Band press photo of the year
Someone commented on Hot Fruit thus:
“I love women who produce art for themselves and don’t ask for your approval. Women can be brave and rude and intelligent. Women can make you uncomfortable and they can set their own terms.”
As The Stranger pointed out, these sentiments could equally apply to the press photograph of Seattle’s Chastity Belt, taken by Sarah Creighton.
Respect. Oh, and while we’re here:
by Everett True
My name is Everett True. I am a music critic. This is what I do. I criticise music.
The clue is in my job description – music critic. I do not consider myself a journalist, as I do not research or report hard news. I do not consider myself a commentator as I believe that everyone should be a participant. I criticise people and in return I am not surprised if other people criticise me. It is part of the whole deal of being in the public arena.
I am Everett True. Believe in me and I have power like a God. Quit believing in me and I no longer exist.
