William Shatner and Van Halen

[sadaist]

So, I was attending this kinda formal dinner / event that a friend invited me to as his +1. Anyways, they had a bunch of booths/information desks as well before the speeches & dinner began. And I see motherfucking William Shatner! Yup. Captain fucking Kirk himself! He had a booth I think he was shilling a new book or album or something. Signing autographs. But I catch him just as he is getting up to walk away to use the restroom or grab a drink or maybe just stretch his legs. Of course I stop him....


me: "Holy shit! You're William Shatner!"

C Kirk: "Well yes, yes I am"

me: "Wow man! Such an honor to meet you. Always been a huge fan....from all the television to the movies I have totally enjoyed every frame."

C Kirk: "Thank you very much. Always great to meet a genuine fan. Happy you have enjoyed my work."

me: "Totally man. It's been an awesome ride"

(So while saying the last sentence I think to myself I gotta get something to report to the Roth Army)

me: "Umm hey, you like Van Halen?"

C Kirk: "Nope"

me: "nope!? What do you mean nope? How can you NOT like Van Halen?"

C Kirk: "I'm The One. It cheesed."

(I'm thinking to myself 'cheesed'? LOL. That's a weird slang term. Probably picked it up on planet xerbiak or something. But I digress.)

me: "Are you serious? Damn man. Well have you heard their NEW album?"

C Kirk: "New album? No. Hadn't heard of it"

Me: "Aww man. You GOTTA hear it. Absolutely amazing."

C Kirk: "Tell you what, here is my email address. You contact me & get me a copy of the new album. I'll reimburse you $30 for everything flat"

me: "You got it man. I'll have you emailed before you even get home from this dinner. And it's been a great pleasure meeting you. Thanks a million"

(shakes his hand again)

C Kirk: "Thanks for being a fan. You take care. I'll keep an eye out for that email"

(I grab a pen from a nearby booth while repeating his email in my head over & over so as not forget it. The whole time now I'm kicking myself I didn't mention him banging green chicks & the likes. Always wanted to ask him about that. He'd fit right in here. And fuck! I forgot to get an autograph. I wish Spock would have been there too.)




















And then I woke up. WTF? Last time I go up to 1 1/2 vicodins right before bed.

Bastard!!!! :biggrin:

Uh, somebody needs to change the page on their calendar. It ain't April 1.

:lmao:

I swear it happened. I never remember dreams....ever. But just woke up & this one was vivid. Capt Kirk, Van Halen, I'm The One, Roth Army, green bitches? I had to share.

How long was I asleep for Christs sake?

[Nitro Express]

Last time I saw Captain Kirk he was battling Jabba the Limbaugh.

[sadaist]

Mods...you can dump this whenever. Just had to share a weird opiate induced dream I had that included the Roth Army. Fuck...you know you spend too much time here when it invades your dreams and when you meet one of your childhood heroes you think of the Roth Army first. Was one of those really vivid colorful dreams to. And I only slept about 2 1/2 hours total.

It's in Non-VH, it's (somewhat) funny, and it involves over-the-counter drugs. It stays.

Vicodin certainly ISN'T over-the-counter, but otherwise agree...:lmao:

I'll forgive myself for this blatant lack of knowledge concerning U.S. pharmaceuticals... :D

Hell, I had a dream Monday night involving VH that pretty much sucked. Somehow was in some room at a venue with Dave, and he was in a foul mood....and there were a bunch of chicks there too, and he goes "Can you pull 'em? What kind of man are ya if ya can't pull some chicks!?"

I mean, he says this with a frown on his face....then, I am in a limo with Wolfy going somewhere in L.A.....I remember nothing about what was said, or anything....just was in a limo and knew he was in there as well. Ed was around, but was incoherent.

I woke up yesterday afternoon going WTF????

[ThrillsNSpills]

William Shatner did a spoken word bit on Schenker's latest album.

That is just plain odd. Here you have one of the most recognizable voices ever heard, yet the production alters the delivery to the point it is so disguised it could be any geezer standing on a bus platform uttering it.

:lmao:

I know right? WTF is it that now VH is creeping into our dreams? So weird. I rarely dream, and when I do it's even more rare that it is anything memorable. But the VH / Shatner one was super vivid. And I can still remember it clearly. (Maybe because I typed it out fresh)

At least it's Dave VH in our dreams and not being tequila-boarded by Sammy until we buy a ticket to his casino show.

[Hardrock69]

True dat!

I would not mind having a dream where I punched Spambot in his face and told him to shut the fuck up, lol.
