Dead People You Would Like to Meet

I know a lot of you have probably wished you could meet someone who has already passed away, such as musicians, leaders of countries, philosophers, etc. Pretty much anyone whom you have admired that lived in the past.

A few people that make up my list would be Theodore Roosevelt, Mark Twain, Siddhartha Gautama, and John Cage.

Freddie Mercury, Marilyn Monroe (OBV), Micheal jackson, Cant think of much else people. All my music heroes in electronica are very much alive.

Mmm, most people I admire still live.
I'd like to meet Bradley Nowell though. And my uncle that commited suicide when I was not even one year old.

Hendrix only

I suppose if I can, I can probably translate his unplayable music in his head at that time, with digital technology now

Meeting a dead person seems like it would be a pretty one sided conversation, not to mention smelly.

Meeting them over a romantic candle light dinner with wine and soft music, it'd make it easier to score. Plus you wouldn't have to wear a condom.
