I buy a tractor two years ago, and four-fifths of the tractor manual is about not tipping over, not raising the bucket high enough to hit high-tension wire. . . not killing yourself, basically. And in that manual, I found out - and it cost me a thousand dollars - that when the tractor is new, 10 hours into use of the tractor, you have to re-torque the lug nuts. If you don't, you will oval the holes. This is buried between the moron warnings. I never found it. I take the tractor in for its regular servicing, and they say my wheels are gone. How am I supposed to know that? "It's in the manual. "
I think that's who you should be servicing as an actor is the fans. You don't wanna alienate new people from coming in, but you gotta first and foremost service your fans.
What I was doing was servicing the needs of my constituents and I was not allowed to do that because I did not toe the line on U. S. policy for Israel.
Sometimes not honoring your character makes for really good television, but that also can really upset fans. You have to turn things upside sometimes. As a storyteller, you have to know that sometimes you're going to let your fans and the audience down because you have to do your part in servicing the story.
My art has nothing to do with servicing collectors, it's for living, for turning on with.
