I actually don't think he would be.

Dave Grohl seems like pretty chill guy. On the flip side, Gord Downie was kind of rude when I met him at a festival one year. Might've been tired or something, I'm not quite sure.

I duno, it can be tough to judge.. I'm sure around there inner-group the majority of people are liked.. Some people just deal with others better, and some don't care as much... The way it is.

Based on his interviews(not the best thing to judge someone's personality with, but it's all I can really use), he seems like the type of guy that thinks he's a lot smarter than everyone else, even though he's really not. In his interviews he never takes the questions seriously and comes off as really disrespectful to the interviewer. He's pretty funny sometimes though, I'll give him that.

If anyone follows him on Twitter, you'll know that his tweets are generally far from pleasant.

I don't think Tyler, The Creator comes across as an ******* but I can understand why he'd rub people the wrong way. It just seems that he doesn't take anything seriously. I actually find him to be really funny though.

First people I thought of for being mean was the Gallaghers. They just seem like completely self-absorbed pricks.

First person I thought of for being nice was Marc Bolan. He seemed really nice in interviews.

Noel is a spiteful piece of trash whose lips I wish I could sew shut.

Gord Downie of the Tragically Hip? I met him a couple of years ago in Kingston, ON (where he is from), and he was really nice.

i think he'd be a cool enough dude when people aren't all up in his sh*t, he's stated before that he hates parties and being the center of attention.

as for nice musicians, the guys from Clutch seem really cool in a couple of your uncles sort of way(i'm not in my 40s or have a family like they do so that's how they strike me), as well as Mike G and Left Brain from OFWGKTA.

for mean, Kanye West obviously(although i still love his music), Mike Patton and instead of TtC, Jasper from OFWGKTA seems like he'd be an assh*le

Kamui, Uppermost, and Arms & Sleepers are all unbelievably nice. I've talked to both guys from Kamui, and Dom even IDed a song for me that not even he was familiar with. Uppermost has posted songs I showed him on his Facebook a couple times, and Arms & Sleepers are insanely kind and gracious. I ordered a poster from them (as in just ONE), and they sent me one of every poster they had! For $2.00! I'm not familiar with any "mean" musicians.
