"RETIRED" ROCK and ROLLER'S: Obtaining their signatures - anyone got a need or a story?

There are those Rock and Rollers that for all intended purposes, are all but "retired". Christine McVie comes to mind for me, as I have a 1990 Fleetwood Mac tour book that has all 5 of the other band members signatures from that tour, but for over 15 years I have been needing her to complete it. Word has it she is living the quiet retired life in jolly 'ol England. Thus, my tour book remains unsigned by her.

John Deacon of Queen is another on my list of retired musicians. Thinking a bit, these names also come to mind: Randy Meisner (Eagles), Bill Berry (REM), Grace Slick (Jefferson Airplane), Michael Nesmith (The Monkeys), Bill Wyman (The Rolling Stones), Stan Lynch (drummer, Heartbreakers), and Denny Laine (Wings). Some of these musicians are still keeping their fingers in the music industry in some capacity, however basically they are no longer performing and are a very tough autograph to obtain.

It would be nice to see any of these artists, and others I am sure come out of hibernation and attend an autograph show or some other public signing. If you need any of these musicians like I do to complete a fully band signed item, you like me, may be really out of luck.

Any of you collectors in the same boat that I am with these artists or any other artists that I have not named? Time to tell your "story of need"..........
