I've met the band too many times to list conversations and stuff. And one time I talked with Rob for about an hour at a radio station, I can't even remember half the stuff that was said. But a couple funny notes from when I met the band...
1. One time Rob signed my concert shirt (that I was wearing at the time), and he was giggling while writing something. He's not normally the one to write a little 'theme' in addition to his name (usually Gord D is the one famous for that)...but I asked him what he wrote, and he commented that it was just something that was true at the time, but wouldn't tell me what. I showed my friend who was with me, and he wouldn't say either. Buggers. So later on, I went to the little girl's room and checked in the mirror. It said 'We're behind you', with his signature. Comical (get it?? He signed it literally standing behind me).
2. One time I was eating pizza at an post-concert party backstage with the band and a hundred other people. I was just about to take a bite of my pizza when Johnny came up to me and said, frantically, 'I wouldn't eat that if I were you. I thought I saw something crawling on the entire pizza earlier'. A gentleman standing beside me commented that that was quite a unique pick-up line, haha.
3. I can't recall what show it was, but afterwards I ran into Gord D. I had seem him earlier that day (before the show, around the time of sound check), and we had a small conversation at that time (sound check). He asked me my name, where I came in from, etc. Well later that evening, after the show, he remembered my name and started singing a funny version of that rap song (LL Cool J??) 'Going Back to Cali', but instead he was singing 'Going Back to Kari'.
I could go on for days...but won't bore you all.
