Dave Gilmour

I saw this guy in a furniture shop in Portobello Rd once.

Which was cool.

He was a bit older than he is in this vid, and he was looking at furniture. I was looking at Dave Gilmour (and I wasn’t on drugs) who was looking at furniture, on account of it being a furniture shop and him being in it, and it seemed like a reasonable sort of thing to being doing - given the location etc. Which was a furniture shop. I wonder if it’s still there.

It was kindof opposite the blue door where Hugh Grant (who people keep hassling me that I look like, and I fucking don’t) lived in that Notting Hill. It was kindof trendy and ethnic etc, and I wasn’t on drugs and I can prove it.

Anyway, I wasn’t stalking him or anything - although the only reason I was in the shop as well, is because I saw him through the window… so I guess I may have kindof stalked him into the shop etc, but that was as far as it went. There was nothing weird or obsessive about it… just casually going into the same shop as the guy who did the greatest guitar solo of all time etc. To look at furniture.

Anyway. We shared a companianable silence for a few moments - although I doubt he realised I was there etc, as I was over the other side of the shop pretending to look at some rugs etc. All in all, it went very well. I’ve still got the rug.

I met Jimmy Page once as well.

  3. Yea, obviously Comfortably Numb. I know you prefer the one from Stairway to Heaven, but… I’ve never seen Jimmy Page in a furniture shop, etc so…

    Rich saw Noel Gallagher in a furniture shop once - antique shop in Islington. His missus was buying stuff and Noel was sitting there with his face in his hands.
