    Olsen Twins had an entire row next to me across the aisle and Danny Masterson (Hyde from "That 70's Show") was sitting behind me at East Rutherford in 2006. And various Philly athletes over the years (Randy Wolf, Mike Lieberthal, AJ Feeley, David Bell)


    Hung out with Masterson at the aftershow party in East Rutherford....quiet guy.
    Sat next to Pete Sampras at Jones Beach in 2000
    Tim Robbins has been at countless PJ/EV solo shows - I escorted him to the proper door at NJPAC in Newark last year

    Chris Daughtry was at one of the MSG shows.
    Jim Dowd (NJ Devils) was at the East Rutherford show in 2006 (Super nice guy!!)

    Can't remember the others I've seen/bumped into at shows.

    Nice. I saw coldpaly this summer and was pleasantly surprised with what a great show it was.
  • Ed Solo Tour - 6/15/09 - Baltimore 2

    My friend and I sat in box seats with Chris McCandless's sister, Carine, and her family... totally random coincidence; didn't realize it until he mentioned her during the show...
  • that loser Tim Robbins came on stage and ruined 2 nights of LA back in 2006-

    Aren't the Olsen twins fans and haven't they been spotted at MSG?

    or did I randomly dream that? :?

    they were definitely at MSG last year. I had friends who were sitting right near them. They had a handful of setlists and I guess got drunk and forgot them. My friend grabbed them and gave me one.

    Irving plaza 06 I saw Tim Robbins, Sarandon, and Scott Ian from Anthrax.

    I was in the same seats at MSG 2 that Sarandon and Robbins were in Night 1...saw the Olsen twins both nights as well. Eddie's pregnant gf and daughter were with Olsens in front of us at Night 2...have pics on my phone to prove it. Got setlist for Night 2 from Mary Kate's friend and drank a beer with Ashley's bodyguard who was off-duty on Night 2 (we rocked out during Black Diamond...im 6'9" 220lbs and this guy could've killed me with a roundhouse kick to the head)

    nice.

    sat in front of (and gushed to) cameron crowe as well as patrick warburton last year at ed's solo LA1. also saw phil jackson there.

    Tom Brady and Gisele Bunchen were there too. I think that Jill was sitting with them... I know she was out in the audience.
    The entire band of Incubus sat behind my friend.
    Some basketball players whose names I forgot.
    I think there were more too...

    Walking out the side door and seeing all the paparazzi at that show was so surreal..

    We need to all get those little circle stickers they sell at office supply stores, write our usernames on them and put them on our shirts. For all I know I could be sitting right next to one of you and wouldn't know it. :D

    my husband would be embarrassed to sit with me! As for traveler, I recognized him, he used to have his pic as his avatar. Catwoman and I arranged to meet.

    did you see him there?? Because I remember reading an article about how he was a big fan and was looking forward to seeing them, but one of the games were rained out and they had a doubleheader that day causing him to miss the show.

    I remember a board member said in one of the concert review threads that wright was a few rows infront of him.
