If your an artist being asked to give encouragement to an aspiring artist, it's a tough call. I seem to remember a story about Jon Bon Jovi, while employed as a janitor in a recording studio asking Bruce Springsteen for advice (which was not encouraging). So, depending how you look at it....Springsteen might have just been trying to protect us all from Bon Jovi. And of course, Bon Jovi will never let Springsteen forget it.

Yes, personal vision probably clouds all serious artists perspective. But if, from experience, you know that you have just heard (or seen) crap, you know you'll be hated for saying so, or worse, lie to fella', likely sending them into a goose chase life of hardship and frustration. Like you mention, it can be just a simple matter of ego that gets between any reasonable criticism.
