DIE SON DIE - The motion picture

This is a link to give information about the screening of a film I produced:

http://www.thepublic.com/index.php/events/detail/die-son-die/

It is about post-punk-21st century misfits Miss Halliwell (for Misfits see Arthur Miller and the film starring Norma Jean, Clark Gable and Montgomery Clift).

It is a film called DIE SON DIE

It is being screened/premiered at The Public art gallery in West Bromwich on 10 Sept 2009.

It is unmissable.

Twitter twats

Apparently some genius in the US of A has been studying Twitter and found that 91% of its content is meaningless shit. I'm glad there are people out there who are around to state the fucking obvious.

What did amaze me however, was that only 6% was self-promotion (ie people in my position trying to advertise the wonderful artists on its label). I had it in my mind that there were more of us pointlessly posting blogs and tweets in the hope that someone out there gave a fuck.

Deluded aren't we?

No one is listening.

But still we continue, otherwise there really would be nothing of any value out there at all.

This is the 21st Century

I still can't believe sometimes, that it is possible to make and record a film and a live album, put it in web-shops on the w.w.w., so everyone from Melbourne to Seattle can hear and buy it.

When I was young, you made a plastic disc and would have to physically get it into shops by driving around and delivering them. If you were lucky people would go to the shop and buy it. Today it is very easy to produce a product.

This, I suppose, is good.

However, because it is so easy, everyone is doing it. Before it would take more effort and a lot of people would just give up. There would be less product and the only records available were there because someone broke their back to make it happen. Today you can click a few buttons, send a few emails and there it is. And here we are, now everyone has a record out.

So it takes the customer longer to sift through mountains of shit. But it can be worth it, if you have the time.

If you want a signpost, just look at the stuff we produce and distribute.

Today you can buy DIE SON DIE. This is a good place to start. It was made by people who would not give up, despite many piles of vomit placed there by people with no creativity in them and little imagination. MISS HALLIWELL have overcome the shit and made a beautiful piece of music and film.

You just have to type Miss Halliwell into a search engine and there you are.

No more wandering down the high street; we have brought it to your door.

The 21st century is a wonder to behold.

Miss Halliwell - Die Son Die

The most exciting artistic release by a band is happening this Monday, the 17th August 2009.

DIE SON DIE is a film and an album by Miss Halliwell. You can download it from iTunes from this Monday or direct from the band if you want an actual package including a CD and a separate DVD.

It is stunning. It is unmissable.

Maximum saturation.

That's what it is all about.

We will be heard. We will be hard. We will be.
