anyone else managed to make a prat of themselves infront of their idols ?
Edit, perhaps should say that after that initial bout of stupidity my tongue did become quiet lucid again, and I managed to chat to him for about 10 mins or so and he was a genuinely nice bloke

A mate of mine's going to the aftershow party for that.
She was planning on stalking Ozzy for the evening, or possibly Zakk Wylde (sp?), but Slash would be a pretty good target for her attentions.

not a celebrity but a few years ago I saw someone walking along the street that I hadn't seen since we were at school about 12 years before. He said "Oh hiya Xxxxx are you alright?" and I replied "O R A U" which roughly translates to "Oh, hi!! Yeah! Are you?" :doh: redface

Maybe you had to be there, but try saying "O. R. A. U." out loud, but slur them together and you'll get a rough idea rolleyes

I once met Mick Jones from The Clash in a supermarket in Notting Hill.
I started the conversation saying that I'd been to see the Clash a few times in Italy. He was really chuffed. Nice bloke.

Bed, well in a good few hours, anyway. Is that 'somewhere nice' enough for you?

Not dim at all Alex, just not enlightened to the magical guitar playing, not to mention a wowee body, of the former lead guitarist of Guns n' Roses :P
That guy could pluck at my strings any day of the week . . . Oh yes please! :twisted: lol

Reminds me of a time years ago when I was in a nightclub with a few friends. We had just seen Hot Gossip perform and they were having a drink. I was dared to go up to one of them and ask for a dance.
30 feet away I strutted over full of confidence
20 feet away I saw their stockings
19 feet away I tripped
10 feet away I slowed
5 feet away I started to blush
I just stood in front of this young lady, mouth agape, completely dumbstruck.
Very fortunately this girl, seeing my mates jeering from 30 feet away, looked up to me, smiled and asked if I would like a dance.
Ahhh the memories.
Such a shame that the song was not 10cc Iâ€™m Not In Love, but was in fact â€œThe Hippy Hippy Shakeâ€

David Beckham half killed me in a record store when he was coming down the stairs.... I told him off then it snak in who it was and I stood there with my mouth open, unable to speak, move or do anything until he had left.
His conversation was just as interesting! ;)
