Met Randy Owen at Wings in Tuscaloosa. Not very friendly.
As popular as they were and still are, and he's easily recognizable, I'd imagine it would be tough to try to live a somewhat normal life without being a bit off-putting due to all the requests.
Minor sidetrack: I was in 8th grade when a friend asked me in school if I was going to the Morgan County Fair. Wasn't going that night. He went and the next day said he'd seen a great band named "Alabama" that played. Got to see them for the price of the fair admission.
That was early autumn 1979. In January 1980, "My Home's in Alabama" was released. The rest is history.
