Who: James Badge Dale
Where: NE corner of 52nd and Lex, New York, NY 10154
When: Sunday February 6th, 2010, 9am
Famous for: Playing one of the lead characters in The Pacific and Rubicon
Wearing: A no nonsense dark grey wollen jacket similar to what I wear to work during winter. The jacket was just the right length, halfway between the knees and the groin, unlike Jugās undertaker jacket that goes below the knees.
Other notes: I was popping into the office to collect some mail when I spotted James, as it was early in the morning I didnāt have my camera at the ready to get a sneaky picture as I have been trying to do with my spots of late. James was walking slowly northwards on Lexington Avenue, looking reasonably grumpy and not quite sure where he wanted to go.
If you Go back to page one youāll find that doesnāt disallow them. If they were on stage Ibwould agree. But for example if you saw Brendan O Connor on the bus on the way to work that would be a spot.
Who: Alistair Campbell
Famous for: being Director of Communications and Strategy to Tony Blair and had a major influence in deciding on behalf of the UK that Iraq supposedly had WMDās.
Where: OāNeills Pub, Suffolk Street.
When: last night Saturday at 6.30pm approx.
Other notes: Alistair seemed in quite jovial mood and looked to be in the presence of one other person around the same age as himself. He was dressed in your typical smart casual gear and a number of people in the pub clearly recognised him.
Did you engage him in conversation Phil? He seems like an alright sort. Iām slightly fascinated with him actually. Big Carlisle fan. Doesnāt like Adam Boulton much.
I really wish I did. I was only passing through the section of OāNeills he was in and he seemed to be in deep conversation with the guy he was with. I didnāt have the guts to go up and interupt. Would have loved to have heard his opinionās on the Malcolm Tucker charatcter from In the Loop!
Who : David Gray
Where : TP Smiths pub on Jervis Street
When : Saturday evening between 5 and 8pm
Famous for : Singing, songwriting, having one of the biggest selling albums ever in this country
Wearing : Brown shoes, dark jeans, brown t-shirt, beige/cream coloured sports type jacket
AOB : He was there watching the Wolves v Utd match. Had a bit of grub and a few pints of stout with one of his (I assume) friends while cheering on Utd. He took the defeat well considering he is from greater Manchester, better than some of the Irish tards who support Utd. Seemed a convivial sort and posed happily with several people for photos
Donāt mind Bandage, Iām willing to bet that he, as well as an awful lot of lads here, had or still has a copy of White Ladder, but turned against Gray when people started muttering about him being āmiserableā and now claim to have ānever liked the miserable cuntā.
Iād say Pat Nail wouldnāt be averse to belting out Babylon every now and then.
In other celeb spotting news, Danny DeVito is currently in Dublin, so if you happen to spot someone who looks remarkably like the Taxi star, it is indeed him.
:lol:
