At Redmond.

Some of my relatives work at Microsoft.

I had the oppurtunity to meet Steve Balmer and Bill Gates at some conferences.

Never spoke to them personally though.

Brett Anderson and the boys from Suede went to the same bar (Catch-22 post-concert) that I was at (way back in the day).

A female aquaintance of mine had a rather personal time with one band member. I was happy with giving them a nod and a wave, myself, but it takes all kinds...
