Yeah, I think the big difference is in yourself.
When you're first famous, you love it because it's what you're trying to achieve.
So you actually get a little hit or something goes well and people in the street know you, you love it.
There's never any of this sort of, oh, people are bothering me.
You didn't have that.
The modern affliction.
Yeah, no, we loved it, you know.
And you learn to deal with it.
I remember going to a gig once and I took the train out of London to the station near this gig.
And I walked in just on my own to the gig.
And there was a little gang of girls found me.
And they're all screaming around, and I'm going, girls, girls, calm down.
Now listen, here's the deal.
If you keep quiet, I'll do your autographs.
We'll walk in, and it would be great.
So you learned how to deal with that, and they got it, and they were very good.
They realized they'd get some special time.
As time's gone by, the times have changed.
