Not unusual for musicans to be schizophrenic

It's no unusual for musicians to be schizophrenic.

Wyane Shorter, Skip Spence, Syd Barrett, Wesley Willis, Michel Szekely are just a few.

A close of friend of mine has an uncle who was a jazz musician and he's now instituionalized for his illness. He's generally not allowed to listen to jazz because it makes the voices come back.

Just thought it was an interesting little factoid. :)
