I get what you're saying but isn't it also wrong to suggest musicians are addicts?
True, some are, but that is also true with dentists, doctors, athletes, joe normals and so on. and many other professionals. I have a lot of very successful musician friends and family members...... some don't even so much as take a drink of anything. So wrong to stereotype.
And to refer to people who are making a decent living doing something they love and getting paid for as "weekend band hackers" is just rude.
