Never liked Woody Allen anyway, his films never hit the spot for me and I wasn't surprised by what happened.

There are a number of performers that I respect for their body of work but have no time for as individuals - those that have no time or courtesy for their fans come to mind - and I must admit that does take the edge off of my enjoyment because you are aware that you are not seeing the true personna on stage.

Kendall and I were lucky enough to have dinner with Tom Paxton the other day before his concert in Bath and a nicer man you couldn't hope to meet. I can think of a couple of other celebrities that I've come across at signing sessions who were clearly there just because they HAD to be, and were simply tolerating the fans who had come to meet them. Each time I've seen those performers since I still remember their attitude and that does change my view to some degree.
