Do punk bands count? I've hung out with quite a few at bars after shows. I guess the only really famous one was John Doe from X at a bar in san diego.
"Oops there goes another year - there goes another pint of beer."
"I drank one and it turned to four. On the floor and I drank more. Now I'm never seeing you again!"

Bars you worked in?
REM. They were nice boys, I waited on them several nights. Then hung out with them after. Course, Mr. Stipes was too snooty to ever show up, no big loss there.
Hulk Hogan and Christina Applegate. Some dumb NFL team that just won the Superbowl or something and thought they were hot shit big studs. :roll: Only was made aware of this cos lots of people in the bar were excited. But not me. Um, there are many more... oh yeah.
The bass player from Skid Row bought me and my friend pitchers all night at Kagan's. Not working that night. Jim Rose sideshow guys, I ditched philosophy class to show them around the french Quarter.
Never mind the "famous" punk rockers...

Um...I bumped into (literally, almost knocked the guy on his arse) the singer for Spacehog. And the singer for the Cadillac Tramps (fucking AWESOME show!) thought I was a bouncer. I scared the shit out of him cause he didn't see me next to him. Funny guy to talk to.
As an employee at a fast food place in the 90s, I met the guys from Julian Cope as well. Nice enough folks, but they were loaded out of their skulls.
I've met "The Bayonne Bleeder" Chuck Wepner and Gerry Cooney. I asked someone if I could get one round with Cooney. Sure, I'd get my head smashed in. But I bet I could get ONE nice hit in before he ended my consciousness.

Not counting bands at shows? I guess nobody I really listen to is that famous...
I've met Jimmy "Supa Fly" Snooka--he made me buy him a beer.
Scott Krauss--former drummer for Pere Ubu--not exactly a celeb, but a personal hero. Accosted him drunkenly in a bar one night, bought him shots. I guess it's not that big a deal because he lives down the street from me.
I ran into Pauly Shore one night in a bar. My friend and I debated buying him a drink, but decided it'd be a waste of money.

Smoking cigarette and drinking rye
I was feeling human in the shadowed light
I was born waiting for the lights to change
I'm here heading into the rain
I'm alive
let's get drunk & drive
Pere Ubu--Wasteland

That's funny. I ran into Cuba Gooding Jr. at a bar in a casino once. My friends and i were debating whether or not it was him. I guess he heard us mention his name because he turned and smiled at is like he was gonna give us an autograph or something. I said, "Yeah, it is him," and we turned and walked away.
