What would Andrew Weatherall do?

Five years since Andrew Weatherall left us. Read this great piece from DJ Mag, "What would Andrew Weatherall do? 13 tales of the Guv'nor's infinite wisdom" - excerpt below:

"Andrew Weatherall had a way of distilling life into simple, sharp truths. Be kind, be open-minded, don’t be afraid. Not everyone will like what you do, and that’s okay—music’s not for everyone. Wear good jeans, sturdy shoes, and don’t be shy with the turn-ups. Jah will provide. Climbing the greasy pole isn’t worth it. Read books, eat biscuits, and never underestimate the power of a proper cup of tea. Adrian Sherwood is the boss. A good haircut matters. Quality is remembered long after price is forgotten. Keep it under 122 bpm. Don’t fear the cheese—fear the cheesemans. Avoid the artist dinner unless it’s with people you love. Work hard, do your research, then do more. Always be prepared. Low culture is just as valuable as high culture. Laugh at yourself, laugh at everything. Always do a sound check. Be courteous, but don’t suffer fools gladly. You can’t win them all. If you’re remixing, keep the five best bits and bin the rest. Never let the band in the studio while you’re at it. Cake is good. And whatever you do, don’t let the grubby little opportunists grind you down."
