Paul Hester, formerly of Crowded House, post-show, April 1, 1994. Photo by Jim Wilson. After the previous picture, a fan introduced herself as Paul's #1 fan, so when I got a chance to talk to him, Jim introduced me as his #2 fan. I was tempted to ask if there was a banana in his pocket or if he was happy to see me, but since I went into my usual daze, I was barely able to utter a word. He was very sweet.
