I think one of the reasons musicians keep doing what they do and writers keep doing what they do, is that we're totally unsuited for anything else. And I for one am much too lazy.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The public is usually slow to catch on to new things, and it's important that musicians stick to their guns and not look for that instant gratification.
I'm envious of writers and musicians. I think it must be so difficult. Not just the frustration, but the discipline.
We're musicians. We make music for a living. It's that simple. Nothing else matters.
The bottom line is that musicians love to make music and always will.
I prefer career artists that have spent time honing their craft, as opposed to, 'I won a karaoke contest on a reality show and now I have a record.' That's such a drag. The music that comes out of it is so poor.
Every musical movement that is big enough has to produce some good musicians who wouldn't have had the incentive to start playing without it.
A lot of musicians aren't proud; they'll do other work, just to be able to play music. I guess that's the way it's always going to be - musicians will have to suffer to a certain degree in order to obtain their outlet.
Musicians are always eclectic. Musicians are always curious and hungry for new things.
By and large musicians are pretty lazy; they don't do a whole lot. They're usually very busy doing nothing.
For too long, musicians have been the greatest enemy of music. Their lack of desire to proselytize is a kind of betrayal.
