If I wouldn't offend my religion or God, why would I want to offend an audience because in effect those people are being watched over by the same person.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
You want the audience to be uncomfortable.
If you say, 'I don't want to offend anyone,' then don't get on stage. Just ask yourself, 'Do I think it is right? Do I think it is offensive? And do I think that everyone is okay to hear this? If I truly believe this, then I should go and do this.'
Our society strives to avoid any possibility of offending anyone - except God.
I like the idea that my audience doesn't see what I do as controversial.
You've got to honor your relationship with your audience - that they sit down because they want to be entertained. And that doesn't mean you can't provoke them and antagonize them and challenge them in the course of the entertainment as long as you keep the entertainment part of the equation alive.
If you're not offending one group of people, you're not entertaining the other.
I don't care what your religion is, as long as it doesn't chastise anybody that's not part of it.
I just have a respect for my audience. That seems to be pretty logical.
I don't think shoving my butt into people's faces will tell them anything about who I am. How is that connecting to your audience? What is that doing for your music?
My audience is God.
