Keith is a fan and an admire of so many before him. He understands how much it means to people when they meet him. Cool story!

Havin most experienced Swedish & Hungarian rockers....
Van the Man is mentioned, ool´ Zimmerman too.
Blackmore from the first postin. They would be toppin any list
of this kind, from what I´ve read.

The semi-stars are the worst otherwise, nation-wise.
So many @#$%&-holes I´ve meet encountering that segment.

I met John Doe from the L.A. band X after a gig one night, and I approached him by saying "I'd like to ask you, if I could, a couple of questions about your music". His response was "I'd rather talk about drinking", and he turned away and went back to talking with some appreciative female punkers !

Jon Bon Jovi must be a real MF! Í have heard that several times and again here on this board. Very arrogant and cold.

I was watching a video on Van Morrison. He was a dick to everyone, not just fans. He would be such an ass to his road crew so they used to run his harmonicas down the cracks of thier ass before a gig and after they got setting up the stage and were all sweaty.

Has anyone mentioned Chuck Berry? He must be the king of rock'n'roll pricks.

Good point. I mean, all Keef did was tap him on the shoulder once, and before he even knew who it was, he turned around and punched Keef in the eye !
