Ive posted my story on the old board I think.
but I think it was 2002 or 2003 and I was hanging out at the podewil where text of light should perform later that day. the podewil is a nice little museum of modern art where an exhibition were going about sound and sculptres. nice installations and everything was really interesting. ToL were fitting pretty nice in the concept. while looking around I noticed lee and one of the podewil-guys walking by. I kinda was stunned. but he disappeared quickly. after going into the audition "room" which got space for 160 people I needed to pee before ToL were beginning, I walked out and there was lee sitting on a sofa and smoking. My heart was pumping like hell and I thought that if I wouldnt talk to him in any way I would bite my ass for the rest of my life. so I lighted up a cigarette and said hi, we talked for about 10 minutes or so about soundgear. especially about ring mods (where I was really interested these days) and he told that its pretty easy to build them by yourself but that if I can afford it that a moogerfooger would be ace. afterwards I asked him if he would paint me a picture (instead of an autograph), he was joking that painting a picture would be last too long but that he could draw me one, and he also signed it. the ToL gig was awesome too. after a few weeks I bought a moogerfooger ring mod and still loving it. one of these days Ill never forget. yes it rocks meeting your "idols"
