15. She was HOT!

By the way. This was in 1991 or so. I was 22. She had to have been in her late 30s. I was introduced to her by REM's then-manager, Jefferson Holt. He just introduced her as "Kate." It took me about five minutes of conversation to realize that she wasn't just any Kate...

It was on the news, and I was floored.

I just saw an old SNL where they performed "Dance This Mess Around". What a fun band!
