Tati The Sentinel Group: Members Posts: 3360 Joined: Feb. 2002 Posted: April 11 2003, 17:12 I´d love to hear stories of people who had the chance to meet Mike in person,as well as any other Oldfield-related artist(who worked with him). Strangely enough,I have the impression that meeting Mike is so hard since he doesn´t enjoy meet and greet events and parties after album releases.... -------------- "But it's always the outsider, the black sheep, that becomes the blockbuster." - Mike Oldfield, 2014 "I remember feeling that I'd been judged unfairly and that I was going to prove them wrong." - Peter Davison, 2011 Back to top

I have the autograph of Tom and Barry, but not of Mickey, because he performed and quickly went away. -------------- -The mark of a good musician is to play one note and mean it- Mike Oldfield - 1980 Back to top
