In all seriousness, I'm a recovering hero worshiper and all I can say is you just get the fuck over it. You're a dude and he's a dude and you've both got jobs to do so you do it. Don't allow yourself for a second to go through some 'obligatory' compliment stage or anything. You're a fan so you've got good questions. If you're good at what you do you'll have some questions that he hasn't been asked 1000 times before.
Good luck.

What's really upsetting me is that he stole my Mom's glasses from about 1989 or so.

I remember seeing J at the Silkworm show at SXSW last year. He was just sitting off by himself, nobody paying him any mind, really.

Ask him if it's true that he and Matt Johnson beat up Damon Albarn on the Rollercoaster tour or if it's just an odd rumour.
