Re: What Not to Do at a WASP Meet and Greet
Why did Blackie get upset when the guy asked about L'amour and the Limelight? Or did I miss something? Regardless, Blackie did not look happy to be there!

He was sticking his cell phone in Blackie's face right at the start.

The guys wife passed away a few years ago and he was asking Blackie if he remembered her. Apparently they dated each other ages ago. Kinda weird...

Re: What Not to Do at a WASP Meet and Greet
Stupid rule, it appears you have to ask questions from afar...but I'm guessing they knew that before they paid for this "meet and Greet". This guy seemed to have been told, then went up to him anyways.
I actually thought Blackie's answer was fine. Told him he was disrespectful, then just moved on.
Again...very stupid rule, but you sign up for that. And Blackie did look like he wanted to be anywhere else.

Re: What Not to Do at a WASP Meet and Greet
Paying to ask a question or take a photo is cringe but on tour I watch bands make bank crawling out of the bus for 45 minutes to answer questions/sign stuff/play a few acoustic songs, so fuck it. NOBODY wants to do it but it’s a good couple grand when it’s so expensive to get around. Some people actually enjoy it but we know blackie is just doing it for the money and needs his handlers to speak for him

I think it's pretty apparent, that the "guests" at the M&G were told to sit, wait their turn, ask their question, etc..DonJuanDeMarco wrote: ↑Mon Nov 25, 2024 8:23 am Why did Blackie get upset when the guy asked about L'amour and the Limelight?

And... based on what the handler (Tour Manager) said and his actions, the group were all told, what to do, and what not to do.
Blackie is clearly seated behind a table, and my guess is anyone or everyone walking up, approaching without approval is not okay.
The bigger the star/band, the stricter the rules. So the guy just getting up and approaching was obviously a no-no.
Also, I read something on some comments that were posted, and someone said the guy dated 1 of Blackie's ex-gf's and wanted to talk about her.
Blackie doesn't strike me as the type of man, in his mid 60's, who wants to make small talk about some girl he dated in NYC 40 years ago, esp in front of everyone else with cameras rolling.
The guy approaching, in a biker vest, sun-glasses on, etc... seemed a bit odd... and it also appears he was told beforehand, what NOT to do, but he did it anyway.
The world is different... anyone remember Dimebag? Or... Covid? And... again, these M&G are usually organized, and people need to follow the rules set forth.
