Yeah but the point being made here, kind of the point of the thread, is if you get rich and famous - and you only get that way if people buy your stuff, let's be honest - don't moan about it and start being a prick. Any musician can jam or record for hours or days and get great stuff he or she never uses, just likes for itself, and that's fine. But when it gets to commercial success, remember how you got there and who put you there. That's the point.

That's a step away from having to bend to the will of your fans even if you don't enjoy it. That's the point I'm making here.

Just want to drop this in here, to compliment Lisna on a pretty excellent and original thread, by a guy who tends not to make many. But when he does, they're usually winners.
