$10 says they sent it to the address of the publication you're writing about it for. because it happens CONSTANTLY to freelancers.

Just following up after our phone call earlier! (Thanks so much!) I'll be mailing you out the Hot Apple Pie cd and press kit soon! We're looking for interviews, blurbs, whatever you've got!

all i know is: i have a devil of a time getting actual CDs from actual record labels for actual reviews i have to write for actual magazines. and it bugs me cuz i don't have all day. well, sometimes i do, but still...

:(

god no, anything but that. it's a fate worse than death. on the other hand, it pays better than writing reviews. but i'd rather write ad-copy. or liner-notes. or bassnectar's bio. (okay, the last one isn't true. but the ad-copy and the liner-notes would be fine.)

um, some of us still have to live here, phil!

a bit misleading, considering this was no doubt in the Readers' Poll, which is subject to the whims of ballot-stuffers and their friends

HEY, not too long ago i got spam from a WRITER!! did anyone else get that? I wish i had saved it. He was pitching interviews with bands.

i hear we have a good art scene though.

Other odder things have been seen of late.

Man, that's a terrible name for a band.

haha MUCH odder.

i wouldn't call it an exaggeration

heywood, write me with your questions!

seeing the number of absolutely outstanding, near vacant SF shows I've seen this last year, reading a bunch of critics griping about occupational hazards & taking it out on the musicians makes me resent every single time any of you have ever been paid for your opinion

You lived in Seattle?

sexual predator apparently

Yeah, I had posted something on the Weinstein thread about him, but probably should have posted it here. I do feel like we should maybe have a metoo thread for ILM so the totality of it doesn't end up on individual threads for musicians that people around here don't care much about. Bassnectar, Ryan Adams, Front Porch Step... Wasn't there some NYC indie show promoter who was sexually assaulting women a couple years ago?

Here is the link I posted on the other thread. Admittedly, this instagram mostly shows a lot of partial screenshots of things, but they have text of the original links in the descriptions.

Here’s your proof about @bassnectar and how everything that was “untrue” is actually true pic.twitter.com/LkYNJ2ubQJ

Beyond being a sexual predator, apparently he is a total asshole in many aspects of his business as well.

My thoughts on Bassnectar and the truth about why I stepped away from it all, for those of you who don’t have me on fb but are interested! pic.twitter.com/NXDSC6WwNn

Tim Westwood = AWESOME

reviving this thread but yeah there should def be a general thread for this stuff:

https://www.theguardian.com/music/2021/apr/07/bassnectar-edm-dj-denies-allegations-of-sexual-abuse-and-human-trafficking

There was one started in response to that post - can’t copy on zing, but it has “bassnectar” in the title and has been active in the past week.

you're right, sorry I totally missed that. reposting the above link on that thread.
