: What really irritates me is when people like a band they moan "Why don't the Monkey Battlers get more attention?" Then when they get popular they say, "The Monkey Battlers totally sold out with that 'Mystic Orbs Of Brain' album!"
"Oh no - other people like this band now! That means they're going to play bigger venues, more people are going to see them and I won't be part of this little exclusive bunch of fans who are the only people in the world the band should be playing to or making records for."
Also - for "band", substitute "writer / director", and for "concerts", substitute "films".
