My Alibis #2

"Part of the to be the greatest rock-and-roll writer of all time is a complete lack of modesty. And having an utter lack of modesty as a rock critic is easy if you also have the other necessary qualifications - being shy, antisocial, awkward and desperately in love with your own company. All the things that you repress in the real world - confidence, articulacy, charm - you could unleash from the privacy of your writing room (usually your bedroom) into your writing, creating a massively arrogant and charismatic persona for yourself in print that could be something you could only re-create in the real world when very drunk."
--Paul Morley, Words And Music.
