@@dougtodd305 - Excuse me, but I didn't remember my comment made over a year ago. English is not my first language (I'm Italian) so I don't understand what you mean with "no pretense to Billy". In any case, I didn't mean and I haven't written that he is the only kind and humble person (in this case musician) in existence, obviously there are many. I met Frank Zappa many years ago and I have very nice memories. Vinnie Colaiuta I met him twice during Sting's tours who was very nice to me and he also told me what really happened during his audition with Zappa ect. But not everyone is always like this beyond the "bad day" that a person can have. Unfortunately I have also met some artists who have disappointed me despite they are famous and/or very good but as men (or women) they are very questionable.
