Dangerous to the bank account, mostly.

Guitarists in particular tend to be slaves to tradition and will pay big
money for custom-limited-special-editions of instruments set up exactly
the way their favorite artist from 1974 had it and will endlessly debate
the acoustic merits of say, roasted swamp ash vs. regular swamp ash as
if there\'s magic in any of this.

note from the article that the guitar Eddie Van Halen recorded the first
album on which made him a millionaire and has sold over 10 million
copies to date was more-or-less made from scrap parts

Nice tie-in to electronics there.

A month ago, I reviewed some of his stuff. He has an interesting forward
flip in the \"Jump\" video, he takes off on all fours and gets good
height.

Actors and musicians are creatures of emotion. They like cigarettes,
alcohol, heroin, and lots of unprotected sex.

Ahem the hip-hop/rap artist community in the mid-late 1980s and early
1990s were some of the first to encourage men to wear condoms regularly
via their music, well before it became a common thing for white artists
to do.

It often tended to be framed rather crassly but it wasn\'t gun, bitches,
and bling all the time.

The under-30 demographic of \"millennial\" by the statistics has less sex
than the previous three generations.

Now you can read articles in like Vanity Fair talking about how
\"millennial killed sex!\"

No wonder they\'re confused.

  Jagger and Richards have probably been through all of it to the full
extent, but Jagger even at 77 is still

bouncing around the stage for an hour of more. Did I say an hour, this
concert is 2:14 long.

Here\'s a 2020 concert with Mick still shaking it. Sorry there is no
audio. Hey the sound came on at 2:04:06

> https://youtu.be/fqRyTpKtYFM?t=172

If it wasn\'t for sex, drugs and alcohol, we\'d have to watch rock and
rollers on the stage still playing at 102 years old!
