Lots of "talented" people who play in bands are interested in playing music for a living. Thus, they must create songs that will appeal to a huge cross-section of people all over the world. But creative people, talented or not "technically" talented (again, this sparks anoter debate: what exactly is "talent"? I think it's a mix of technicality AND originality, but..) with self-respect issues can't do that -- don't WANT to do that. There's a reason I'm not a huge rock and roll star and lots of forward-thinking bands aren't either. I'm sure there's plenty of technically talented people who have tons of good ideas -- they just don't use them because they'd rather appeal to the masses. Obvious but true.

Also, I think I just saw Carrot Top's pubes.
