This is how I would like to meet any of the guys. Not that I would turn down a meet and greet, but I think it would be better and more natural to just bump into them somewhere unexpected.

    Met Jeff at a Mu'tet show, guy was fuckin awesome. Hung out, talked about the different groups he had played in, so on and so forth. Just a genuine, honest guy.

    Seriously though, what's the point of meeting them? When I was younger I was always worried I'd embarrass myself, and now that I'm older I'm worried I'll end up disliking them.

We ended up stage left, outside the pit but not on stage level and watched the rest of the show from there, which was really cool. After the main set, we followed my boss backstage and listened to the encore as we walked through the halls. I was pretty drunk at this point, I didn't realize the opportunity I was about to have. Anyway after the encore ended we were still in that hallway and security told us to move to the side. We did and the whole band walked past us one by one, and once the last band member passed (must have been Carter) they let us back into that hallway and we continued toward the greenroom. My boss got ahead of me and then a member of Dave's crew (who I have exchanged emails with but he didn't know who I was visually) saw me and asked who I was and what I was doing there. With the alcohol on board, I really wasn't able to explain myself and he got rather annoyed with me and just said "You have to leave" and pushed me. I got pissed and next thing I know I'm about to take a swing at the guy and my boss steps between us and says, maybe best you go home...

    My boss ended up spending the next 4 hours with the whole band... Has pictures and everything. I've never had another opportunity, probably never will. Alcohol's a heck of a drug.

    Dave: After Tulsa last year
    Tim: After TR3 Chicago this year
    Jeff: Walking around Detroit in 2012
    Stefan: Walking around Detroit in 2012
    Boyd: Went to his Chicago screening of Faces in the Mirror

    Was at a bar with Rashawn once but the guy had 3 ladies hanging on him so I let him be, drink his beer, and eat his nachos. He actually ditched one of them when she went to the bathroom and left with the other two

    Would love to meet Carter someday, he is by far the most difficult. Might have to resort to staying at the bands hotel if I want to meet him, but I think thats kinda creepy.

    Carter I was told is extremely private at shows. If you meet him outside a venue or anywhere though, he's one of the nicest people ever. Dude just likes his privacy I guess lol

    Yeah it was really shocking to see him out unexpectingly, and we were walking past each other in a cross walk in the middle of street when I asked to take a picture. He kind of laughed and looked around and asked if we could cross the street first. Haha pretty cool guy.

    Not a meeting, but this happened during the Chicago Caravan.

    After the Mu'tet was done, I was able to get to the front of the crowd that was just thining out. Jeff was packing up onstage, and I shouted, "Jeff, you're awesome!" He turned right at me, smiled, and said, "why, thank you very much."

    Met Dave on the streets of Boston in 2009. Saw him walking off of Willie Nelson's tour bus and stopped to say hi. It was brief but he smiled, was polite and we exchanged a few words. Then took a picture together. Pretty happy with it because I wasn't even going to go to the show that night but bought myself a single seat last minute ticket as a slightly belated birthday present to myself. Loved the show and will always remember meeting Dave!

    I met Rashawn, Carter and Dave in Atlantic City during the caravan. It was all pretty cool. We were staying in the same hotel and would see them in the lobby. Carter was by far the coolest and when he asked where we were from and I said Scranton he remembered playing there and staying in the old train station that is now a Raddison. It was pretty cool getting to say hello to them.

    Re: Which band members have you met?

    Met Jeff in downtown Charlotte on the day of a show back in 2012. He walks past us and I tell our group "Hey, that's Coffin". My girlfriend at the time naturally shuts me down, says there's no way that could be him.

    Yep, like there's a ton of folks walking around with that glorious chin beard.

    So they're stopped at a crosswalk and a buddy of mine can tell I'm serious. We catch up to him and chat it up for awhile. Generic stuff, just telling him thanks for the music and that we're big DMB fans and Coffin says "Yeah, you know, I'm really just a huge fan of the band too." I loved that humility and subtle nod to the original five. Jeff seems like an all around class act. Glad to have met him!
