Ironically, Maynard lives within 30 minutes from me today. We share the same industry - wine. So we are intertwined.
Here’s some intel that might interest you. Maynard is a douchebag of epic proportions. Always trying to use his ‘celebrity’ status to further his agenda — even if that means trying to use that ‘weight’ to cut in line at Walmart. Yes, I have many stories. Including the 15 one star review my company received from going to his ‘new ultimate’ vineyard. BULLSHIT - He let his celebrity status chew through his mind……….
Jerome/Sedona area? In the former hippie commune?
A friend of mine once went to one of his wine tastings and they had the publicist come out and give the celebrity disclaimer like 1) Maynard will only discuss his wine. 2) Maynard will not sign music related merchandise 3) No photography... and onward to "You will be removed"
He's another Prima Donna.. what a shock.
Hear that about Danny Carey too. The "Best drummer" status went to his head, but if you know where to look, he gets outclassed by an Avril Levigne Cover Band Drummer nobody has ever heard of.
if you understand Thelema/OTO people you can get it. While it's celebrity status in general that goes to their heads, the will to power ones are somehow worse, and the ones you want to strangle the most if you ever interact with them. They are the most obsessed with control of their likeness and rudest to the lesser punters that have to get their pretentious fucking healthfood smoothie.
I hate celebrity entitlement. It's right up there with the most coddled of trust fund babies at times.
A capitalism argument can be made that the Bonos of the world earned the right to virtue signal while abusing their personal staff of 100. Like it's a meritocracy and earned net worth thing that calls that behavior pragmatism, even Smart.
