The next time you'll see him , he will be surely in a better mood and he will talk to you !   Don't talk about God like that! You're blaspheming ! Back to top

Airborne Group: Members Posts: 192 Joined: Sep. 2006 Posted: Mar. 25 2010, 15:08 I met him backstage at the John Anson Ford Theatre in 1993. We chatted for a good 10 mins - mainly about TBII but he also urged my partner and I to visit Joshua Tree National Park. It was a very pleasant experience, probably because he knew who I was and any bad experience would have been written in the fanzine. He signed my booklet for the Elements boxed set - it was an advance copy from Virgin. We also helped ourselves to some of the post concert nosh that was on offer. Back to top
