i worked backstage for a summer at a big venue near my hometown so i got to meet some cool peeps, so heres my list and the impression i got form them:
eric clapton (mellow dude), tommy lee and nikki sixx (really cool cats), dave matthews band (i met the whole band right after moore accident so he wasn't there but the rest of them were all really cool guys, dave was even hitting on the girl i was working with haha), brad paisley (awesome guy, if i could afford to drop out of school and just be this dudes roadie i would, hes into all different kinds of music and he just really seemed to enjoy talking about music; just an everyday kind of guy who hasn't let the fame get to him), buckcherry (bunch of douche bags, everytime i got there room set up the way they wanted it they would change there minds and want it a different way), tom petty (pretty mellow dude whos just into his craft), brad arnold from 3 doors down (guy seemed like a college frat guy but not such a ***, he was a really nice dude who just enjoyed being around people)
