Default Famous customers

This is obviously a subject that has to be treaded lightly due to confidentiality reasons. But anyone care to share some of the famous places they've worked. Personally, I've worked in 4 of the dave Matthews band member's houses, and at the studio. Here are some pics

This is Carter's house. The most recently deceased member of DMB. 1 of 4 of his houses. He also had bought his Mother 6 homes before he deceased. At the time I took this, he had 8 expensive cars in the garage.

This is one of the members cars. I know the guy who has the hard, hard contract of starting and driving this car twice monthly while the band tours. This picture was taken the same place the band parks the tour bus when they're home.

Dan Fouts has a vacation house down the street from one of my coworkers. Haven't done any work there, but I've been down there for a barbeque. David Ogden Stiers (from M*A*S*H) lives here in Newport and is involved at some level with the local community college; I've ran into him a few times doing work on campus.

A bunch of the Carolina Panthers player's houses. I'd say 5 or 6. The former head coach for the Carolina Panthers. CEO of Harris Teeter. Executive offices of Ally Bank. Executive offices of Nascar and Nascar Media Group, which by the way are fantastic people to work for/with , the owner of Radiator Specialty (the company that makes automotive products like GUNK and Liquid Wrench...not famous but kinda cool), both John Boy and Billy. That's all I can think of.

My wife's step father wound up marrying Susan Lombardi (Vince's daughter).

That's as close as I've gotten to fame/fortune.
