What was he expecting? to smoke a few Cubans with Tico in a hot tub before the show? Go on a bike ride with Richie? Or have a romantic meal with Jon?

I find it somewhat reassuring that the band don't whore themselves out for every rich sucker that goes backstage.
Indeed!

Besides, if this article is supposed to prove anything it ought to be reliable. Who would give credit to a piece of anonymous writing? In fact anybody can write anonymously about anyone and anything he or she wants. I can write right now a blasphemous article about the Prime Minister of my country (no President for a moment - he is dead - killed in plane crash), about my ex university teachers, about Lady Gaga, about God, about blah blah blah, about anyone. And I can write whatever comesa to my imagination and put no name under the text and say that it is to avoid trouble. But how can I be reliable then?
But even if this article is not fictitious aimed to stirr sensastion, indignation or anger among masses, still I will ask - so what? For me it is natural that when you go to a show, you just go to the show and not direct your first steps backstage to have a cigarette with Tico and a glass of wine with Jon. I would lose respect for myself if I tried to ask someone to kindly admit me backstage and have a minute with the band members. It is as if I were trying to admit I am a lower kind of a human being who begs for favour of being allowed to etc etc.
