Which musician was my favorite to meet?

So far, I have to say Rob Zombie was the coolest musician I was able to actually meet. It was at Mayhem 2010, and his whole band, John 5, Piggy D, and Joey Jordison signed whatever fans wanted for about 30 minutes. They were really cool guys, very friendly and for some reason, surprisingly clean. I always expected, no offence, Rob Zombie to be a bit dirtier but to my surprise he was squeaky clean. Just being honest;) Rob Zombie will always be a top 5 to me. The show he put on was nothing less than 110%, with giant stage props walking around to the undead coming alive, and not to leave out his bands talent. John 5, the amazing guitar player he is, smashed his guitar after the set and played through with a broken leg. Joey Jordison was great on drums, but I do believe Slipknot was more his style and shows more of his talent given that most of Zombie's music has simple beats. Piggy D, played bass flawlessly, and the costumes they wore only made the show more memorable. I would recommend Rob Zombie to any concert lover, he puts on a show no one should miss. The finale was Zombie on a giant statue singing as confetti fell into the crowd, and sadly, Korn went on after him. If I were them, I would have quit right then. They were nothing compared to Zombie, and honestly were the worst band of the whole festival. They should have played first.
