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?

Time to reflect....
I have toured with the Wildhearts and Therapy? as photographer, and have had my shots used on a couple of Wildhearts CDs as well as Ginger solo stuff, Electric Eel shock and a few others bands. I've photographed Alice Cooper, Janes Addiction and several other famous bands, and all officially. And I am fortunate that I can call several fairly famous people in Rock mates.

I have got pissed with Dennis from Auf Wiedersehen Pet, Mark Owen from Take That once gave me his glass of wine as he had to rush off, Been namechecked by Antiproduct to a packed crowd at the Melkweg in Amsterdam (and had my manhood exposed at another gig on stage by Alex), I've had beer with Quentin Tarantino, been backstage with the Darkness, shared a train journey with Wim Kok (Dutch PM), chatted up Share Pedersen from Vixen (a personal favourite), helped out the guys from Wolfsbane, called Jarvis Cocker a "Metal God",Shared flights with Feeder and Dutch pixie sensation Sita, had a piss next to the drummer of the Black Crowes, Drank a lot of beer with Thunder, Been offered a Rim Job from the love child of Hazel O'Connor and molesth Cornwell of the stranglers, been out on the Raz with Reg Holdsworth from Corrie (He is one of my dearest friend's uncle),called Nicky Campbell a pretentious twat, made Phill Jupitus sing in Dutch, told Gene Wilder how much I loved him in blazing saddles, Accidentally shoved my arse into Suzi Quattro's face and been told by Vic McGlynn that I have an annoying voice (though I did win a DAB off of her).

And probably the top of all is that one of my bestest mates has chalked up over 100 FP's on B3ta - Darryn.R - gawd bless ya!
