Definitely looked like a tool, for sure. I understand wanting to focus on the music, and not the acting due to the reason for the interview, but to act that way about it? Whatever, who cares about him?
It's funny because the ONLY reason he'd be getting any press at all for his music is because of his other career. I think he has this attitude that since it's his first love (sorry Billy!) and he pals around with Daniel Lanois, he's any good at what he does but one quick surf through his videos on YouTube dispells that. His poor band though. He's pretty much ruined it for them. Either people won't care or they'll become some sort of sideshow.
