No "met your favourite DJ"-story here, but fits in nonetheless, I think. Actually, I don't even know, if I have a favourite DJ. Probably not.
Well, anyways, a couple month back I went to Berlin by train to attend a birthday party of friends. And turns out, I was sitting in someone elses reserved spot. Well, I said "no problem, I'll scooch over" and then spotted the vinyl flight case. We got talking about electronic music and DJing and stuff, and when he had to get off the train, I asked him, what his DJ name was. Well, turns out, he was a fairly well known German DJ (no namedropping here, I think it's pointless). A month or so later he played in my city, the party was actually quite shitty (but whatthehell, that's what guestlist spots are for), so I brought him to a proper party afterwards. Met him once or twice since then and would almost consider him a mate now (and he probably would too).
There's also another funny story, about another (at least regionally) well known DJ I met on the train. But let's keep that one for another time
