As a rock n roll fan, I realize somethings that I've experienced in the last 20 years have been an absolute honor that not many people get to experience. I want to share a few with you guys!

1) Partying with @MfnH (Machine Head) & brazillian thrashers Sepultura in 2005 in Dubai

2) Meeting Iron Maiden at a press conference while @JoeAkkawi explained to Nicko Mcbrain that his name meant sex in Arabic (made Nicko's day)

3) Witnessing 2 members of Megadeth (not Mustaine) get pissed at an after party after a DJ played Seek and Destroy by Metallica

4) Hanging out with Michael Akerfeldt of Opeth and telling him he's the David Gilmour, where he blushed and said no way thats too kind of me

5) Meeting Lemmy backstage at Desert Rock .. he said nothing to me, that was just cool

6) Meeting Arch Enemy (w/ @JoeAkkawi ) and them recognizing the website we were running at the time "You guys are from http://Phride.com ?"

7) Seeing Slash, Duff, Matt Sorum chilling in a tent backstage in Dubai looking a little pissed (Scott Weiland was missing) - he left the band a couple of weeks later

8) Meeting Jonathan Davis of Korn in Dubai airport only to turn out to be one of the kindest people in the world

9) Kirk Hammet literally helping me to propose to my wife @Dana_Adham over a phone call.

10) James Hetfield knowing my story (Basel Meets Metallica) personally before we had a conversation for 15 mins!

11) Seeing Metallica from the snakepit. James got down infront of me and I reached out to his guitar and he let me strum to 'of wolf an man' while he played the fret board. In front of 90,000 people might I add

12) Running into Mike Portnoy in Madison Square Garden after we saw Roger Waters perform The Wall

13) having a conversation with Slash last year as part of the Basel Meets show

14) Having a conversation with Doc Coyle of Bad Wolves after being a fan of 'God Forbid' for so long

15) Phill Demmel @DemmelitionMH calling me by my forum screen name when he saw me in Dubai in 2008. made my fucking year.

Thats all I got!
