He was an ass because you might have misinterpreted the way he looked at you? Come on man give the guy a break. What a total asshole for not inviting you on tour with the band or at least letting you on stage to play the solo on RITFW.

They are so down to earth. With there fame and dortune they could have stopped doing interviews a long time ago and become real snobs. But I think Eddie remembers where he came from,he was a security guardfor several years,and has tried to keep those ideas through out his career. Just look at the number of bands have invited Eddie to sing with them or tour with them,it is a testament to his passion and love of music.They are not perfect, they make mistakes, but they are human.God Bless PJ.
