    Aside from the music, I love how his projects tend to be a complete package with costumes, colour schemes and everything all working together. He's a super talented artist in so many different forms.

    Was lucky enough to see RNDM at a small club in Vancouver and was up against the stage on Jeff's side the full show. He had his RNDM balaclava on a speaker side stage. Near the end of the show I watched a dude sprint up and grab it and then run into the bathroom. A roadie ran in after him and did a fully body search but the guy didn't have it. He must have had a buddy in there that he handed it off to. After the show Jeff was signing my show poster and I told him what happened. He was pretty annoyed and said that was his last one. Was an incredible show and I got the whole band to sign the poster.

    I met jeff in an airport and nobody else was there apart from my friend simon and jeffs body guard.  We spoke for 10 mins  like i knew him for ever.
    Then we parted. It was my birthday i totally forgot .

    He didnt seem grateful  to meet me.
    I felt like i was talking to an old friend tbh. Thats a sign of how relaxed jeff was
     End of tour  off home .
    That  helped the  convo along. I hear jeff can be a bit dismissive.  So got lucky.

    I was at that show too! I remember hearing about that. 
    After the show, I gave Jeff a hat I'd knit for him, so at least he has something to wear home. :)
