So you probably figured that I get a ton of press releases - which I want with because it's all part of the job to shift through news and releases. What I need PR and marketing people to understand is that you should not send me multiple solicitations about the same topic. Seriously, if I get the same email about the same subjects more than twice, I'm marking you as spam.
Also: I need the press releases to be sent to [email protected], where it is filtered on my inbox (so this is very important for alerts).
So I posted a few press releases on press.weheartmusic.com, which I now have updating this via FTP to a science. I'm very picky on what gets to go on this page.
The first thing I wanted to mention was that The Vandelles are playing this New Years Eve for MTV2. They are playing starting at 10pm, so tune in if you have satellite. Since I have Comcrap, the next best thing we have to music is VH1.
If you're interested in reading more about The Vandelles, read Lara's concert review. Excerpt from press release:
If you aren’t already familiar with their boy/girl zombie beach party music, The Vandelles are born out of two New York band merging their distorted sounds into what can only be described as The Beach Boys getting a facelift by Jesus and Mary Chain. Listen to their MP3s here:
“Lovely Weather”
“Swell To Heaven”
This second press release has nothing to do with music, but I was drawn to it because the creator, Judy Foston, created the Sammy Davis, Jr. Awards TV Show, which aired for 10 years aired on Channel 2!
