This is true.
Probably this:
When Tom died, my mind went to the most unfortunate possibility. That's what hurts most; the fact that some artists you like might be despicable people behind closed doors. Then the other though occurs to me that they off the ones that want to come forward.
For instance; Stevie Ray Vaughan. I prefer to think that he was never approached by them, and the heli ride was a true accident. The fact is, he finally got a spot on MTV unglugged, and got some Stevie Ray Wonder music video exposure. In the end, I like to believe if he was asked, he told them to fuck off with that nonsense.
