What about those musicians who fire roadies for not having their Persian carpets arranged properly on stage

I've ne'er met any famous prog musician in person, so I can't really say if they are an A-hole or a nice guy.  I'm aware Phil Collins is known to 'ave a temper.  As for a nice guy, I've read Neil Peart's books and he seems like an upright fellow.

don't mind. Why should I be frightened of dying?
There's no reason for it, you've gotta go sometime.
I never said I was frightened of dying.

Who is the MOST blatant a-hole in prog and who is the TEDDY BEAR in prog?

Don't know how well this one will go, but I think that....

 Mikael Akerfeldt is the definite Teddy Bear of prog, he's modest, makes corny jokes and cordially introduces himself and the band on stage. I'm so in love...

I haven't decided on the blatant A-hole of them all yet... more to come on that one.
