Why is it that the more filthy rich you are, the more richly filthy you become?

I spent the day in an attic office in Camden, sitting around waiting for bands to arrive so we could ask them some filmy questions (secretly mine and my colleagues sneaky plan to get free entry to gigs - even if it did fail). One thing I did notice, other than everyone likes a good chat about films, was that the more well-known a band was the grubbier and greasier they were.

Now is this because the lesser known bands have fewer groupies, and therefore more time to wash between moments of adornment from their fans? Who's hanging out with these guys, and deeming them achingly hip, when they pong?

There are many things which essentially stop me being a rock star, and now I can add my standards of personal hygiene as another milestone distancing me from this vocation. Only my arrogance means that I still believe it could happen.
