What justifies Lindsey's comments for me is the fact that he spent the past couple of years releasing albums and touring behind them, knowing full well that they probably wouldn't chart and he would most likely lose more than make money. He did it for his art and his fans and he was honest about his intentions there. So the fact that he blatantly says, "I'm doing this for money" really does not bother me. I'm grateful he's honest and I'm still going to see the concert and cheer for the band. Really, I am going for Lindsey. I love him dearly and he's my favorite. Yes, he's capable of being a bit of an asshole, but I enjoy parts of that side of him sometimes as well. It's an interesting combination with Stevie's airy personality.
You could say I am biased, but actually I'd probably applaud any other artist if they said what he said after they'd spent the last few years doing what Lindsey has done.
