The biggest IDIOT I've met is VIVIAN CAMPBELL. This was when he had just joined Def Leppard, on the Adrenalize tour. We had all our Leppard, Dio, Shadowking, Whitesnake (at least the EP with his ugly face on) albums with us. He just completely ignored us, laughed at us and went up to his hotel room. By the way he's a shity guitarplayer as well. He completly ruined Steve Clarks solos. For the record, all the other Leppard guys are really cool. Taking time out and speaking with everyone. Had the pleasure meeting Steve Clark on the Hysteria tour also. God bless his soul.
Nicest person I've met is PAUL LAINE of Danger Danger (and I've met quite a few "rockstars") First we got our cd's signed, then he invited us in to the club, sat down with us and talked for more than an hour. He had some great stories to tell. Remember he used to work at Little mountain studios back in the early 90's.
We also got to see the band soundcheck. The other D2 guys were great as well...
By the way I've also met Yngwie and he was totally cool to me. But I've heard a story when a guy wanted to get his bootlegs signed. Yngwie just told him . "Hey I'm not making any money on those" :-)
