I was recently at a function surrounded by famous musicians for a few days.  I am not a musician but i was with a friend who is.   The thing that frustrated me was that everyone was only interested in the title and what you did.  Not who you were.  They were only interested in what connection they could make and what they could gain from you.   At one stage i sat on the balcony-overlooking this sea of superficial people.  I was glad i had swam from this sea to the safety of the balcony.  I wondered if i was the only one in the room that felt this way or were there people who wanted to swim against the current too. Did they need saving?

 

By the end of the few days there i wanted to scream.  I dont know how people can work in that type of industry.   I know i couldn't. I couldn't live my life around people who ask what you do before they ask for your name...
