No, I Do Not Want To Interview Bassnectar.

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?

Change "service" to "attendance", and I think your analogy works better.

Is it weird for me to completely empathize with both milton *and* the music critics?

Seeing fellow artists get grossly underrated vs. getting paid to write about music while having to deal with a flood of musical diarrhea (relatively speaking) in your mailbox every day, which after a while is really fucking annoying and justifies the pay. I dunno... which is worse?

If critics had any real power, everyone would own a Pere Ubu album.

Um, what? LA has its own Criminal Justice Act? Can you point me to more info?
