Hello everyone;

I think at least WS2 and I can both say we are absolutely fascinated with all things Ferry

That being said, I am wondering out loud how many of us have had a personal encounter with Our Hero.

From the interviews I have seen Bryan seems like a truly nice person, and even (gasp) seems uncomfortable when people fawn all over him, I want to say even a touch shy and reserved. Bryan was kind enough to respond to me with his personal condolences on the loss of my dear David. But as for a true personal encounter, oh well, only in my dreams.

I have a few good friends here on the forum that have who would perhaps share their interesting encounters.
Hope to hear from you!

Well, I`m not sure you would regard me as a good friend, but here`s my story:

It was just before the Winter Olympics at Lillehammer, Norway, in 1994. Bryan had just released the Taxi album. He was writing autographs below an escalator in a shopping centre in Oslo. People were lining up, bringing all their old vinyls. I had a very modest item, his latest album as a musiccasette. He maybe was a bit surprised, but I told him where to put his signature, and he perfectly understood. -Just across the whole front cover. There were women there with their daughters. I remember one of them saying he was cute.

Thanks for sharing that le freak
I'm sure you still have that cassette?
Cute does not do him justice
And hope this doesn't sound too strange but I bet he smells great
He seems very very gracious when it comes to having pictures taken with him and signing autographs
I have seen so many pictures of him with fans on the internet
Would Mick Jagger be so gracious??
Think not

Yes, I still have that cassette. It`s my only issue of the Taxi album. It plays fine. The "cute" remark shows that he might make aquintances with women far below half his age, I guess.

He signed after a show in his car (2007). I just told him mamouna is my favourite album. "Oh thank you, that's very kind of you". That was it.
