I think I clearly made a case for supporting Poe. But think about what will happen when this kid writes a whiney letter to this Exec. who honestly doesn't care...

First, no benefit will go to Poe 99.9% certain. Say you disliked an article in a magazine and just wanted to throw in your 2-cents worth. You send a letter to the EDITOR of the mag, not the publisher. Execs only see numbers, and this becomes the case more and more everyday in the music industry. (Look at the Geffen/Seagrams/Universal/etc. situation. What the hell was a booze company doing buying record labels? Trying to make more money. So they didn't know the first thing about music. Units are units and money is money and and numbers or numbers. Where in the hell did anyone get the idea that ART and TALENT were in some way involved in all this?!?!?) And depending on what higher-ups you complain to, it could even hurt. Some labels could even look upon it as an artist being a rebel-rouser and telling their fans to cross the lines in an effort to help. It's sort of along the lines of when your mother takes it upon herself to go to your job or contact your boss to talk about the stresses you have revealed at home, but in NO way insinuated you wanted her to step in, particularly if you are of reasonable age. If you were 15 or 16 and the prob was bad enough, sure, it may be needed. But it definitely don't fly for an adult. And though the boss should not hold it against you, inevitably the issue will always be there. (Could my metaphors GET any longer??) >I was merely suggesting >(and I'm not saying that I'm right or wrong) that we show support in other >ways...

Actual sales, hits, traffic, and $$$ >are the only things most of this industry is reading. Actually, letters to the Editor are mostly read, some publications being more diligent about it than others. ("JANE" swears that they read them all, e-mail and snail mail, and considering some of the OUT THERE letters they print, I can't help but largely believe them.) So, like I said before, if you really want to write letters, try writing them to various magazines and/or entertainment shows persuading them to do stories on Poe or feature an interview of her. When their is a reader/viewer demand, it's starts a great chain of events. First, it alerts the media to the growing popularity (or re-popularity) of an artist, and any media outlet that tells you that they don't care about having the first jump on things is lyin' like a dog. Then if they get interested and start approaching the label for material or requesting an interview, that interest is duely noted. And then if a piece is published or aired, PRESS! and if I have to fill you in on the events to follow, then there's no hope for ya.

Gnostics believe there are other, greater gods than the one who created this universe, including one who equates to "Mother".

First of all, I wasn't planning to write "whiney" letter. I mentioned in my post that I wanted the letter to be nice because I want to keep my backstage possibilities open. I posted so that I could get advice from all of you what to put in this letter, and what not to put as well. I also mentioned that I know nothing about how Poe is treated by her record label, other than that she herself said she wasn't getting a lot of backing from hers, and that they didn't quite appreciate the creative process enough. This matches up with what this guy said to my dad, the gist of which was that Poe does have enough support, but she isn't pumping out one album after another, and is therefore not at the top of the list in terms of promoting. That was his drift as I interpreted it, anyway. I still found reason to write him a friendly letter expressing fanatacism for one of his signed artists because he ASKED for it, without any prompting from my dad (my dad doesn't prompt) and he IS a nice guy. Maybe I'm naive, but why would he send me free cd's and request letters from me if he "doesn't care"? (He's not THAT great friends with my dad) Yeah, his caring is a means of promotion, but at least he seems to understand that. Anyway, I was excited at the opportunity to write a letter expressing whatever might need to be expressed about Poe because I have read about endeavors similar to this on this loop. You know, having connections at Atlantic, people calling to say how much they like Poe and her new album, etc. I was thinking that if people from this list contributed ideas or maybe even direct quotes if they wanted to, the letter, however small and ineffective, could have been from the Angry Psychos. And I would have been proud to "represent" all of us in some way, even in one letter to one exec. I personally think it make a positive (so what if it's not HUGE) impact. Anyway, if you think that my writing a friendly, personal letter about Poe will actually HURT her in some way, that's a different story. However, I don't see how it could in this situation, and it actually sort of disturbs me that someone could think that I would write a letter that would make someone think that I am a rebel that Poe is rousing. I would never put Poe in that negative (and untrue) light. I would hope to portray the ideal fan. (which I am) And I will also continue supporting Poe by requesting her songs, buying her albums, posters, t-shirts and stickers, and most of all by telling everyone I meet something like, "If you buy Poe's albums, either one, you will love me forever for suggesting it." Well, I could go on, but as you can see, I already have. xoxo, Fzanya ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2001 11:34:58 -0400 From: "Stephen van Vuuren" Subject: RE: KPR: tours and such The tour of all time...

