His final summer before 60

And he looks like 40-year-olds did not so long ago!

Point Break is one of my fave movies - remember to thank Kathryn Bigelow in your mind (or in person if you meet her!) for seeing an action movie star in Keanu. She had to push for him and the studio eventually relented, but just imagine if Matthew Broderick had been Johnny Utah! Ick

Met Keanu Reeves (and his lovely band mates)

Dogstar VIP! I had a bit of a.. I’m trying to talk but it appears my mouth may have been super glued shut moment, but Keanu was friendly as hell, signed my lanyard and my CD, was so funny and just genuinely nice to chat to. He said I was a baby because i’m 21, cheers Mr Reeves, everyone in the group agreed with you! So in the spirit of a wonderful night, I shall share a lovely pic of him, enjoying himself with his band mates (who btw! Lovely fellas. Cute accents!)

The time I met Keanu and he helped a blind man

Keanu on the set of Henry's Crime in Tarrytown, NY

I didn't know about this subreddit until a few minutes ago when my boyfriend told me about it. I think I am within the rules posting here. If not please disregard/delete.

But I do have a cool, very short "story" about meeting Keanu.

He is every bit as nice as people say he is, first of all.

We discussed pretty typical things like the movie he was working on, and my then-hometown of Tarrytown. At the time I was working as an interviewer and reviewer for my own metal music webzine, and I told him a little about that too and he said that was awesome.

We talked for around five minutes...

Then we both noticed the "local" blind man coming up the street (a man whose name I have unfortunately forgotten over the years, but I had interacted with many times myself, who was himself a great dude) and he goes, "OPE, BLIND GUY COMING!" and rushed off to help him cross the intersection in true Keanu fashion. It was a cold and snowy day, and the two began chatting about something as they crossed the street. I'm sure the blind man never found out who helped him cross the street.

That was the last I saw him. I decided to take my little moment and go on home to tell my friends and family about what had just happened.

A very short but unforgettable meeting.

Extremely excited about the fact that Dogstar European Tour is approaching

The Dogstar European Tour is approaching and I cannot wait! I managed to get VIP Tickets for One of the Italian dates and yes, they were expensive, but I've been through some tough stuff lately and decided to make this gift to myself. As I understand, the VIP ticket includes a meet&greet with the band and I am already hyper-ventilating lol

My boyfriend Is tagging along with me, poor guy will have to endure me being in total fangirling mode for the whole evening hahah (he Is a total fan as well, in truth)

Will anyone of you attend One of the European dates? Are you as excited as I am? :D

OMG, I'm so happy this sub exists!

I've been marveling for a long time about the many cool things that Keanu Reeves has said and done over the years. (He's one of a select few on my list of best celebs, along with Dolly Parton et al.) I found y'all cuz I wanted to ask for some great Keanu stories somewhere, but this is perfect! All I need to do is call up this sub's top all-time posts and soak it in. Thank you for being here!
