A group or an artist shouldn't get his money until his boss gets his.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Most artists don't get paid for what they do, and they are lucky if they can persuade a friend to let them show something at a kid's birthday party.
I believe that artists should be paid for their creativity. There's no other industry where people can come in and take what you create for free and give it away for free and that's acceptable.
Artists shouldn't deal with business stuff; that's not what we're trained in, and most of us aren't good at it.
We don't have real hours and we don't have a boss, so artists create rules for themselves that they then break. It's transgressive in such a personal way.
A lot of artists are much more concerned about how their work is used and how it's disseminated. That, to artists, is as important as the money, for some people.
No one should drive a hard bargain with an artist.
Artists usually don't make all that much money, and they often keep their artistic hobby despite the money rather than due to it.
Most artists think they're frauds anyway.
Any artist manages his own business along with his manager. Every band should.
I believe artists deserve all the help they can get, so they can focus on being great artists.
