What the fuck? Was that supposed to be some kind of "lesson" he wanted to teach Heston? Hes has a lot of lessons to learn, but fan deservedness is not one of them.Marky Dread wrote: ↑22 Jan 2021, 5:53pmHe wanted Heston to read a book by Nick Hornsby about fans who have to have everything. I think that was the gist of it.

Re: Unreleased working mix of Stay Free
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

That's more or less how I felt. Anyone else willing to have a go talking to him, you're welcome.

BTW, the Monterey footage guy never responded to my email. Ah well...

Fucking people who want money or making people jump through hoops or precious fuckers who are just nut jobs. Does me in that they don't understand the spirit of the thing.

Re: Unreleased working mix of Stay Free
Not totally related, but part of the same mindset: Maggie has been working on a documentary film for the last five years and a key piece of 2-minute footage is owned by this woman who wants $9,000 to use it in the film. A very indie and self-financed film about one of the nicest people you could meet. They keep telling the rights holder that they literally don't have that kind of money to put into a film that is assuredly not going to turn any kind of profit. They've counter offered a ton of times but she won't budge more that a paltry sum here or there. It's like, you could make SOME money out of this footage, but you've instead decided to make NO money whatsoever on it because you're greedy or precious about it or whatever, and priced yourself out of anybody using it. Nobody else is ever going to want this footage for anything, so it's not like she can hold out for a better offer. Not to mention that the lack of this footage is going to hobble the film from an emotional impact angle, even though she pretends to have some sort of connection to the subject's legacy. People are shit.Marky Dread wrote: ↑22 Jan 2021, 8:14pmFucking people who want money or making people jump through hoops or precious fuckers who are just nut jobs.

I just saw this thread -- thanks to all involved in getting these two songs out into the world for all of us! Holy smokes, I love this SF version. Mick's playing was just magic.

People believing that 'that' item will be their golden egg. Silly stuff really.

Re: Unreleased working mix of Stay Free
When was the last time you were in contact with this guy? And how much does he want? It is just down the coast from here, maybe I should drive over there with a bag of cash and see if he can resist that.
I really want this out there, we've waited long enough.
