Is that scan a picture of Animal from your private collection Primuz? Did you meet him in person? What's he like?
I've heard he's ALWAYS drunk!
Fucking A'

That's a pic he signed for me backstage during the '87 "Animals Look Humorous with Drums" tour.  He was an asshole.  That signiture actually was made by Beaker because Animal was too pretentious to do it himself. >:(

Isn't that the worst?!!
You're all pumped up about meeting someone you've admired for a long time & they turn out to be a prick!

Same thing happened when i met Spongebob Square Pants.
I kept asking him questions but he didn't say shit to me!

He's a picture of me & that bastard Spongebob with the wife & kid.

Not to worry - that was all one big hilarious joke!
I'm not really Liam Gallagher (although Noel really is my brother!) & Spongebob Squarepants isn't all that bad after all!

Here's a picture of when I REALLY met Spongebob & his friend Patrick...
