I have no idea what to do, If a musician you liked was about to die would you want to know? I'm just worried that everyone who would see the show would just feel sad about it and I don't want that to be the last thing I give them.

tough spot OP

I wouldn't worry about bringing your fans down, they're going to savour every performance even more. The support from people who respect what you've accomplished might make the end more bearable.

Be careful how you release the information though. How were you planning to tell everyone?

>> No.31517828

I would want to know, definitely. But do what you feel is best man, it's your life.

I do want my fans to know, badly. I'm just afraid that they will filter out all of the emotions i'm trying to convey in my songs because they know that i will be gone soon. I would just like to know if you people would be able to handle the fact that an artist you like will die, and still be able to enjoy the show.

It totally depends on the context of your situation.
That being said though, IMO the best thing to do is to melt their faces.
J Dilla performed on stage in a wheelchair in his last months. Let them know you who you really are through your music and not your life.
I am sorry for you OP, I do not know your pain but I know it must be very real for you.
Keep fighting. You've made it this far so that proves you at least have enough strength to fight til the end.

Make it public, continue putting on the best damn shows you can for as long as you can. You can't change how people will percieve your work, and withholding information from your fans (who presumably care about you, if not personally) is at best manipulative.

Announce it before the public, but don't think this means you will be spoiled in the public's eye. Keep it going. Play until you're physically unable to. Dedicate the rest of your life to honing your art, playing to the people, making music. Make it a point to see that your legacy is preserved by your bandmates, friends, and family well after you are gone. When people see a famous musician struck ill, they do not instantly think of him as just a man headed for death, they consider his achievements first. In his final two public appearances conducting an orchestra in Frankfurt, Frank Zappa, already marked for death with cancer, was given a standing ovation. Do not feel that your fans will deny you the same gesture, albiet probably in a different method.

On the offchance this is real, I'm going to be really sad.

I remember a thread earlier this year where a guy claiming to be jeff held a brief Q&A with some of us. We all thought it was stupid, but his answers were so perfect that I actually began to believe that it was him.

Then he said something that I haven't forgotten. He said that Julian called him Santa Claus. It's why I named the bearded pic of Jeff at >>31518411
Santa. The fucked up part is, the only pictures of Jeff's beard at the time was from Primavera Sound months earlier, and it was way shorter, certainly not long enough to be a Santa Beard.

So when that video of the Telethon came up, I freaked the fuck out. I thought it was a wacky coincidence that Jeff kept his beard growing like he did.

Now I know I'm fucking paranoid as fuck. But this shit scares me.
