Exactly. I think all the people who arent musicians definitely can't
understand this. It's not easy for people making "non-commercial" music
to make a good living unless they market themselves. This isn't to say
you have to sell yourself to f'n McDonalds, but I just mean that it's
really about survival. Fucking AFX sold his music to commercials -
would he be considered a "sellout"? Either way, it doesn't subtract
anything away from his music does it? He still makes amazing stuff
whether he a "sellout" or not.
