Have you ever been rude to a celebrity?Whilst at school we had a field trip to the Ironbridge Gorge museum. Oddly enough kids TV presenter Johnny Ball happened to pick the same day to make a visit. We were rather excited and crowded round asking questions. Johnny took this rather well and held an impromptu lecture. This was all fun and games until a kid at the back threw a small rock at his head. Silence fell for a moment then Mr Ball blew a gasket and did the whole "no one is leaving until I get a confession" routine. Er.. typing this out makes me feel rather sorry for the chap. Anyway - can you beat that?

a little while ago now, when Stiltskin were at the height of their one-hit career...I went to Virgin Megastore after scool to see a very small gig. Got there very early, and ended up stood right at the front - about a couple of feet from the singer (no stage - very small gig). Not being a big fan of the band anyway I was most unimpressed. I stood with a bored-shitless expression, looking at my watch and yawning. (I must have been about 14). After they played i got them to sign my free poster. I specified to the lead singer "Can you sign this for my sister ? - She's in an exam and couldn't make it" I also Yawned at Slipknot when i saw them before they were well-known, one of the band-members waggled his finger at me in a "Don't yawn at our band." kind of a way. I couldn't help it. They were shit.
