Twiggys abuse/rape allegations

I feel like to an extent it's *important* to separate art from artist; you're almost setting yourself up to fail if you put the person on such a high pedestal (their skill, their work ethic, their style - that's different). I know people who put musicians on such a high pedestal it's unrealistic. I know people who are angry at Trent because he had the AUDACITY to get married and have kids, change the way he worked ever so slightly, and *gasp* let his wife do backing vocals on a NIN song. It's almost like he's a human or something! :eyeroll:

This brings up a memory of when I saw NIN in FL back in 2009. I stood next to two girls who were in the pit with me and both had on white shirts that said "HOW COULD YOU HAVE DONE THIS TO US?" written on the front. When asked what that meant, they explained, with tears in their eyes, that they were so upset that TR had come out publicly with the news of his relationship to Mariqueen and wanted to voice their disdain towards TR in person. I just replied "wow....okay" and slowly moved away from their area.
