I have Jerry Cantrell and Mike Inez. I never met layne. AIC were at a concert we went to in 1996.
I have been meeting people for 15 years. That is why I know th eins and outs and ettiquete of meeting bands.
it isn't the same it was back in the late 80's. there weren't as many autograph seekers( professional people who sell) as there is now. Also fans were more considerate back then.
It is weird now. Kids just don't respect each other or the celebs they are meeting. Even OLP. I have met a few *ODD ONES* at the OLP things. Most fans are cool, but there have been afew *crazies*
My favorite type of fan is the ones who turn their noses up at me and treat me like I'm trash, then someone in the band will come over and give me a greeeting etc. When I met BUSH last year, there were all these girls surrounding Gavin( wow, i wonder why. Same with Raine?
) anyway my friend was going to take a picture of me and Gavin. I said I haven't got a photo with you. He set where do I look. This girl pushed in front of my friend. I didn't do anything. I stepped aside and let him sign things. When he was done, I said gavin can I get my photo now. He said yeah. the same girl went to push in front of me. I said do you mind. She said something like *okay Fats, you can wait* or something like that. I know I am on the heavy side, but that comment was so uncooled for. Anyway my friend sort of pushed her out of the way and i got my photo. After that gavin walked to the bus. Nobody got a photo that night. That girl was pissed. She wanted to get a photo and he said Sorry I have to go. yeah.
I swear I might not be a raving beauty or anything like that, but I have met a ton of people and have always gotten the best greetings( if I have met them more then once)
don't worry- you are still young. When you get to be my age, you would of met a ton of people also.,
