Ya, I don't think he was being rude either. His music's fantastic and we absolutely love him, but he's still human like you and me so it must feel weird to him to have people coming from all the way around the world to hear him sing and meet him.
Then again, he goes to all these places around the world to sing for us as well
There's nothing wrong with it at all. I think it's wonderful to support an artist you love, and this was a really fantastic experience!!!!
