"There is no such thing in the music industry as a democratic
organisation" Dennis Skinner MP 1998
There are (at least) two types of musical artists..
Musicians and the Featured Artists from the cartel.
This posting was inspired by the recent words of Xanana
Gusmeo in regards to a nations "historic responsibilities""
to those "colonies" they left behind. And Not by anything
else..Except the industrial poverty pervading in the UK
since ex Conservative PM Edward Heath (himelf a musician
of sorts) signed the Common Market Agreement in 1972.
And sold UK creators down the river to cultural slavery.
And had our industry taken over by administration criminals
who continue to grant themselves and their staff free holidays.
pensions, health care and cheap transport. While
disengranchising the rights of creators and even the system
it self wherein there is not single democratic organisation in
existance and certainly no one person one vote
Burma
Even if the generals were not readying to funnel off their
fortunes into Cayman Island accounts, and leaving their
"national feelings" far behind and then quitting the
"Yangoon scene.".
We wondered how much finance from the new "Debt Aid"
relief successes would "filter" to the roots of Burmese society
by using the "humanitarian system that is to be employed in
other nations (Send your answers in a well disguised brown
paper bag?)
"Live Aid" ?? A repeat?
DEBT RELIEF? Patronisingly "Featured Artist."
1/ Is'nt this just another great chance to show the world what
great "humanitarians" that UK Featured Artist pop stars
have become?
2/ "LIve Aid raised millions, but even though Lord Geldorf still
says that it all got to the "right places".. we know better.
3/ We also know who makes the Major profits from such
public "good deeds" And it sickens..
Now we have "Net Aid" a new form of cartel and polotical
publicity. And the featured artists are lining up for the next
big show and to get themselves on tv to be associated with
such as Clinton, who has also grasped this excellent
opportunity to grab the best of headlines himself..
WE ALSO know that the poverty inside the UK music industry
is created by the Criminal Activities of those organisations
and individuals who assist such (mediocre) artists as BONO to agrandizement,
fame and fortune, and allow him to become
that "wonderful warm human being" of which he is lauded
so to be.
Another careless mega-rich mouthpiece for the music
industry criminals?.
The music industry is the worlds 4th largest industry. Not
many people realise that fact.
Third World debt? BONO and his pals could buy up half the
nations already in debt and turn them into their own personal
golf course. And make no mistake, BONO will make even
more dollar zillions from this "humanitraian" publicity, and (
by chance) so will his record company and royaty conduits.
The latter which he condemns for taking too much from his
glittering pile of gold bars.
So what inspired this "generous contribution to our societies"?...
The bottom line was that recording sales were going down..
down .. again..
Of course, these featured artists are all paid up members of
such as Amnesty.. So, over the coming years, if anyone wants
to follow the Debt Relief money?
Tell us how much .. and what percentage actually filters down
to where its needed the most, and we will send you a gift..
We will send you a really really expensive (seen the price of
CDs lately?) BONO album?
