for everyone

"You CANNOT make friends with the rock stars. That's what's important. If you're a rock journalist - first, you will never get paid much. But you will get free records from the record company. And they'll buy you drinks, you'll meet girls, they'll try to fly you places for free, offer you drugs... I know. It sounds great. But they are not your friends. These are people who want you to write sanctimonious stories about the genius of the rock stars, and they will ruin rock and roll and strangle everything we love about it."

Nggak lah. Baru nonton Almost Famous lagi dan itu memorable quote paling penting dari film itu menurut gue. Subyektifnya ya karena Bangs cukup influential juga buat gue, walau sisi gonzo-nya gue buang hehehe...

Well, we've been friends even before you were a hotshot journalist, and I don't think I'll ever be a rockstar. I guess we're both writers.. trying to show as much truth as we can. Let the pieces fall wherever they may.
