While I was at the columbus show I asked if I could speak with him. I thought it was going to be hey great show, can I get a picture. Nope, he actually pulled out a chair and told me some stories for a good 20 minutes. I was talking to him about the photos on wrecked and we started talking about all the old covers and photos Mr.Lovell-Davis has done. Apparently some "real right wing motherfucker" died from a tangerine full of drugs in his mouth with a sock or something pulled over his head. So I guess Raymond and Stephen was inspired by that. He had Raymond laying down in a bathtub naked with an orange in his mouth. Raymond said he hadn't even seen the photos yet, so I wonder what they're for. I would've asked him, but I was pretty nervous. According to my friends the cameraman for the dvd was right in my face the whole time so maybe I'll be able to get on there, that'd be sweet

Although I didn't have an actual vocal conversation with him, I did message back and forth with him yesterday via MyCrack. It would seem that he hypothetically might want to use my profile pics with the "Be True, Be Vigilant, Behave" teeshirt for an upcoming release (he likes the visual style). I shouldn't say much more than that, especially since even he is speculating at this point, but if I have definites, I'll keep y'all posted.

i met raymond prior to a KMDFM show in SF. he was stepping out of the bus for a moment, and i asked if i could talk to him for a moment. he asked if i was doing an interview for a magazine or anything of the nature, i assured him, i was not. he said he had an appointment with a bottle of vodka, and that he only had a few moments to spare. what happened, i could not have imagined. i did the usual thing "i'm a big fan (and dork), and i really enjoy his music..." the usual. after that short display of ass kissing, it turned into 45 minutes of him and i sitting on the sidewalk just talking about the history of Pig, what was going on at the time (Genuine American Monster had been released just a short while before), and trying to find out about any videos. before my memory had slipped, i asked him to sign 1 of my cds. when i brought out all 11 Pig cds that i had, he said that he'd just sign all of them... OMFG! he even commented on see an original (Wax Trax!) pressing of 'A Poke In The Eye...' that he had not see that cd in at least 10 years... afterwards, i thanked him, shook his hand and let him get to his appointment with Mr Vodka. he was very pleasant, well spoken, and very patient with this ove zealous fan. i didnt ask him for a photo, nor did i have a camera. i was absolutely thrilled just meeting the guy, and ecstatic that i got to just sit and talk with him almost 100% uninterrupted for 45 minutes.

I've just seen KMFDM in London (& Nottingham) & whilst waiting in the pub next to the Astoria (which as we all know is the venue next to the Meanfiddler & a massive porn shop - apparently) In walks Raymond, Sacha, Lucia & the rest of KMFDM. I thought this was hilarious as no-one else in the pub knew who they were. Could I miss this opportunity to say hi ? Nope. Raymond was at the bar & so I thought it only polite to return years of PIG freedom through the CD's with a drink. Unfortunately for me, he was buying a beer for Sacha as well so I obliged, & handed over my pennies. We talked about why he wasn't singing with the band & about the new KMFDM DVD. Advised I had it & Raymond looked a 'bit of a dick'!! Who says honesty isn't the best policy. He was also genuinly suprised that I'd taken half a day off from work to see the band...what a nice guy. Until next time... Haven't seen him or PIG live for ages so this is just a little reminder of what happened when I did meet him. He was also interested in this site & where 'we' got his CD's from !!

It will always amuse me that people don't notice who he is. Then he's on stage and think ohh, yeah, thats him.

Not strictly related.....but when we went & saw KMFDM lat time, they were sat outside the venue & Steve White was sat on the stairs. People had to actually ask him to move, but didn't notice the rest of the band. I went & said hi & (sadly) they recognised me as the stalker from the other shows. It was great to see people ask Steve to move, & they didn't know who he was. Not like some pal of mine from the USA (HP) 'pretending' he was in the band...with this 'ho' all over him....yes buddy, I know you remeber !!!!!!

I was in London last weekend & guessed who I bumped into at the door of our hotel ? That's right, Raymond Watts. Fuck y'all who say him on tour last year. In actuall fact, it was a diffent Raymond Watts, as he was the bell-boy !!!! At least I'm on the same island as him (assuming he's not in Japan), the filthy Schwein !!!!!

I had the honor of meeting Mr. Watts back in 1997 on the KMFDM tour. I was only able to chat with him for a few. In our exchange he told me that he would probably never play in that town again (Columbus, OH). The show didn't have a great turn out. The second time that I met him was after another show (in all places...Columbus ) back in 2006 on the All Hamerican Pig Tour. I go to chat with him for about 45 minutes. Just basically chatted about random stuff. The best part is I got some really good pics of us that night. Now I hope and wait to see him again.

It was a picture of his half erect penis when he took it out of the codpiece. Does ANYONE have this picture? I've heard of it, I know it's been passed around!
Seriously good karma will come your way!

is this still around...ya i met raymond before and after the show in buffalo. the 2006 month long tour. man i was so lucky to get to see that..waited a long time for that.
he was a great guy. very friendly we had a beer after the show (my cousin was with us too) he talked about how he visited toronto once to see some family member of his down the line..his uncle he said but wasnt really sure..haha the dude was gay and drove with a teddy bear inside those side cart things that are attached to motorcycles.
so we had some shitty draft beer i offered him, id like to be able to have a ten times better beer other then that but i dont think there was much choice. maybe next time??? hmmm

I've never met him in person, but I did send him a picture of a... picture I drew when I still had a myspace a couple years ago, and got a personal reply from him. Made my goddamn day, man. Think I still have a screencap of it lying around somewhere, too.
