"Art Is Passion" :: Shane D. Wilson

“Art Is Passion! It’s love, and it’s sex, and it’s hatred, and it’s bloody, and it’s beautiful, and you get really close to it which is probably another reason it's hard to go back. You know you just get so inside of it, and then sometimes nobody listens to it, and bands break up, and artists get dropped, and people go bankrupt and get divorced, and you know it's it's a long road to that” -Shane D. Wilson

Back in my Charlie Peacock days, there were more hours a week that I spent with this man than I did my wife. You know, you invest in these artists and these things and most of them don't have record deals anymore and most of them you've never heard of. 

You know it's a hard road sometimes because it's all about passion, right? Even if it's not music, you're into it. It's art. It's passion, and it's love and it's sex and it's hatred and it's bloody and it's beautiful and you get really close to it which is probably why another reason it's hard to go back you know. You just get so inside of it and then sometimes nobody listens to it and bands break up and artists get dropped and people go bankrupt and get divorced and you know…  it's a long road. I think Jessica White said there's love in it, but there's hate, there's madness.
