I kinda get what your saying, but you can be great in the right situation. To be honest I doubt if 10% of the crowed even new she was playing with MJ or had a solo career. And she did a great job of sharing duties guitar wise. It very well may be a case of she just wanted to play guitar and management did the hey we can mold you into the pop rock girl she bit, then said you know this ant me I just wanna rock. I do understand, as musician you have to make a living its not like 20 years ago , records dont sell its tough to get any coverage. So you do what ya gotta, get on a good tour or eat rammin noodles and take a day job.
Guitars good, drugs booze.. bad
