I ran into Kev Dawg a couple of times over the weekend with the RDP events. I cracked a joke once and said "Ryan" referring to Ryan Friedlinghaus, but he didn't get it, he corrected me lol. I enjoy his show, the team at Kindig it do some really nice work.

...Never met her...but it is entirely possible I have been around her???...I would ask somebody from my days around The Canned Heat...But my friends wife is out of town and he is probably drunk by now???...
...You are right about as her voice...incredible...Many chicks have stepped in to sing her part with The Stones on Gimmee Shelter...But I don’t recall anyone even coming close???...

...Called my friend...got lucky he wasn’t drunk...He doesn’t remember us being around her...At first he didn’t remember who she was...Had to remind him...You are pretty correct about nobody knowing her name...
...I actually used to be able to hit that high note and sing along with her on the record...Well that ain’t ever gonna happen again...lol...

Thanks.
The story about the night she laid down that track is legendary.
Middle of the night, in a robe and scarf over her hair rollers. Her agent woke her up in the middle of the night, had never met the band, she was pregnant...and history was made.
No one has ever duplicated it, as you correctly point out! Gaga tried, Fergie gave it a good shot.
When her voice breaks on the third repeat of “rape murder” you can hear Mick whooping in the booth.
They left it in and the rest is history.

Sadly, she miscarried after the session.
But she is such a hoot in interviews when she talks about it I wondered if you had ever been around her.

...I would love to say that Grace Potter did a great job at it but that’s just because I really like Grace Potter...So???...

We know a former famous pitcher with the Cards (a neighbor) that has a Shockwave that checks in weekly.
Has great boating stories I'd like to post but he and his wife like to be stealth status anonymous. A hell of a mechanic BTW.
We go out for drinks or dinner and he's recognized and people won't leave him alone, so I get it. The drunks have to repeat every play of every game he played. Got to meet Hank Aaron his fishing buddy BTW.

If you see Kurt Russell at the boat show you'll see the drunks can be pretty obnoxious to him and he gets no peace to shop and talk with the industry guys.
Many members come in to RDP for more than the forum, some don't read the forum at all.

Did a KalCan dog food commercial with Lorne Green. Awesome man! Bob Hope...awesome man! Danny Kaye....dick head. Tom Sellick...awesome..we had the same agent. Super model chick when I was 7...very impressionable and a camel toe fan ever since. Met lots of celebs over 18 years in the business but nobody was funner to bass fish and hang out with more than Cypress Hill. Edit...Alpo is where I worked with Mr Greene.

I've been in a few movies, here's a screen shot from the Disney movie "Right on Track" - it's about Erica Enders - NHRA Pro Stock Racer when she ran Jr Dragsters
Was in a few scenes as different people, "Disgruntled Dad, Fan, Track Worker, Pit Crew, etc. lol


Beverly Mitchell played Erica and Brie Larson played her little sister

Crazy how huge Brie Larson's career has gotten in the last couple years!

What's his screen name and is he a jet boater?

It's the questions like this that make people not want to say anything Grads.. LOL

Yes there are some TV personalities on here.
There are even some peeps that have been in some movies. I can think of one member that posts on the regular that was in Pulp Fiction and in Reservoir Dogs. That said he'd prefer to keep that side of it quiet, or he would've brought it up years ago.

In short you'd be surprised who ya might see wearing an RDP hat off camera, or even sometimes on camera. There's a pretty big fishing show out there and some of the crew on the boat are always wearing rdp hats etc..

To drill down to your question though for who is a regular poster that is the most famous, I'd have to guess Mike Finnegan.#18
