I have not problem giving artists food and drink in fact I normally do so
I normally give the artist a 100 bar tab and take them out for a full meal
these requests were out side of what I already provided to this artists...
He rejects hambergers from 3 places when they were brought to him and then
insisited I bring him Mcdonalds. I was forced to bend my morals in this
case and spend money at a Mc donalds which I have not in over 10 years
just to satisfiy this person whom I already took out for a huge thai meal
for that night. the end was 16 hambergers later he did not eat any of them
he said he just likes to look hat them on a plate as they get cold...
now what the fuck was that you tell me...
