In July of 2015, before Nick Cave and his band recorded their latest album, 'Skeleton Tree,' Cave's 15-year-old son, Arthur, died falling off a cliff in Brighton.

Read Mary Lucia's thoughts on the resulting film, 'One More Time With Feeling.'

This week, Mary Lucia considers bad behavior among musicians. 'In rock 'n' roll, that is mighty subjective,' she writes.
