I thought I would post another great blog post by Loren Weisman, that I see bands have a big problem with. Bands seem to have a problem of making their personal life too public and it should be separated from the music.

Read this post, here.

In the past, I used to be open minded about everything about my life. When I used to be on livejournal years back, I used to write about everything going on in my life, which was a bad idea if you want to be a music artist.

These days, I have been keeping my personal life, off the computer completely. If you look at my personal facebook page, I still don’t talk about everything going in my life. I use my personal facebook page to talk about the entertainment industry just like I do here. Why is it good to keep your personal life away from the music? It helps stop the nasty rumors from spreading around about you.

Even if I get a girlfriend or get married someday, I would still keep that relationship off the computer. I wouldn’t post everything about that romantic relationship online like so many couples seem to be doing lately. Why would I want haters making fun of us everywhere, ya know? I wouldn’t want people saying nasty things about her.

If you still want to be expressive of yourself more personally, just do it carefully and responsibly. Just a facebook personal page and turn it to private like Loren said.

I see too many bands & solo artists being too personal about stuff. Not a good idea and too risky for your life & career. This is why I use the internet to talk about the entertainment industry only. My way of keeping my personal life, off line.
