Many Japanese painters and calligraphers would change their names intentionally to keep their relationship to the art always fresh. This way, others' expectations can be avoided.
From Tina Weymouth
I have respect for those who make money at art and do it well and smartly, because that commercial aspect keeps the world going and running, in a sense.
It's a cruel, heartless world out there in commercial rock 'n' roll, and when you take as much time off as we did, eight years, booking agents don't know if you'll draw.
I would really love to work with Paul McCartney. Isn't that arrogant?
I wasn't originally a bass player. I just found out I was needed, because everyone wants to play guitar.
Richard Lloyd of Television is one of my favorite guitarists. His mentor was Jimi Hendrix when he was just 14. Jimi was always pounding everything he knew into that kid.
