Diane also said she wound up embarrassing Jon a lot because she was trying to play the part of what she thought a rock star's girlfriend should be and he didn't want that--he wanted someone real. She said she made an idiot of herself drinking too much and even baked cookies for the band when they did Farm Aid in '85. She said there was entirely too much miscommunication, but they didn't split harshly.
