- So, she kept on telling me how Dave Murray [1] kept on making passes
- at her, how Butch Morris [2] said she was the most beautiful sight he
- had seen that day, how Steve Lacy [3] wanted to spend the night with
- her. And all the while, I kept on saying "So you met Dave Murray?
- Wow... So you met Steve Lacy? Wow... So you met Butch Morris? Wow..."
- I was awed and jealous. And I kept on saying "Stop it. I don't wanna
- hear anymore. I said stop it. Stop it!!" The sad part is, all that
- made me angry is that I was jealous because she got to know all those
- wonderful people, and little else.
-
- And all I got to meet was Branford Marsalis [4], Kenny Kirkland [5],
- Bob Hurst [6] and Jeff Watts [7]. And nobody famous made passes at me.
-
- And William Gibson [8] and Bruce Sterling [9] too. But that's another
- story, and whenever I want to impress someone by saying "I met WG and
- he took my address and all," all they end up saying is "who the hell
- is WG?"
