This is a question Claims to Fame

Rob writes, "My photoshop claim to fame: the way the crop tool greys out the rest of the image? That was my idea. I sent it to the Abobe features request thing back in ooh probably about 1998. (After spending a frustrating day cropping images for a dull
website, and wishing the tool worked better.)"

What crappy claims to fame can you make?

Plenty here
Apart from appearing on Sky Sports (crowd shots at Gillingham) and MTV (crowd shot at the 5 night stand gig a few years ago when Garbage were headlining) I've met a fair few musicians.

Outside gigs I've met all four of the Donnas (nice girls, really friendly), Charlotte Hatherley and Tim Wheeler from Ash, the Subways, and the Darkness before they went huuuuge (had a five minute discussion with Justin about a Lowestoft theme park, and Ed the drummer gave me beer - still got it somewhere). I also met Melissa Auf der Maur (formerly of Hole and the Smashing Pumpkins - now a solo artist) twice in three days - I was impressed that she remembered me, if only for the lollypop I'd given her. Pic here.

I've also served Suggs, Barry McGuigan, Toyah Wilcox and various Kent cricketers at Rymans.

But the main crux of this post, pointless though it is, is to mention the time I confused Grant Nicolas of Feeder. By giving him my autograph instead of asking for his.
