Nice.

I've met a few people in passing that know some of the members of Kings X. Although I've never been a fan, and never really listened to them, I did have one guy try to convert me when I told them I'd never heard their music. I guess he was a cousin of one of the members or something similar and was very adamant about it.

Not a backstage thing, but I met Dave Murray (from Iron Maiden) while watching Duke Robillard/John Hammond Jr at Buddy Guys Legends a long time ago. I went up to the bar to get a drink, and looked to my left. Did a double take, and said (quite loudly) "You're Dave Murray!". He nodded, and I went gushing on about how I'd learned just about every lick he's ever recorded. He acknowledged my gushing, and I went off back to my table giggling and whispering to my friends "I just met Dave Murray!".
