Fred Durst (and all of limpbizkit) Cypress Hill (all members minus B Real :( ) Eminem RATM (all members except drummer) Dr. Dre (drove next to him in L.A. and said whatsup at a stop light hahah) David Spade (at Best Buy LoL) Kirsten Dunst hmmm..

Fred Derf Veteran Posted July 26, 2004 Veteran Share Posted July 26, 2004 Brett Anderson and the boys from Suede went to the same bar (Catch-22 post-concert) that I was at (way back in the day). A female aquaintance of mine had a rather personal time with one band member. I was happy with giving them a nod and a wave, myself, but it takes all kinds...
