Meeting pop stars online

I've conversed with American Idol contestant Didi Benami online before, and she's tweeted me quite a few times.

Also, Amanda Palmer from The Dresden Dolls, who's really nice - and her boyfriend, writer Neil Gaiman tweeted me once. I tweeted him to embrace the tambourine as his calling in life, and he tweeted me with, "Alas, the glory I would garner as a tambourinist would distract me from my true path."

Dave Wyndorf, the lead singer from Monster Magnet used to be really active on his forum back in the day, and I was also active, so he and I talked quite a lot on there, about any number of things really.

My main thrill was a 3 month internet correspondence with Brian May from Queen. He responded to a lot of my letters in his "soapbox", and actually emailed me for a little while. Probably the most exciting time of my life.

holy crap i'm jealous. don't suppose you know anything more about the new Monster Magnet disc besides what's on wikipedia? (it's apparently going to be called Mastermind and was supposed to be out this summer, now October...)

i'm also STILL trying to score a replacement copy of Superjudge. i know i could order one online or something but i'm old school and rather find it on a shelf.
