What a coincidence, tikipedia. My next band is gonna be named "Lost in Luxemburg"

I listed my celebrity sightings somewhere in the middle of this thread. But I'm most envious of my Mom's brushes with fame.

Back when I was just a wee lad, my mother waitressed at the coffee shop in May Co's art-deco flagship of a department store on Wilshire Blvd. (Long closed and now part of the galleries for the Los Angeles County Museum of Art). One of her regular lunchtime parties was the entire cast of "Lost In Space" who would come in at least once a week during filming. She became fairly good friends with them and would get the latest scoop on whatever episode they were filming. I think she still owns a few silver dollars that Jonathan Harris gave her as tips.
