I felt it fit this thread.
hee... you know, I wouldn't be embarrassed if I said that to a rock star.
because 1) they probably hear it all the time, and
2) My friends and I say that to each other all the time, so it doens't bother me.
that being said, I would never say that to a rock star.... usually I'm near speechless when I meet people like that.
i am infact happy to see you.
lol
i thought u were gay..
I had a terribly awkward encounter with the lead singer of Mxpx and all i could get out was "can I get a picture with you?" No I love your band or "good set" or anything like that, just can I get a picture...being speechless is embarrassing and to this day I kick myself for that stupidity.
the only person i seem to be cool with though is tim. can talk with him for ages. what a sweetheart.
...but it is ALWAYS awkward around dan! ever since he found out about my crush on him like 4 years ago, we just cant seem to hold a convo without it being...uncomfortable, but in a totally cute giggly way haha. plus, HE makes it awkward too!
i still have flashbacks of this one totally random moment back in February 2004: After a show in NJ, my friend Megan (singer/guitarist of Le Superteam, our now defunct OK Go cover band) and me (drummer) are standing there talking amongst ourselves. I sensed someone looking at me (cause i'm creepy like that) so I look around and over across the room I see Dan & Paul (drummer of Spiraling) talking together and looking in my direction. Finally, Dan walks over and the first thing he says is "Tanya, your body is amazing..." then he pauses to TOTALLY check me out, up and down. i'm DYING inside then he continues "...but you need to drink some protein shakes." I'm just like "I KNOW! I'm definitely the scrawniest drummer around! i mean, look at this!!" and i demonstrate by flailing my skinny arms around. He takes my left arm, grabs my wrist, and starts playing with it! He's like "no..no...." and just keeps gently flipping my wrist back and forth to make my fingers dangle. "...nice..." I'm just completely mesmerized at this point and watching him play with my hand. Megan missed what he was saying and turned around to see him playing with my wrist and me just staring as if it was the most incredible thing ever! haha! it must've looked weird. Meg starts flicking her wrist around and is like *pointing to her wrist* "what's this??" and then Dan just stopped. GGGRRR! THANKS MEG!!! then it just got really awkward and silent so we finally asked for pictures with him. HAHA.
anyway, thats just one of the countless awkward moments i've experienced. this thread totally makes me want to go back and reread the reviews of shows i used to write and relive all of the awkwardness in its full glory! hahaha

That's all I was able to say to everyone in Ok Go the last show I went to. Well, I said thanks afterward too. I'm just painfully shy and have a hard enough time talking to my peers let alone members of bands that I'm obsessed with.
me too.
I went to a Tally Hall show and I didn't even say anything to the bassist! I juststood there while he signed my friends' pants and gave her a hug...gah. I felt so dumb.
I did talk to the drummer, though. he was really really nice.

Was this at the show where Tally Hall opened for Ok Go at, I think it was, Paradise Rock Club? Haha, I noticed you are from MA, so just wondering. I was at that show, and Tally Hall was completely and utterly awesome!! Though I too just stood by as my friend got their autograph...
It wasn't that awkward.
for me.
sadly, no... I couldn't go to that as it was 18+,
but this was at the Tally Hall/Puffy AmiYumi show in July.
I haven't seen Ok Go yet, but I probably won't say anything to them, either. I'm too awkward.
....
Someone said just don't say anything you wouldn't say to a stranger, the problem is I will say anything to a stranger. I pride myself on my ability to humiliate myself in front of complete strangers, its just how I roll.
I laughed so loud that the girl in the dorm next door to mine came over and told me I was nuts...and loud.
I just didn't think an "LOL" would suffice.
I just realized I said something really embarassing to Nate of The Lashes:
"Yeah, I had to gain a lot of weight for the part, I'm not really this fat."
Although I wasn't lying, I don't know why I said it.
Me: Hey Jack & Sean, where's Colin and John-Angus?
Jack: Oh they're doing the interview.
Sean: Oh, the better 2 of the band isn't here. Just disregard the other half of the band..
Mel: oh no don't worry you guys rock too.
That was fairly awkward..I just really wanted Colin and John's autograph.
