What are Neil and Chris like?

#1 Post by Posh Boy »

I'm so curious, has anyone of you ever met Neil and/or Chris and what were they like in real life? Any tips on how to meet them :lol: ?

Neil, polite and honest. Chris, jovial. In my experience.

Chris has been joking around the few times I've met them, too.
Woof.

Ive always thought that in real life they are probably more like the opposite than what they seem to be in the public eye, ie Chris more friendly and outgoing and Neil more moody and impatient.
Met them like most people would have at a record singning. As a fan in those circumstances it is impossible to judge them. They always come across as decent people though which is nice. Unlike some pop stars of today.

Neil seems like he's a great conversationalist and even in a minute's time, can capture your attention. Very charismatic. Chris seems like he's just waiting for an excuse to burst out laughing. Seems like a fun loving guy. They're both great in my opinion.

Neil is always nice and a gentleman and aproachable.

Chris can be snoty and will avoid fans sometimes, he can be really pissy.

When I had him sign the Morales remix CD of So Hard, his asked himself out loud "What's this?!" Flipping it over and looking at the cover he said, "Oh yes!" I found this amusing considering it contains his supposedly favourite remix of a PSB song.

Neil - very approachable, polite, interesting and interested. A genuine nice bloke.

Chris - only met him very very briefly and he was a little catty.

I met Chris once walking down Oxford Street and he was very friendly. He stood and chatted for quite a while.

You see, what makes PSB so special to me, is not just their music. Because I’ve been a fan for 20 years they have become almost as familiar as family. Perhaps that’s a strange thing to say, but I more or less grew up with them: posters on the wall, music, video’s, interviews. etc. It’s like I know them, but yet I don’t. I’ve seen them at concerts of course, but have never met them. And although interviews give you an insight into what they are like, really, I guess you never actually know whether that too is an ‘image’. Until you meet them. So that’s why I am interested in your experiences.

They´re hot and very nice. I´ve met them twice. Now I wanna meet them asap. :D
Interviewer:
-What would you tell someone about yourself if you wanted to impress them?

Chris:
-I´ve got a 12-inch plonker.

Neil is typical English man.
Chris is changing, he would smile and anger.
I saw how he laughed and I saw when he was tired.
There are two different people. Also I noticed that Neil controls Chris and make him do what he wants. It seems Neil is a boss.
