Ted Kennedy (when I was 9 - before the President was shot! We went to Mass in Hyannis!) I shook his hand. I also saw "The Bridge" at Chappaquiddick many years later
Cheech and Chong (after a show at the Cape Cod Coliseum, my brother & I - in our early teens and they weren't doing drugs - but had sandwiches and sodas, and they shared with us! Both very sweet)
As a waitress along the NY State Thruway I waited on this people:
- The Sir Douglas Quintet (all sat in a booth. But one of my girlfriends actually waited on Pink Floyd at the neighboring rest stop!)
- Euel Gibbons (and he ordered a very unhealthy thick milkshake)
- Louis Lefkowitz (NYS Attorney General for a gazillion years)
- Gene Shalit (film critic - at the Take Out counter)
- I THINK I may have waited on Elizabeth Taylor. I've NEVER seen eyes the color of hers - she had a big scarf wrapped around her head - look JUST like her and was very reserved - with 3 men in dark suits. They ate, she just had coffee. I was too shy to ask, but everyone else said it was definitely her.
Justin Hayward and John Lodge of the Moody Blues (both really lovely people - no "attitude")
John Rutter (considered the greatest living choral composer)
Chanticleer - the INCREDIBLE men's choir out of San Francisco
Most of the cast of the Orange County Choppers - well, I live right where they are, and my supervisor knew the Tuetels growing up (Mikey goes to her church).
