When he meets Keanu he’s in the middle of a two-year run on Days of Our Lives as a police officer named Brian Scofield, a performance that will win him the Soap Opera Digest Award for Outstanding Comic Relief Role in 1992. The guy in the jersey is an actor named Robert Mailhouse. He sees a guy in a Detroit Red Wings jersey and starts talking to him about hockey. The way it happens is simultaneously totally normal and totally Hollywood. And yet: in 1991, when he’s somewhere between Point Break and Dracula and old enough to know better, Keanu starts a band.
