    Keanu is a real man's man. Dude is just cool. Buys a motorcycle company so he can ride a bike with a design he wants. Grows a beard, wears that beard in all his movies. Long hair, don't care. Wants to start a band, starts one and Fender eventually sponsors them. Dude just loves everything we love and is happy to share it.

The opportunity is worthwhile,I have always imagined how it would feel to meet him. He exceeded my expectations ,we talked about a lot of things, and he often laughed heartily before answering most of my questions. He mentioned that he changed his hair because he's preparing to film Constantine 2.

      He bought a sandwich from me in Vermont once. Came in with his motorcycle helmet on but when he placed his order I knew that voice and said "Keanu?" He laughed and took off the helmet and we talked while I made the sandwich. Just as I was done a tour bus pulled up out front and he got a panicked look. I pointed to the back door and he grinned, threw me a $10 for a $5 sandwich and skedaddled out the back. Sigh, it was a mighty fine moment.

      Thats really rare for an American star on his level of fame. Happens in Europe though. His humility and humanity always set him apart. Nice to hear he still feels safe out and about and being as spontaneous as he feels like in the moment. Very few actually do, for very real reasons.
      I'd never dream of bugging someone like this for autographs or attention. That's a huge deterrent for moving freely in public. I have aquaintances that bought homes here in rural Europe for the singular reason of being able to go grocery shopping with their family and do normal stuff without being bugged by people (or even recognized alot of the time). Once yoy get how limiting that feeling is, you understand that kind of fame has huge set backs although it's integral to doing well in the performing arts.
      You have to be very level headed to not loose touch with yourself and start evolving solely within a weird and unhealthy bubble of "superstars".
      The thing about Keanu is his was always really level headed, and not driven by other peoples ideals or ambitions, but his own passions and interests. He also somehow managed to handle the angst of existance alot better than most, though he's been more challenged. He didn't lose sight of himself and join a cult (not naming here) or reach for religious dogma to deal with the blows. It takes a certain type of inner stregnth and humility to remain anchored in who you always were, in his scenario. It's a gift, but also something I assume he's worked really hard on. Huge respect for that.
      I can see why music suits him. He's more of a musician type of personality and the typical actor.
      And I disagree with the "dudes dude" comment. I think he's entirely disinterested in the alpha/beta binary view of people, genders and self. But if he's a rolemodel for men, that's very positive.

      In the first matrix and Constantine, one actor plays under the name Keanu Reeves, and in John Wick, under the same name, Keanu Reeves is played by another actor, he is his understudy both in the movies and in real life for almost 30 years (just like Tom Cruise's understudies) . They've been bullying their fans like this for 25 years. In the last matrix, they both played under the same name Keanu Reeves in different episodes. Programmers, run this through a special face recognition program and see for yourself.

    The fact that this dude names Hooky, Joy Division and The Cure as some of his bass influences, have elevated my respect and admiration for him. Those are some of my early influences as a bass player myself, as well as many other bands in the Post Punk, Goth, New Wave, Coldwave, Darkwave, Synthwave and Shoegaze genres. Not to mention that the guy is not only super cool but, a genuinely nice and kindhearted soul. I wish I could meet him someday. It would be cool to discuss bands, bass, bikes and more over a cup of coffee and breakfast on a cold, rainy morning...

      Totally. And the great thing about most of those artists is that new bass players can play along pretty quickly. Hooky was just learning to play bass himself during Joy Division so the parts aren’t complicated. Newbie bass players trying to follow in the footsteps of somebody like Geddy Lee, on the other hand, can’t get anywhere close to playing Geddy’s parts. (I speak from experience!)

      I'm starting bass and have similar tastes/influences! Saw Keanu at that same guitar center in Hollywood! I regret not talking to him more and taking a picture :( Asked him if he was there to get his bass fixed (he was placing his bass back in the case) and he said just nodded and said yeah, but I noticed his face got kinda red so I figured he was shy or maybe wanted to stay low-key. I ended up being too shy myself and didn't bother him for a picture. I should've just asked :'(

    I'm glad Keanu is still doing stuff with his band Dogstar - I went to see them when I was at Glastonbury in 1993 but a huge part of the audience just booed before they even came on. I asked the girl in front of me what was going on and had they said something awful but she said "no, he's just using his fame to get a place at Glastonbury". I replied that he was probably asked to come and play (more than likely by a young Emily Eavis begging her Dad to get to him there so she could meet him) and that didn't they want to hear what they're like at least and she looked confused and turned away from me. I was also doubly pissed off with the crowd as it took me ages to fight my way to that stage through the sea of people and poor Keanu and his band just had to come out and get abuse and then they left the stage.
    The lowest point of Glastonbury '93 for sure and if they come to the UK again I will try and see them.
