People are strange...

So a good friend of mine in the area lives next door to the drummer from Distrubed. He moved in over the Summer I believe. Fans found out and have been camping outside of the house. Yes, camping. This is a very quiet and modest neighborhood... it's not like people are hanging outside the gates of a 500 acre estate. I guess the guy and his bandmates have had to move out of a few homes because of obsessive fans causing general havoc.

No real point to the story other than the fact that people are freaks. All more reason I don't want to be even moderately famous. Just let people live their lives... if you want to support an artist than go to their shows and buy their t-shirts. Don't take video of them taking out their trash on Tuesdays.

It's called having NO life of your own and therefore you must GET INTO someone that has a life so that you can actually be somebody (all in your head of course)

Hmmm....that could be taken wrong

I hear ya Jay - being famous isn't all it's cracked up to be.

Hmmm....I spose that could be taken wrong too

My mother is a famous actress in Spain and she moved to Orlando five years ago just to avoid this kind of situations... Believe me, it's a pain in the ass!!.

So Jay... I heard you bought the new Disturbed CD and are now learning all their songs. I guess that's ok, but do you have to play them out on the porch?
