When an artist hates another artistโs work, openly or in private, it is generally a good sign- this usually indicates an actual point of view. The thing that makes one artist look at another and say โiโd never do it THAT wayโ - proof of a real VISION!
Concerts, restaurants, movies, comedy shows, sporting events...whatever you're into.
I'd rather to ride solo and smiling than bring someone along that's doesn't have the shared interest. Or worse - missing out.
