Rock Legend’s Cart Attacks at Whole Foods

December 18, 2006

So, last week Denise ‘D Dog and I meander down to WF (Whole Foods) for a little dinner before the show. I’m cruising the aisle (…for food) when BAM this little mini, green cart careens around the corner and plows into me. (actually it was more of a light tap, but that doesn’t really carry the dramatic effect now does it!?)

The startled driver apologizes profusely and we meet again in the express checkout lane where I get a good look at him and realize that he’s Lars Ulrich, drummer for Metallica. We have a nice chat about balsamic vinegar and I watch in amusement as the cashier, who clearly recognizes him, is visibly shaking as he rings up Lars’s pasta and exclaims “rock on” instead of “thank you” at the end of Lars’s transaction! I’m happy I wasn’t as star struck but I should have asked if he wanted to drum in a new band! doh!!

“Rock On”!
