Apr. 3rd, 2009 12:06 am (local) Don't know babe. In as much as the closest I come to breaking into their world is as a lyricist it's hard to compare. I've always been part of the support mechanism. I was a stage manager and tech in high school, harmony voices in chorus, etc. Not a bad thing by any stretch...the building requires the foundation.
I know I've been involved with "indie" artists on various ends of the spectrum. But even the biggest diva I've had to deal with is in a position where he has to start over again. Right now he's not loving it. His band, on the other hand, is busting their asses. So yeah, their idealism resparked my own.
Like we all do with the people we admire, I've painted a persona on more than one person. With age, I'm not shocked when I find out they're not what I wanted, I just wait for the other shoe to drop. I can honestly say though now at this point if Adam's plan was to be The AI and get signed by Sony/Clive Davis and do what ever he's told then that's him and I'll see what happens after Idol and decide whether I'll invest any money in him. However, I still hold out hope that he was just in it to get discovered and that he will get signd by the people waiting for him right now and keep all his edge. I'll enjoy every Tuesday night until he's not there any more.
Oh, and remind me, don't respond to comments when I'm buzzed. I start to get philosophical. :)
