HoundsTV.com have listed the best and the worst music people for autographs and meeting fans in 2008. The best were: AC/DC, COLDPLAY, THE GUESS WHO. The worst were: LED ZEPPELIN, BON JOVI, THE EAGLES. The AC/DC and Led Zeppelin descriptions read as follows:

Best - AC/DC: Perhaps of all tours to hit Canada this year - none was more anticipated by fans and autograph collectors than AC/DC. It had been more than five years since the last time they breezed through Toronto and everybody remembers how fan friendly they were back then. It was good to see things had not changed with AC/DC and they were still the same great guys in 2008. From the time they checked into their downtown Toronto hotel, until boarding the bus to play the sold-out stadium gig, to after lunch on Bloor St. the next day - Angus Young, Malcolm Young, Cliff Williams, and Brian Johnson (and yeah, and even the usually tough drummer, Phil Rudd) were signing champs and all round great guys greeting fans and collectors at every turn. AC/DC - The signing champs of 2008. And with a good new album and buzzed about world tour - probably the biggest rock band in the world right now.

Worst - ROBERT PLANT & JIMMY PAGE (Led Zeppelin)

While they were not touring together, founding Led Zeppelin members Robert Plant and Jimmy Page arrived in Toronto within weeks of each other during 2008. Plant, on tour with ALISON KRAUSS played a summer show, and Page came to the Toronto Film Festival weeks later to support a film (previous post about that experience here.) Page announced on arrival at TIFF regarding autograph requests “I’m kinda finished with that.” and stuck to his word. Robert Plant was equally dismissive the few times approached by collectors over the course of the couple of days he was in Toronto. By mutual agreement among many, Page and Plant were the worst rock god signers to come though during the year. Autograph collectors went home with their Led Zeppelin memorabilia unsigned during 2008.
