Jim Norton
On April 11, 2014 my brother and I went to see comedian Jim Norton perform at Side Splitters Comedy Club in Tampa, FL.
After the show, Jim took the time to sign autographs and take pictures with everyone in attendance.
Jim signed the DVD cover of the movie Crooks.

Professor Griff
On June 6, 2013, The Kings of the Mic Tour (LL Cool J, Ice Cube, Public Enemy, and De La Soul) performed at The Mahaffey Theater in St. Petersburg, Florida.
The weather was absolutely horrible on this day with heavy rain and strong winds. That didn't stop me from arriving at the theater at 11am that morning (completely soaked), hoping I'd get the chance to meet the artists as they showed up for sound checks.
A couple of hours after I met Ice Cube, I recognized DJ Lord and Professor Griff of Public Enemy arriving together. Both guys were really cool.
Professor Griff signed the front cover of Public Enemy's It Takes a Nation: The First London Invasion Tour 1987 DVD.

Grand Wizard Theodore
On April 1, 2006, Main Street Lounge in Louisville, Kentucky hosted a free turntablist show featuring D.J. QBert, Rob Swift, Grand Wizard Theodore, and D.J. Steve Dee.
After the show I saw Grand Wizard Theodore and Steve Dee waiting outside for a cab. I had the phone number to the taxi company in my phone, so I gave it to Steve so he could call and get them a ride back to their hotel.
Grand Wizard Theodore signed the back cover of the Scratch DVD.

D.J. Steve Dee
On April 1, 2006, Main Street Lounge in Louisville, Kentucky hosted a free turntablist show featuring D.J. QBert, Rob Swift, Grand Wizard Theodore, and D.J. Steve Dee.
After the show I saw Steve Dee waiting outside for a cab. I had the phone number to the taxi company in my phone, so I gave it to him so he could call and get a ride to his hotel.
A couple of months later I'm on Myspace and I find D.J. Steve Dee's page, so I add him as a friend. Later that day I see I have a private message from him. He was thanking me for giving him the taxi's phone number. I thought that was really cool that he remembered that.
D.J. Steve Dee signed the front cover of the Scratch DVD.
