enjoy hearing stories of unlikely celebrity fans of bands. It was amazing seeing Devito and Rhea at the Fantomas shows in LA at the Troubadour. There's Lady GAGA's love of Maiden, Bill Paxton and Mike Muir running around town seeing punk shows in the early 80's, Belushi and Beef Baloney from Fear and Hammer Horror actor Sir Christopher Lee's obsession with heavy metal. Any weird Hollywood encounters or unexpected fans or stories? Thanks man.

MY ANSWER

Hmm, can’t think of any. Typically celebrities have a sort of magnetism for each other and for better or worse, not being what I would consider a “significant celebrity” I tend to avoid any of that. It doesn’t help that I like to spend my time backstage in a remote corner by myself eating salad. I also don’t spend very much time in Hollywood. I saw Steven Tyler in the grocery store once!
