It seems to me that if you're getting paid a lot of money and these are your real fans, you could at least clean up and look good. Also, don't show up drunk or with a hangover. That's not cool, either.

That's help us get noticed by Hollywood, the fact that these fans are a wellspring of money for the studios. With Lost, for instance, ABC called us (to initiate a convention tour). That was a really nice compliment after all these years.

It just annoys the hell of out me when someone will get up onstage and [say], 'Uh, you know, I didn't prepare anything, so I'm just going to take questions,' and they have a ball cap on, ugly clothes and unshaven.
