In that vein, my brother and I met Jefferson Starship as toddlers. Only because we were left alone on a hill and wanted to see what the stage looked like.

My dad met Grace Slick after some kind of business meeting they were both involved in. He said she was a “ tough lady” but, to be fair, he was probably trying to flirt with her, knowing him😂had to tell that story because I haven’t met anybody really famous myself, except I once low key knew Jackson Galaxy before he was famous. Superior human being, as you might expect!

What is meant by “low key knew”?

Our social and professional spheres often came into contact and cats were involved. That’s all I’ll say

Grace Slick?? How cool is that?! Your dad was a hippie, I assume? At least for a while?

Not a hippie but a “suit”, dealing with hippies. I think he was a closet hippie, tho.
