Bands/Musicians you've met

Does meeting them over the net and regularly talking to them with the previously mentioned method count, or does it have to be in person?
 
one time i saw boris and i was like "yo takeshi, what up?" and he was like "mumble mumble"

then one time i saw some finn from circle (the finnish one)and i was like "yo [unpronoucable series of vowels] what up?" and he was like "[finnish]"
 
I've met quite a few. Bought Dave Suzuki and Tony from Vital Remains beers in 2002. Larry From november's doom plus the rest of em. and others I dont feel like typing out.

Talking to Regularly over the net... Larry from November's Doom.. Andreas from Naglfar.. Rob From Embalmer.. Aerik Von from like 9 million different bands. Brian from Sol Asunder. etc..
 
Chatted with Erik Rutan, Hellhammer, Maniac, Max of Krisiun, Luc and Steve of Gorguts, and have had email exchanges with ex-Gorguts drummer Patrick Robert.
 
The most underground person I've ever met in person was Guttural Secrete's drummer and lead singer at a GWAR concert.

No, I don't like GWAR's music... but their shows are so ridiculous they are worth seeing.
 
I told Gene Hoglan to get a fucking move on with Dark Angel. Over two years ago.
 
Online stuff didn't occur to me. I was thinking more in person. I know a lot of guys post here. Oddly enough, I think all the guys in Agalloch post.

I met Mortiis and his band while they were signing during the Danzig performance.

I also talked to Origin's bass player/singer for about half an hour before they played at some shit cafe/bar. Got to talk to the drummer and one of the guitar players too. It was a 21+ show, so I had to wait outside the whole time. Gorgasm's drummer's wife tried to sneak me in, but the bouncers tossed me out right away. On the plus side, I got to watch Origin's drummer from about four feet away since he had his back to the window of the bar.
