Friendly, quiet, patient, tried.to sign Piledriver album.cover. My pen wouldn't work. Someone lent me a marker pen.
At the gig(in Sheffield) I was was front and centre, really going for it. chatted to me in the crowd, DURING THE GIG!.. In the quiet bit in ROLD, he leaned over to me on front row and shouted "found a pen thats works yet mush?"😄😄
People around me stunned. Me? having a reight good old laugh.
C.2004ish? Maybe.

Outside Lewisham Odeon going in at the stage door he was gorgeous, wrote his autograph and gave me my pen back saying " here you go my love"! (Where's that blushing kissie smiley?!) At Paris he was jovial but sarcastic, saying "you lot must be mad travelling all this way" and shouting "shaddup" to the impatient Quo o o o o ing fans. Outside Wembley one time he was grumpy and Rick was great, but another time Rick was grumpy saying "don't touch the Porsche" but Francis was leaning on his to sign autographs! Another time at Wembley, (EOTRT I think) inside after the gig, some sarcastic comment about my handshake
and both Rick and he looked stoned up to the eyeballs....

Rossi saddens me, as a fan I had a very good relationship with him, met him loads of times. When I took my boys in 2013 he was brilliant with them, even though Rhino had warned me he might be a bit grumpy...
I hate how things have ended with this band....my band

I saw him quite a few times in the 80s, basically hi Francis please sign my programme, etc., and he was always good natured and quite patient with fans, he could make a sharp remark if someone annoyed him but he was never personal or huffy about it. He was good around the fans but he got more elusive as the 80s went on and I saw him quite drunk a couple of times. I thought he always tried, he wasn't belligerant. (I also saw him telling Iain Jones to stop nagging him while he talked to fans once  ) |

I found him to be a gentle, tender lover.

Never met him...
It's his disrespectful, egotistical, "I made everything," personality that has made my mind up on him.
