I would suggest that if you don't "give a shit about what anyone else thinks about yer music" then you should think about another profession/avocation. The ivory tower, art for art's sake philosophy went down the tubes decades ago. If your tree falls in a forest and no one hears it, it indeed, does not make a sound. And music is nothing if not sound. Anyone who suggests they only make music for themselves is either disingenuous or full of the worst kind of hubris.

I'd think about it, but I certainly wouldn't suggest killing yourself.
