Also, I tend to find most musicians worth their salt become pretentious at some point. Essentially, they get paid to indulge themselves, it's pretty much inevitable.

thats a very good point about seeing a musician live and your example of John Butcher is a very good example, i think he is great as well and doesn't come across nearly as well on record than in a live situation (i've seen him twice)... maybe Rowe i would have a refound appreciation for if i were to ever see him live.
