26. No. He's the singer of a has been southern-rock/country-rock band.
I have no idea what his politics are, but his social skills are extremely lacking.

This happened almost 12 years ago, when I was working radio. I did a live show from the venue where they were performing, and I interviewed him before the performance. Afterward, he offered to sign some pictures and CDs for my listeners, and he invited me to sit in the tour bus and chat while he did so. The bus was not empty, and he'd been entirely professional up until then, so I didn't assume I was in any danger. I assumed wrong.

To make matters worse, I was dating the general sales manager of the radio station, who saw me get onto the bus with the not-to-be-named has been, and HE assumed *I* was up to no good, so he left without me.

When I told him what happened the next day, he didn't believe me at first (I think because he was a possessive kind of guy). Our program director wanted to go kick the guy's ass, and he chewed out my boyfriend for not believing me. It was altogether a very unpleasant experience.
