Embarassing fanmail
http://community.livejournal.com/ohnotheydidnt/11467678.html
Seeing that post makes me sad I never sent a fan letter to anyone I loved. I always figured it wouldn't get to them, or they'd be too busy, or wouldn't care or something. Now I really wish I had. The Boy George one is so sweet. I'd love to get a personalized care package from him.
But I think the Iggy Pop one wins at life:
"I was a pretty strange kid, and at the age of 15 had a HUGE crush on Iggy Pop. I wrote him a ridiculous letter about how great his music was and how I wanted to tour with him! A few months later I received a HANDWRITTEN LETTER on three pages of hotel stationery back from him. It's been 20 years, and it's still my prized possession!"
Guh. I would shit so many bricks if Iggy Pop sent me a letter. I would never be the same(in a good way). I'd walk around dazed from happiness for the rest of my life.
So, any of you ever send a fan letter? I want to know your dirty secrets!
