I copied my post from the thread in the Opeth forum called "Have any relations to a band???":
I don't think I know anyone famous. I have met some musicians if that count? I've met my biggest idol, Lee Hazlewood, after his concert in Aarhus, Denmark. I had him sign all my records (16 lp's + 1 single). I have also met Mike Stern. I saw him live in Aalborg, Denmark and I had brought a couple of P-Funk records cause Dennis Chambers was the drummer, so I had him sign them (Dennis Chambers signed the records that is). The only reason I went to the concert was to see Dennis Chambers and it was defenitly worth the money, as he kicked major ass! The best drumming I've heard my entire life!!!!
I've also done an interview with Hellhammer & Blasphemer of Mayhem. It was at last years Roskilde Festival. They also signed my pic-disc of "Mediolanum capta est" and so did Necrobutcher & Maniac. I talked a little with Necrobutcher, but not that much with Maniac. I also had some pictures with them, except for with Maniac.
I saw Biohazard live and after the show they came out and talked to people, but I didn't really talk to them.
I've also met the Danish band Boghandle. I got a stick from the drummer, the guitarist made me a drawing and I had them autograf a hat I had made. This was in 5th grade I think. A girl from my school had won a competition in a Danish magazine so Boghandle played in our school gym. There was also a picture of me and some of my friends in the mag next month.
I've also met Ulrika from MTV Europe. It was too bad I only talked to her for 30 seconds or something (she had to work), as I didn't have time to fuck her in the ass!!!
I can't remember if I've met more, but those people I'll most likely never meet again, so it's not like I know them.

[MrMajs]

Ey Psychonaut, how did you meet all these metal people?

 

[Psychonaut]

Met Danzig at a signing session for his comic book line (got my Dangig III box set signed too!) and the rest I catch after shows. When you see these shows in the USA, they usually play smaller clubs so most of the time they're just hanging out with the crowd or at the bar. I just go up and start bullshitting with them. For the record, I think Christina Scabbia was the sweetest. She's a doll to talk to. Cradle of Filth is exceptionally polite as well...

 

[Stoner Sioux]

I've met alot of bands

Slayer (except for Dave Lombardo)
Arch Enemy
Susperia
Karl from Nile
Jack Owen from Cannibal Corpse
Dew Scented

[LeonBlank]

I said few words to Peter Tagtgren after Pain's latest Tampere-gig, also thanked guys of Soilwork same time, since all three bands (in flames, pain and soilwork) came to this local rock-club after the show...

[dill_the_devil]

Shane Embury from Napalm Death was in Wolverhampton checking out a Raging Speedhorn gig a couple of months ago, and I got to meet him - seems a cool guy, but you can tell he's not entirely comfortable with the whole 'godfathers of grind' adulation-fests he attracts... plus he clearly misses his booze... I've never seen anyone look so wretched at the prospect of spending all night at a gig drinking Coke... hehehe
