fucker broke my sitar, motherfucker...

look how fragile musicians are! i'm sure most (if not all) of you have seen the documentary "dig" which this clip is from, but if you haven't, this was supposed to be the biggest show of the brian jonestown massacre's career as it was their showcase for a bunch of major labels. i think it just goes to show how scary success can be. translating what's in your head into an actual song/performance is a terribly difficult process and will drive you crazy if you aren't willing to adapt to all the variables that will inevitably present themselves. anton newcombe has such a clear idea of what he expects of his music that he refuses to account for the however many other people in the band that are participating in bringing his songs to life. there are about a billion interviews with him on you tube. good examples of the "rock star losing his mind"
