In the end, I think LB certainly like to identify with the whole maverick artist image and all that that implies, which ususally, but not always, is the starving artist image, - but he also like the glamour of big time rock and roll all of the luxury that that affords him (who would BTW - I would).

It just makes me chuckle when he bemoans the very industry off of which he has made a fortune and the one that he seemingly always comes running back to
