Not knowing who we are talking about, I can't really comment. But I can say that I know how important it is to be nice to people who like your music. Yes, sometimes I get tired of being nice, especially when I've been playing all day and it's suppertime and I am in the car getting ready to leave and someone comes up and taps on the window and says, "Can you tell me what this song is my granddaddy used to sing?" That really happened to me. All my friends know, when I'm hungry, the world stops. But this lady didn't know that. Even though I had fire shooting from my eye sockets I talked to her for a few minutes.

Once in a while, though, someone says something that really means a lot to you and makes the whole day worthwhile. I think maybe that as fans, though, sometimes we expect too much from the artists we admire. They're only people, too. But I don't think that excuses bad behavior.
