Contact via dream - did I speak to a dead man?

[Orphic]

I hope I am posting this in the proper forum - I think I understand the meaning of this dream, but I am wondering if it was a coincidence or not. _______________________________ I should explain first that I am in the process of learning how to communicate with spirits via meditation. Some of you are probably skeptical of this, and I understand that, but bear with me for a bit. During my sessions, I have been attempting to contact one person in particular, and during each session, I have asked him to visit me in my dreams (I do firmly believe I have gotten through to someone during my meditation). This will become important. I also never knew this man personally, nor did he know me - all I know of him is based on what I have seen or read about him. _______________________________ This dream occurred a couple months ago. It was about a week after I meditated. In my dream, I was walking through the downtown area of the city I live in; the street I was on was very clear to me and I knew where I was. As I continued to walk - and, apparently, not watch where I was going - I physically bumped into someone. I began to apologize to this man when I realized it was the man I had been trying to speak to. Before I continue, I also need to point out that, at the time this dream occurred, I had seen mostly images of this man in his 'professional attire', which consisted of a bizarre costume, a peculiar hairdo and heavy make-up. I had only seen what he looked like in 'everyday' clothing in a couple of photographs. In my dream, this man was in his everyday clothing, and despite the fact that I had not seen many pictures of him in such clothing, I managed to identify this man as the one I was trying to communicate with. I looked at him and said, "You're (his name), aren't you?", to which he replied that he was, in fact, that person. I went on, "I saw you perform a couple nights ago and your act was amazing" -- this was not a lie. This man was a musician and I had been watching old videos of his club performances a couple of nights rior to having the dream. We exchanged words I do not recall, but eventually I said, "I don't want to keep you from wherever you're going". I don't remember what he said to me verbatim, but he went on to say that he was not going anywhere in particular and he asked me to walk with him. I do not remember what happened after that. _____________________________________ The logical side of me wants to think this was a coincidence since I had this person on my mind so much. The spiritual side of me wants to think that he really did visit me in my dreams. Also that week, I had another dream kind of about him...in which I was dressed like him and singing his songs before a crowd. That dream I paid little heed to, but acknowledged that I had dreams based on this person twice in one week. It is rare for me to dream twice in one week in general, so the fact that I had two dreams about a very specific person over the course of a week really makes me wonder. I have not dreamt about him since.
