This rock thing got in the way of my teaching career.
Meaning of the quote
Al Jourgensen, a Cuban musician, realized that his passion for rock music ended up interfering with his plan to become a teacher. He discovered that the rock music he loved so much took up a lot of his time and energy, making it difficult for him to focus on his teaching career. Instead of becoming a teacher, he ended up becoming a famous musician, which was not his original plan.
