one for the personal 'cool moments' list :)

I stopped at a garage today to fill up with some petrol, and about a minute later a posh-ish motor pulls in. Out gets Peter Gabriel, and he looked across at me, nodded and said hello.... like I'm his mate. :ph34r:

OK, I had met him earlier in the afternoon at a press conference, but that was there (I don't count something like that for a 'cool list' as I expect to come across such people now and then thru my job), and this was out there, on the street. :)

BTW, if anyone is wondering if Peter is getting involved with any Genesis reunion plans in the near future, he said that a conversation had been had about it but that he's not going to be involved ... he didn't seem to rule out the possibility of something happening at some point tho.

(no, it wasn't me asking him that - I've little interest in Genesis).

A few years back I was working in the admin office backstage on JazzWorld and Peter Gabriel came in, wearing the most ridiculous beanie hat but you could still tell it was him.

He then asked very politely if it would be OK for him to come backstage, as he didn't have a pass for JazzWorld and told me that his name was Peter Gabriel. I said something star-struck along the lines of "we would be delighted for you to come backstage here" and off he went.

How unassuming was that! One of my favourite JazzWorld moments :)
