Kurt Ralske posted to an Ultra Vivid Scene thread! I fawned shamelessy IIRC.

I always get A Certain Ratio mixed up with A Perfect Circle. I know.

Jo Youle out of Scarlet.

(Okay I just looked and apparently I did all of my fawning off board in my head.)

I tried to get Paul Barman to post on an MC Paul Barman thread, but he said "Why would I post on a thread of hate like that?"

This depresses me hugely, as I have nothing but respect and admiration for Paul Barman.

xpost: It was Dave Papworth from the Desperate Bicycles.

How about musicians/other famous people who have read your blog? I've had Mariza, all five members of The Scissor Sisters, Piret Jarvis from Vanilla Ninja, and Steve Harvey from Medium Medium.

Brad Laner from various bands posts now and then, including leaving a link to his first video appearance with Captain and Tenille, tearing up "Muskrat Love" something fierce!

Members of Nuclear Valdez ("Summer") and Flaming Ember ("Mind, Body & Soul," "Westbound #9") have contacted me because of blog entries I made about them.

all five members of The Scissor Sisters

! What prompted that, or should I ask?

I reviewed a small club gig of theirs at The Cock Live in London in the Summer of 2003, which got me into the top ten on Google for "Scissor Sisters" for a while. Babydaddy sent me a nice friendly "thanks for the mention" e-mail shortly afterwards - then when they played The Social in December 2003 (small 200-ish capacity venue), I got talking to all of them afterwards, and discovered that all of them had read and remembered the review. It was, shall we say, a Moment.

Wait, hold on.

When Scott Walker posts on ILM he makes sure to wait a decade before posting again.

Guys, whatever we do, let's promise to try and bait Yngwie Malmsteen to post here. I'm sure the lol-factor will last for years.

All is clear.

not really famous, but when we were discussing Dylan's New Wave performance on Letterman, the guitarist, JJ Holliday, showed up to talk about it w/ us. he had a cool story

lukevalentine, Sunday, 7 March 2010 18:37 (fourteen years ago) link

I tried to get Beck to post here when I met him.

"it's the coolest message board, man, and everybody seems to know know everything."

Beck (giving me a pretty blank stare): ...sounds pretty cool...

I swear to the heavens that after that I thought about semi-ironically asking him "so how about that Merriweather Post Pavilion, eh?" but decided against it.

looooool

Daniel, I think it is on a RIP thread. Nick managed them or sth. When he died, someone started a RIP thread and they posted on it.

That's how I remrmber it. Cld be wrong.

I'm anticipating Andrew Antone's visit

When Frank Black posts on ILM he WILL BREAK INTO ALL CAPS randomly.

I wouldn't be surprised if quite a few musicians post here occasionally. I'd also be surprised if they used their real names. I mean, we're talking about people who love music, and probably like discussing it from time to time.

musicfanatic, Sunday, 7 March 2010 20:36 (fourteen years ago) link

Should my appointment as Lizard Occupation Government proconsul be approved, I vow to continue to post here, though my posts of course will all be commands.

M.V., Sunday, 7 March 2010 21:16 (fourteen years ago) link

the bassist for Morley Grey (who, uh, are only really "famous" to psych heads into obscure albums) posted here, and the thread title even spelled his bands name wrong-

RFI: Morly Grey

I wonder if we can get anyone to do a televised ILM shout out like Slug did for the Philaflava board on Jimmy Kimmel.
