hag said:wow. it does seem like years ago when we had that first meeting. i had no time then either.
billy. when you get to the end of your years and you ask yourself, "i had so many plans... where did all my time go?" ... will your 'systems analyst' tag give you the same comfort?
eh?
well... you know who's to blame for that, right? yankicised wankers, that's who. still, neither of us could ever have put it as good as this...MacFlecknoe said:Plans are timeless.
Thumped is missing the earnestness of those days. It's all about fucking up shit these days.
touche compadre. touche. i would have said italian. but yeah... i know what you're saying. but, it is a bit of a cop out at the same time. tell me what the french would have done?MacFlecknoe said:We just weren't French enough.
such high praise!rothko said:This thread has potential
hag said:in your opinion, if it was to happen all over again, what would you do differently? or did my initial comment right true? people just waiting to get signed and for other people to do the work etc... like the jimmy cake? i'm not saying that.
ah there ya are. good man vinnie. only buzzin' of course.Vinnie said:Good man Haggis
hag said:bill - yes, anything that keep billy off the streets is good. and people working together. but the fear is that people have tried it now and it didn't work. this is why you need the post-mortum. lessons learned etc. what kind of SA are you? KPMG or something??? sheeeeesh.

wasn't that aprt of the original idea? that the 'subscriptions' would go towards creating some sort of small salary for someone to do that? i might be completely bonkers but i thought that idea came up... the distribution thing is perennial (sp?). it always needed a dedicated individual.MacFlecknoe said:That Systems Analyst tag comes from the Onion - check the Vox Pops page on it. Every week there's a Systems Analyst.
If you think about it, the only thing that didn't really work was the distribution. And for that to work, I think you need someone who is pretty much going to give up their job and be prepared to travel around and make contacts with shops in other cities.
But a lot people involved moved on in their own ways - simply didn't have the time or their priorities changed.
It would have been to good to set up something like Post Everything.

yeah, but then people would start to resent them for the usual mundane reasons. which leads me to my next question. are politics and hierarchical structures (esp. where men are involved) not just unavoidable but actually necessary to get the job done?MacFlecknoe said:I think it was. Whoever that person would be would probably have been in charge. And I think it needed that - someone who'd actually call the shots.
