There is no such thing as a rock star who toured for 25+ years who doesn't have people talking about how "difficult" they can be, and sometimes I sure they are.
Jeff was no different, but I would bet that the people who would say good things out number those who say bad by at least 100 to 1.
And really, how bad can a guy who wears a Gumby shirt be?
