Taking Back the Art


Anthony Grieco's profile

This was my reply to the email I posted last week. Please excuse the delay. I've been moving, as some of you may already know.

Hey Producer,

Things have finally settled down. Jeff, John Doe and I now each live on our own after a hectic week of moving. This probably allows for a better perspective on things. "Hurt" has now become something that both Jeff and I have decided to move on from. The developments over the past couple of months have cost me my management, creative well-being, and up heaved my living situation, not to mention the three months of rewrites that never got to see the light of day. Everybody can argue their side. There will be no more of that. If nothing at all, this experience has shown me how ugly all sides of this industry are. It's time for me to go back to trying to become an artist. All I want from managers, agents, or producers is the best compensation for something they cannot do, or do not want to do themselves. Right now, if we can't use it to show around, or get new representation, we want to be redressed accordingly and in good faith - if you really want to still move forward with it.

Jeff has a free night on Wednesday. That is also good for me. How about you?

A.

I can't help but read your blog and think back to the days when "Hurt" was in its conception and you and Jeff asked me if it would be too gratuitous to have someone's balls nailed to a tree... It seems like you both had your balls nailed to a tree and that you retrieved them and they've grown stronger for your next venture. Congrats!!
