I have seen Steve Martin live twice - the Steve Martin Mull Review when I was in college and the Steve Martin Short Review before leaving Philly, but there was no interaction. As to the others:
1) I sat next to Haig on flights from CHS>ATL and ATL>TPA. SOB wouldn't even acknowledge a "hello".
2) My dad was stationed at the US Embassy in London for a few years (ages 10-12 for me), and his boss was Najeeb Halaby, later president of PanAm. His daughter, Lisa, and I played together when there were cocktail parties. She later became Noor. Damn I wish I had kept in contact with her...
3) Also while in England, when the Beatles were just becoming big, through a multi-person connection (boyfriend of the sister of a school friend), I got to go to a publicity luncheon with them and about 20 other kids - we were the age group they were seeking at the time.
5) When I was a student at Ga Tech, Jimmy Carter was the governor, and he an I carried on a mail conversation over energy conservation for a short while after he did a TV speech telling us to conserve, and I pointed out that in Buckhead, where the Governor's Mansion was, there were gas lights operating right under mercury street lamps - so didn't he think that was a bit of a waste?

Your guess of Cleavon Little is wrong. Blazing Saddles Sherrif. I will share later how I knew him.

I am guessing Steve Vai.\ However, we are of a different era Subrosa.
I dont recognize any of your names. I grew up during the Woodstock era, sadly did not go and now I only remember Classic Rock bands, Have seen Lionell Richie and Tina Turner in1980s LA Concert, Leonard Cohen, At UCLA 1968, when I only knew his song Suzanne, and The Eagles, When Hell freezes over Concert in the 1990s. And at UCLA in the 60s Segovia....that really impressed me when I finally figured out who he was/ Love Spanish Guitar.
