A nice motto to live by? Maybe. It's just a thought, hardly original, that's always tended to roll around in my head when the lives and activities of rockstars, writers or other creative folk are discussed.
And of course it goes both ways. The nicest bunch of people in the world might record music that is utter shite. Bono might be (is) a great humanitarian, but it won't colour my opinion if the next U2 record stinks.
A racist motherfucker who beats his wife might write a song that makes you cry.
As I say, hardly an original idea, it's all been said before. But maybe it bears repeating. How many original ideas are there under the sun, anyway? At my last calculation, approximately 9,567.
So steal this thread! Use it for your bang-and-clatter-ish pleasure!
