- Quote: Q. Dear Mr. Cloth, many times in these pages you have encouraged your fans to try and sneak into shows. Now whether the show is 21 + or not, isn't it true that if people sneak in you don't get paid? How do you reconcile that? Signed, a concerned citizen.A. Dear citizen, thank you for your concern. Please allow me to clear up your confusion on this point. There is no money in this job, just glory, and that I am willing to share. So please make the show your ownÐyour adventure not just the band's. Don't be a passive witness but an active participant in lifeÐthat's what makes the scene so exciting, that everybody, or at least more than just 4 people on stage, are living large and creating their own atmosphere, their own reality. of course I encourage kids to sneak in.
