   Great report (might be more exciting to join our group... email me).   
      
   But I wonder,... is it his job?  Hehe; they should have a "job   
   description" when they sign on the contract with their   
   agencies,managers or whatnot that x amount of autographs and being   
   nice to the fans (unless the fans are crappy to them) is part of their   
   job description.  However, I can see if they stopped everywhere for   
   everyone signing, they'd have NO time at all in life for anything   
   else.  So there has to be limits.   
      
   Congrats and cool on the collection of large drumsticks (love that)
