An Open Letter to Oprah, Whose ‘The Life You Want’ Tour Asked Me to Work for Free…

It shocks me how nobody seems to understand that this is how the entertainment industry works. Its supply and demand, and there are a whole lot of artists out there. There are plenty of artists who would love nothing more than to share their work with such a large audience. Why do you think so many artists support file sharing but corporations are against it? I'm a musician and I play for free all the time. Its for the love of the art, not the money.

If more people stood up for their morals and beliefs like this woman the world would be a better place, I don't get the exposure thing if the tickets cost a grand , then you get a bunch of people who have money buying tickets to watch people do what are trying to make a living at doing it for free ,and then going back home and never think about those performers again.

Idealism is a nice word. Not much else.

Man created the world we live in. It is what it is. You make your place in it, or you don't.
