Rock and roll stars have it much better than writers when they're on a tour.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Rock stars wanting to write is even worse than wanting to act in movies, right?
I tend to write better when I'm not touring.
The world is crawling with authors touring now. They're like performance artists.
Songwriting is the other weight on the opposite side of the scale from touring. They balance me out creatively.
Most writers can write, most rock 'n rollers cannot.
You can always boil down the life of a musician to touring, playing, and writing.
The big issue with rock stars becoming actors is that sometimes it's not believable, and vice versa with actors becoming rock stars. Sometimes just doesn't fit.
The biggest problem in rock journalism is that often the writer's main motivation is to become friends with the band. They're not really journalists; they're people who want to be involved in rock and roll.
There are plenty of people in the world who have tried to be rock stars and have not gotten there.
The great thing about rock and roll is that someone like me can be a star.
