Confuses me when grumpy fucks give it ‘oh, album to promote then?!’ when we musicians appear on TV or get interviewed for opinion pieces - OF COURSE we fucking do, that’s how we make a living dullard. Music doesn’t sell itself. In 2019, it‘s fighting to sell much at all.

I was told this by someone when I was trying to make it as a musician. I would have contributed drastically less in all ways if I’d actually listened to this kind of uninformed, closed-minded bullshit. Pretty sure I’ve paid back considerably more taxes than this clown Headmaster.
“Music is a hobby, it is not a career. It will not be supported by the school. I will not allow children to leave school to take graded exams. We are only supporting children’s learning.”
