Here it is; here's what you've all been waiting for. My first real entry.
Fans are odd things. They will want you to sign their arms and their posters and their cds, but they could care less about you. About the personality behind the picture and/or talent, about the person who is really making it happen.
Everyone I know has a public persona. For me it's Scott Moffatt From The Moffatts, and then plain old Scott. There are lots of differences between the two, but given that they're both me they overlap. Overlapping is good. Overlapping is great. But when they're the same it gets a bit scary.
With a new band I'm having to build a new public persona, one that's a bit different from the last. And I'm not really sure where to start or where to end. I have vague ideas of what I want and that's it. But I suppose at this point in time it's not too important--I have at least six months before I have to worry about the general public and fans.
They're like women. Can't live with them and can't order them around.
