Worst experiences:
Anthony Kiedis from Red Hot Chili Peppers - refused to sign in not very friendly manner + refused to sign to all of my friends everywhere. Got his autograph only after 2 years since the first real try.

Mick Jagger. One of the weirdest guys. Ok, I understand when Bob Dylan ignores everyone. But my friends were waiting for Mick in July 2018 late at night, only 4 of them. No one else, empty street. Mick came, signed to the first two guys and refused to sign to another two. They were real fans, not the ebayers. The total ignore is better imho. But signing 2, telling the other 2 to fk off... I got his autograph, but it was superhard to obtain (3 days of waiting and being ignored).

Graham Gouldman of 10CC. While the other members of current All Starr Band signed stuff after the show, Graham was nervous when I asked him to sign 10CC's debut album, shaked his head and said: "No".

I didn't ask anything from those guys, but I would add them to this "notorious signers" list: Ringo Starr, Bob Dylan, Slash, David Gilmour. I've heard that Ian Gillan from Deep Purple became pretty tough, but he was ok in Moscow in 2018.

You got Slash in this list? Not sure why but he is usually an easy signature.

Yes. Actually I never tried to obtain his sig cause I was never a fan of GnR, but LOTS of my friends tried to - and everyone failed. Slash ignored or told them "NO" in rather rude manner. Several years ago he was still a good signer but something happened in the last 5-6 years (maybe the Ebayers...).

Always had good luck getting him. Signs after shows regularly. Maybe some of the venues are easier.

Nice story about Jagger! I have literally spent 3 days of my life chasing The Stones also in July. Finally got Mick on both arrival (airport) and day after the concert late at night outside a restaurant. There were 3 of us and Mick signed one each, and was pleasantly very nice to us! But we got 2 denials from him before!

As for Slash, he started to be very reluctant with signing since he's rejoined GNR. Must be also the ego thing. He sometimes does a few here and there but usually is a miss. Also Axl, surprisingly, stopped signing this year - moaning all the time about eBay'ers... He was pretty cool last year so that's a weird change.
