...it was a couple of hours before his show in Nashville and he was very nice. I couldn't help myself and I asked him if I could get my picture taken with him (I know it's so touristy of me..I wouldn't have cared if it was Jay-Z,  but it was THE REP). I told him I wouldn't post it anywhere and he was totally fine with it. Very cool guy.

But the photos can be accounted for without making it impossible for him to be a recluse. Whether or not he recorded many of his initial albums during one short period a long time ago, or if they were recorded more or less in order of release is still up for debate (I think it's a little of both), but I think pretty much everyone agrees that he dug in his past and got pictures of him at various points in his life, and I think he probably decided that his covers should be something like what they have been forever. I think he ran out of, or lost, interesting pictures from his past, but was sorta bound by then to use these kinds of pictures.
