I live with one foot in the monstrously two-faced world of performance art. The basic rule here is "don't get caught liking something everyone else hates, or your credibility will be forever shot." Therefore, in order to avoid potential embarrassment, everybody pretty much trashes everything - UNLESS you're talking TO the actual performer. Then, you glow and gush.
I'll never forget the raised eyebrows and cutted eyes Grancey and I received years ago because we were plebian enough to actually visit Graceland AND have a good time there. UGH! How pedestrian....
None of you would believe it, but I'm actually a very agreeable and likeable guy - I just have my nuclear moments. So there are times when I fit in the performance world and times I don't want to.