Anyway, I told my dad to tell him that I am disgruntled about what I have been hearing about how Poe doesn't have enough support and promotion from her label, and stuff, and he did give Atlantic Records man that message, and the guy said something about how she DOES have enough support or some such thing, and some other things which I will go into more detail about later. The point is that the guy told my dad to tell ME to write him a letter about it. And I don't know ANYTHING about what Poe is getting and not getting, or anything like that. I need everyone's input about what to put in this letter, besides that she's great.

I don't have very regular access to a scanner... All this talk of Gnosticism made me giggle. I'm in the middle of Umberto Eco's "The Name of the Rose" right now. If you're interested in philosophy, medival religious sects, etc. -- check it out. Also, I just finished a fantastic tome, "The Basic Eight" by Daniel Handler. It is kind of a cross between Pahalanuk's "Fight Club" and Nabokov's "Pale Fire" transposed into the teen-angst drama of a tony San Francisco high school. If there are any kid's books fans/baby goths out there, Daniel Handler is Lemony Snicket, who writes the "Series of Unfortunate Events" books. keeping you well-read, mrd ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2001 11:38:18 -0700 From: "Robert A Darke" Subject: Re: PR, important, please read APs!! I don't think it's such a crackheaded idea... We'll all be kicking ourselves if Poe gets dropped by Atlantic and disappears (a la Jane Jensen), occasionlly putting something out on an indie label with little to no distribution. That's my 2 cents. Rob From: Fzanya@aol.com@smoe.org on 04/24/2001 12:37 AM EDT Sent by: owner-angry-psychos@smoe.org To: angry-psychos@smoe.org cc: Subject: PR, important, please read APs!! Okay, APs. I need your help. Okay. Listen. I have tix to see Poe opening for Depeche Mode in Philly on June 30th. My dad commutes with some major player CEO type of guy from Atlantic Records, who sometimes sends me and my brothers cd's on his label, which is awesome of him. He's a cool guy, and the closest thing to an inside contact I could have. (and now that I think of it, he's pretty damn close to the inside!) Anyway, I told my dad to tell him that I am disgruntled about what I have been hearing about how Poe doesn't have enough support and promotion from her label, and stuff, and he did give Atlantic Records man that message, and the guy said something about how she DOES have enough support or some such thing, and some other things which I will go into more detail about later. The point is that the guy told my dad to tell ME to write him a letter about it. And I don't know ANYTHING about what Poe is getting and not getting, or anything like that. I need everyone's input about what to put in this letter, besides that she's great. I am so excited that I could possibly do a tiny thing to support Poe, and indirectly support me, because if she makes more money for her label, she makes another album, which makes all of us happy! SO PLEASE HELP! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. I have to give this letter to my dad in the next couple of days to give to Mr. Atlantic. (he is a cool guy, he send me cool cds and knows that I love Poe, and I think he finds this a good opportunity to get info straight from the people who listen to the music. When I met him a couple years ago he asked me what music I liked, and luckily I mentioned Poe first, even though I had no clue if she were on his label or not!) YAY POE! - --Fzanya P.S. The guy from Atlantic told my dad that he would try to get me backstage to meet Poe!!! I want this to be a nice letter so that he doesn't take it back!

Sales = Money Traffic = Money Hits = Money $$$ = (your guessed it) money So you mean to tell me that all the recording industry cares about is money, and not the artistic aspects of the music? Coulda had me fooled. Everyone knows that the recording industry doesn't care about money, it's all about spreading good music to the masses. After all, they promote such things as Napster and other ways to share MP3's of music people would otherwise not hear. I will give them credit though, they are pretty good about promoting such true artists as britney spears and n'sync, while keeping under control the cookie cutter, unoriginal stuff such as haunted because lord knows there's no artistic quality to that one. It is truly great to see such honorable individuals as record executives having such a degree of success while still maintaining their integrity and helping musicians maintain their artistic integrity.
