I look at other members of my generation who have basically done one thing, and one thing well, and have been handsomely rewarded for it.

Most of my arguments with musicians through the years have had more to do with their attitude about music, or their attitude about their own lives, or their personal responsibility. Music has never really been the big centerpiece of the fight.
