i just wrote a really nice letter to Pop Culture Media explaining basically how i feel regarding the entire situation of them firing carl craig. i hope that others will follow suit.
basically, what i told them was that i feel their decision to ask carl craig to step down from the position of the creative director was untimely, unwarranted, greed-driven and short-sighted. i also stated that i think my presence this year at demf will be a reflection of my support for mr. craig and in protest of all that ms. marvin has tried to turn this festival into. undoubtedly, i feel that whoever she tries to have fill the position next year should pretty much be unsupported as they should be fully aware of the situation with carl craig and why they needn't be involved with PCM. i told them also that i pretty much am 110% behind carl craig. no expletives, no attacks really...just expressing the gist of how i feel about it right now. :P i don't care if DEMF this year is going to be "FUN" or whatever. granted, i know that the music will be wonderful per usual, but the ideology behind it has changed so drastically that i cannot support pop culture media. hence why i will not spend my money in the festival. i'm going elsewhere to eat, will not buy concessions, and will not buy any propaganda (tshirts,posters) with the festival name, as it will go straight into the pockets of ms. marvin and her cronies. :P okay...that's probably enough to annoy all of you adamant "music posts only" people on the list. :) thanks and drive through... ciao. lauryn. -- ************************************************************** "nothing is an end because it can always be used as a basis for something new and different." -keith haring ************************************************************** [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ************************************************************** -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
