So I'm walking through the mall with my Aunt, (Metal) Uncle, Mom, and 2 year old Cousin. I see a guy wearing a black t-shirt, camo pants, high boots, lots of tats, bald, wearing Oakley's, with a long beard. He was walking with a tatted up chick. I thought, "He looks kinda like Kerry King..."
A second later my Uncle says, "You know who that is, right?"
"Who?"
"That was Kerry King."
"You're kidding right?" (Thinking it was a guy who just happened to look a lot like him)
"No, that was really Kerry King. I've seen him here before."
So, I was gonna ask him for a picture, say hi or something, but I never got close enough again. I did see him carrying a few bags with his wife, one of them from Metropark. I laughed at that. Anyway...
tl;dr: I SAW KERRY ******** KING!
ITT: Similar experiences?

Steven Tyler from Areosmith lives near me. I've seen him in the mall a few times, and I got to ride the drummer of Aerosmiths jetski when I was younger.

Gravechylde Warrior of Metal But seeing them in public places? A concert isn't in public? Well, I mean doing normal things, not music-related.

I met Unexpect for about a half hour after on of their shows.
Warbringer was at the IHOP I went to after their show and we talked for a bit.
That shitty vocalist from that shitty band Atreyu sat at my table and my pizza with me a few years ago after a show.
After Eluveitie played I talked to one of the guys...the one who looks similar to that other guy....I only spoke to him shortly, it was too hard to understand him.
I hung around that shitty band Underoath's hotel room with them for about an hour.
Hmm...I think thats it, but I think I'm forgetting stuff...
EDIT: after reading what Warrior wrote I remebered.
I got something signed from Dope, Troll, and Ill Nino after a show.
I met Stitch from mushroomhead before their show.
I've talked and hung around a good 50+ local and non famous bands from MA all the way to New Jersey.
thats pretty much all my stories of meeting people concert wise....most if it happened before I was really into metal as you can tell..

LOL, you guys are funny. I was drinking beer with one of the biggest Polish metal bands ever (KAT), received a band shirt from them and was in the band's guitarist's Firebird and I'm not bragging about it. wink
Oh damn, I just did brag about it neutral

LOL, the mayor of my city lives in the same area as I do (well, a bit further away from the center) and he shops in the same store as I do, sometimes wink .
Now I'm keeping my fingers crossed for him that he would build that 4-lane road to the area we both live in so that the there are no more traffic jams...

The only thing that has happend to me is that I have seen Demon Hunter...never really got the courage to go talk to them...I get nervious in those situations. I have although talked to some local bands that have came to my church....but still I get nervious. I need to try and loosen up and just go for it the next time I am at a concert.
