Re: Anyone ever meet Coverdale?

I met Adrian Vandenberg at the Musik-Messe in Frankfurt couple years ago, I think he is taller than 2 meters ! :-) And - I kid you not - 5 minutes later I got to meet Bernie Marsden at the other side of the hall and talked to him about M3, old Whitesnake and Alaska and he was a very friendly nice guy, don't think a lot of people talk to him about Alaska. ( That was really a weird somehow funny moment back to back in such a short time-frame)
Met the whole band (minus Coverdale who went offstage into a bus to drive back to the hotel unlike all the others...) at Bang Your Head 2006 (?) and I must say, everybody was very down to earth and no attitude at all. Reb Beach, Tommy Aldrige and Doug Aldrich seem to enjoy meeting people and Uriah Duffy at the time was a fun guy.
Had planned a Meet & Greet with the two guitarists for the fans and it was denied prior to the event. When I walked to the guys themselves and said unfortunately that didn't happen, of course they never knew about it in the first place and both said they would be happy to have done it !!!
