First couple (or 3) times before they became huge heat, but were big in the upper Midwest. The band I was in opened for them at a big north suburban club.
The third time was when different band opened before the real opening act. (Low band on list)
But, it was a large outdoor event.
Talked with him during the 2nd act's set. (Reiterating: that band was signed to a label)
Probably 10 or 15 minutes. They were worldwide by then.
He and Robin were both extremely pleasant, outgoing and encouraging.
I would have loved to be in that room with those 2 and Daryl!
