For once, being an old fart has it's advantages. Back in those days security wasn't as tough, and they were all much more accessible. Much more laid back than today. No internet - so people didn't hound celebs for autographs to resell as much, so they gave them easier. Not as many people trying to get backstage back then- Mac was kinda pase' and didn't have the next gen with them just yet, like now. The music business was less corporate back then, the people seemed nicer (Record Label guys would often give you backstage passes when they were done with them if they knew you were a real fan). Try that today, the beancounters are much more Nazi-ish now. I don't think I will ever get those opportunities again - until Mac are playing Branson, Missouri.
