Thank you! I haven’t even listened yet but just wanted to say how I enjoyed what you said. The music is the important thing here not the musicians’ biographies. I know it’s and old argument about whether you can admire art if the artist is not admirable - but definitions of what’s admirable change all the time. And the music industry is just that - an industry. A business. So you don’t have to be naive about what that means economically or socially or politically. But you can still enjoy the music. I sometimes look up the biographies of writers I like and then find myself thinking “Well, they obviously didn’t have to pay rent or find a mortgage”. And that’s not the point. And making assumptions about people’s lives and what’s in their heads is not a bright thing to do! What a rambling comment! But I’m looking forward to playing the music. And that is the point 😀
Ps I love them all!! And the David Byrne made me laugh! 😀
