All right, all right - I just wanted to see if anyone else has met him cus he's living in Melbourne.

I think he said he has a flat on Flinders Lane. He's here till June.

He's got the right idea - Moving from summer to summer.

Theres name dropping.......................and then theres Carl Cox

This deserved its own thread and everybody knows it.

If I had bumped into Carl Cox in the street randomly and had a chat with him I would have started a thread to.

If you met Jesus Christ in the street would you tell your friends that story? To me its the same thing!

universal sea · Post by **universal sea** » Fri Feb 02, 2007 4:44 pm

Some people do tell their friends they met Jesus Christ... wherein lies the problem.

Dr How? · Post by **Dr How?** » Fri Feb 02, 2007 4:46 pm

It was pretty wierd cus I was meeting my girlfriend on Bourke and I walked up to her and she was chatting to him. I was pretty spun out. He is honestly an amazingly nice guy tho, and really willing to chat.

I high fived Glenn Robbins once. Does that count.

What about if I went to high five him and was left hanging. Cos thats what really happened.

Ok, I actually saw him from across the street and mentioned to my friends that it would be cool to go high five him, and I could have if I wanted to. I just didn't want to. Yeah.

Yeah he shops at Made In Japan at Chadstone, I sold him on the idea of using japanese tea cups for his sake instead of the sake cups cause you have to refill too often...... His missus thought that was a fine idea..... lol

No-one else knew who he was.....

He owns a house in Frankston - that is why Chaddy and not the better store at South Melbourne, cause I am pretty sure he like the beaches etc for the kiddies.....

Fred and I somehow managed to get (the crappest) accomodation in the most expensive area on the monopoly board, it is absolutely swarming with lame celebs: Mayfair spots to date: Kate Moss and Pete Doherty walking out of posh toff restaurant Cipriani, Posh Spice coming out of Claridges (huge fucking entourage in tow), That short guy from Snatch and guitarist from INXS drinking at the pub Fred works at (not together), a multitude of local actors who have had small speaking parts on the Bill or Eastenders or some such rubbish but BEST SPOT EVER - Geoffrey from Rainbow at a bookshop on Oxford street. Zippy was absent unfortunately.

Kate is absolutely fucking GORGEOUS. I would even go as far as to say THE most beautiful girl on the planet. I love her and want to have filthy lesbian relations with her. Pete can go fuck off and jack up in some dark corner somewhere.

He lives in Mt Eliza, its pretty posh & expensive.
Especially in comparison to Frankston.

Him & Eric Powell viewed my mates parents house that was for sale a few years ago.

I'm a Mountie Boy!

I grew up there and my folks still live there. I'll have to look out for him. Buggered if I know what I'd say to him though. "Hey your that dj cunt".

I'm pretty posh too *scratches arse and has a quick wank*

Having worked in one of the hotels that housed the BDO bands, I've met and made rather drunk a number of famous band members. Some of them are nice people, some of them are pretty arrogant and up themselves. Funniest story was lars getting lucky in one of the corridors with some chick

SoulWhiteMan · Post by **SoulWhiteMan** » Sat Feb 03, 2007 7:50 pm

since it's name dropping week.........

with three other people least year, after his show, we waited, talked off guards asking us to leave, but it was worth it......

I personally met Josh Davis "DJ Shadow" at the Palace. I was still tripping on pills and had my record cover and a white out pen for him to sign.

It was an amazing experience. He came across as a very polite! and HUMBLE person. Very graciouse and appreciative of the fact people were waiting so long to get his signature. For example, he told one person "sorry about how my signature looks, its hard to sign t shirts."

I wish I had something smarter to say than "it's a whiteout pen, you have to squeeze it a bit for it to work...."

After a firm handshake I said "thanks for making meaningful hip hop we all appreciate it"

and he smiled

I can remember having a chat with you while you were waiting, you were pretty wasted.

I cringe at this, but, Djing at Lounge one night i had Cathy Freeman on my dance floor for about 3hrs, i actually felt for her after 100 or drunk chicks would fall all over her saying how much they loved her. Sat around a table at Lounge discussing how Ashton from the Freestylers should go up to the girl on the dancefloor and yes she would like him, he was alittle shy. Mc Sir Real kept pestering McD and myself to roll him another spliff, a very funny, surreal night. I got to meet one my idols Phil Hartnoll a couple of weekends ago, and to have him turn around a praise my set that i had just played, with him on the dance floor rockin out too it. I got to meet Leroy from the Prodigy, which was pretty cool. I met the Soul of Man were friendly enough.

Most of them are real friendly down to earth people just like us, tho occassionaly there are those tools, who should just go back from wence they came.

But damn, next time I will try and take a photo with my shoe camera. & just in case, I pack his stuff extra carefully!
