Wow, that's too bad. I had an encounter w/ Willis in Chicago 6 or 7 years ago. I didn't know who he was at the time. I thought he was just some huge crazy guy that made a habit out of F-ing w/ the patrons of the club I was in. Everyone seemed to know him and tolerated his antics for the most part. When I got back to Portland some of my friends were all into this guy named Wesley Willis. They were constantly listening to his CD's and talking all about him. All of the sudden I put 2 and 2 together, remembering this big scary crazy guy who everyone called Wesley in Chicago. I looked at the picture on the CD.... It was him. Jeez, I guess I shoulda put this in the meeting someone famous thead. Is/was Wesley Willis famous ? I don't know, but he was definitely something.
