But there's just as many stories out there about Grant being completely flaky and unprofessional and an all-around mess. I couldn't have been easy being in a band with either one of them.
I can only go by my own recollections and experiences, but he was as cordial as you could ever hope someone to be to me and my ex-wife when we interviewed him in 2009. I met him again a few years later in 2013 and though he claimed to remember me, I don't think he really did. He was really nice about it, though. Maybe he was more prickly occasionally to fans/journalists decades earlier when he wasn't sober, etc.? I honestly don't know.
