Here Today... Gone To Hell!

I've read that some people met some of the other band members but did anyone have a chance to meet or talk to chris or brian? just curious..........

I could have met pittman, I just would never had known..

^smart ass!!

No, but I've met Chris in KC, which is his hometown.  I was at the KC Art Institute (specifically the Kemper Museum of Modern Art) yesterday, where Chris Pitman and Danny Carey from Tool cut their teeth as artists and musicians.

Did he ask if you wanted fries with your shake when you met him?

Just kiddin....

He IS the great "mover of the keyboards on their pivots"!

what was he like? did you get to talk to him at all?

Was introduced, shook his hand, said hi, and that's it.  Believe it or not, Danny Carey and him are in the area during downtime quite often; and both do soundsystem work in the metro area/and in the state Capitol on the side.  Moreover,  both are graphic artsits and are involved with the Kansas City Art Institute, which is one of the best in the country (due to the Kemper family funding, and the huge graphic arts community here--Hallmark is headquarted in Kansas City).  My friend, who works at the downtown Streetside Records,  knows Chris well, and tells me funny anecdotes every now and then.  I know this, Chris was pumping this band back in 99-2000, telling the record store clerk (who also knows Stinson from Mats gigs in the KC area) that it was the most talented band he has ever been involved with, which say's much if one really digs into Pitman's past work.  He has been involved, in some capacity, with many great bands, in addition to Tool. 

thanks for the post. he's probably hard to catch because most people dont even know what he looks like!!!

I met them both on the last night and i got brain's drum stix  ;D

awesome, did you chat with them at all?

In the UK?

Nope, in New York City ;)
