yep, I finally met "the man" himself last nite at opium. I headed out last nite to opium at 1 am. Was hangin' out with the usual local crew, having a little sushi, shootin' the breeze, listening to ivano gettin' warmed up for whats always a great sunday night. I said good nite to ivano and headed home about 3 am, because I had to catch a noon flight (keep in mind I live within a block or two from opium). I got home and was winding down when suddenly,.....I felt compelled to go back to opium at like 4 am (1 hour later) and I did. When I got there I went over to the DJ booth and Ivano says "I thought you went home" to me. I said yeah but something made me come back. I look and next to me and the DJ booth I sense ( I actually felt him, I just had a feeling he was gonna be there) a familiar ressemblence of the few photo's of the man published (now i've never met him before and have no idea what he really looks like). So, I look at him and look at Ivano and now i'm pointing to ivano and then to this man, back-and-forth. I say to Ivano "Is It Him". Ivano nods, I whisper to him "Are you the Man" ? He smiles and acknowledges me. Ivano tells him something about me. We chatted for a few glorious moments. Then we shook hands, he gave me a big hug and I was considering kissing his hand when he in fact kissed mine (he read my mind). I graciously returned same. Danny , Ivano, thanks for a great end to a very special evening! All my love, josh
