I think it shows that C4 has intergrity ...
I think it shows that C4 has intergrity by allowing their presenters to have their own tastes, and giving the viewers the right to make their own descisions about what they like. This makes me respect the station more, which in turn is more likely to make me like their content.
Would you rather that she said something that made your video stand out or that they didn't say anything about your video at all?
I think Joanna's nailed it. I'd much ...
I think Joanna's nailed it. I'd much rather see Jaquie expressing her honest opinion, than be like Renee on M2 and describe everything in glowing positive terms that rang false. That way when Jaquie says she likes something, we know she really thinks that and isn't just reciting someone else's opinion.
I saw the video in question, and it was shit. But it totally stood out and made me stop and watch it. After seeing, it made me think that Alternate Dischord would probably be a fun band to see live.
Stale biscuit? More like a freshly baked scone with a smear of raspberry jam and a dollop of whipped cream. More tea?
It's not the Jacqui Brown show, Who ...
It's not the Jacqui Brown show, Who really cares what her or any other presenters opinnions are. Present the show with good researched impartial information and let the viewers form their own opinions. sheesh it's pretty simple.
C4 is 95% popular format, It's exactly the same as Juice. I mean a show that cons the kids into spending money by 'votting' for a small list of snogs that they are going to play anyway. Yes lots of integrity there man. The only New Zealand music you are going to see is the likes of Elemenop, Goodshirt, Goldenhorse, Scribe, Decepticons etc. It's all popular and it's all boring.
Sorry but C4 is another commercial sham, The real New Zealand music may get their 3 mins of fame on a show played when everyone is asleep. They call it support and people like you recon it's credibility. Fuck off. Hey maybe you get your kicks and edification from the realms of that shallow little world which is fine, but please don't start spouting off about integrity when clearly the focus is on selling something.
Yeah I don't see why the presenters ...
Yeah I don't see why the presenters should hard-core praise a video or hard-core dis it. Just give us info on it (since they seem to insist ... I wouldn't really care if they gave up on that either though) and let the music play!
Actually, if she's hosting it, then it ...
Actually, if she's hosting it, then it IS the Jacqui Brown show. She was chosen for her personality, knowledge and also quite probably for her taste, and if she held back on that, she'd be just as cardboard as everyone seems to say that the 'Select' portion of C4 is.
you got it on the right track there ...
you got it on the right track there robyn. all talents are hard to capture on video with limited budget and our live show is huge in comparison to the video and what the band rehearses all our time for.
Nov 28th The masonic downstairs we have an album launch happening so check us out loud and live on stage

yeh any publicity is good publicity she did plug our gig on 28th nov and album release but she also had a whole bio to read off which the programme director rang me and requested and could have said something positive about the video like how it was the only video screened on the show that wasnt funded by nz on air. made by the bands music profits for a cool $500, which obviously showed in the quality
i am just speculating what i would have liked to have been be it an ideal world.
reality check can shoot you down sometimes aye!!!

C4 is a load of rubbish anyway and Jackie & Clark are morons.
Yo! Howzit!! im feelin ya..if she gonna ...
Yo! Howzit!! im feelin ya..if she gonna say shit like that then make up her Ph***ng mind. Is it good or what...next time appreciate not knock down especially if you a host..Its not about integrity in freely expressing your own tastes on air (presenter or not) its about respect in the game especially for musician who are on the rise & trying to get out there. For her to say something like that...she's a bitch right there. I aint hating on her...just hating on her presentation as a host of our music show...it aint her show, she be just a presenter...we the ones who watch..
Well if anything, she shouldn't be saying stuff like that getting everyone confused n all because I sure will be pissed off if she was digging me, questioning my talent & then dissing me with words. Words can do a lot of harm in this world. I know...its all about the game of getting out there. Next time she should be more musically sensitive to every cat trying to get exposure..True dat, any exposure is good exposure but not when its bad!! Get it...its contemplating the whole saying so bad exposure is purely that.
I never watched C4 that particular time but from reading the comments man, it really hypes me up to think that people would be so insensitive especially to starting cats. I dig Jackie, I think she's cool, she definitely makes me laugh cos she's real silly like me..real silly humerous & witty with a twist but still - stop confusing your viewers...its bad for your business...I wouldn't be surprised if C4 died laters.
Post me, cos Im the next female (hip hop) emcee....on the rise...Keep watching my space..

i agree and i wrote the song, it is shit
we have 35 original songs and had a chance thru friends in the film trade to make a professional styles music vid for next to nothing. another story but we got a whole production team together who didnt get paid and that was the easiest topic to make a video from on our budget,,,,,hey Road Rage ,,,,smash up a couple of cars get full of rage and have a great time making it .so didnt have many avenues of choice.
To the point as a band we dont like that song either
bummer aye!!!
in for a nz on air grant though so may be able to make another with one of our more talented songs

cheers we like what we do on the most part . the video was certainly meant to have an element of "mad max " styles comedy about it
it certainly left the presenters hanging liked stunned mullets afterwards which suggests it was the 1st time they had seen it too

yeh don't be such an ingrate, you got you're clip aired, I'm happy for you, don't worry about what jackie said, she's got her tastes, you've got yours

Man, harsh evilette! I'd be mad in kirkdischord's circumstances too ... after all how many people are gonna watch the clip then hear Jackie and think "Hmm, yeah that did suck". She should let people make up their own mind ...
She didn't say "YOU SHOULD HATE THIS ...
She didn't say "YOU SHOULD HATE THIS TOO" did she? And then follow that up with either "I'll show you my boobies if you promise to hate it" or "I'll send you to the rice fields if you like that song" ? I might have just missed the part where she refused to let people make up their own minds. If people are going to be influenced by Jacqui's tastes, then basically, they're going to be influenced by anything.
Man, even harsher Joanna! I guess not, ...
Man, even harsher Joanna! I guess not, but still I wouldn't be dissing videos like that if I was on C4 ... maybe I just don't have enough personality.

I never saw your clip whoever owns it but all clips are cool, i mean they are made in the end..

I saw that Kirk, Jackies a bitch. Tell her to suck your wang. Allister was real funny in the passenger seat, I've known Allister since i was young. Truthfully, i didn't like the music style, but the video was awsome. I was surprised that a video like that could have been made in N.Z. Normally, we have videos where the song is set in one room with a White background or something shit like that.
Good luck with getting signed. I'll ask Allister to keep me informed about you guys.
cheers good to hear something ...
cheers good to hear something positive
the song is a bad recording 4 year old 8 track demo that was just there when the video production was offered.take the piss quick no fuss rec. session
our style, talents and recordings have all improved dramatically since that demo which is exciting for us cause hell at the end of the day they played that dodgy AD video. so if we approach them with something a lot more proffessional and "to air" friendly ,so to speak, we are in a damn fine position for some more air play
cool!!!

it is a small company just started out.specialise in cd audio production for people wanting to apply for a nz on air grant and done a few of those for all sorts of different genres of music
sent off earlier denmos to lots of labels got great positive feedback from flying nun records and some good input from them suggesting to plug on and that we are goning about the marketing etc the right way
was good to get that feedback but a letter of appointment for signing a deal would have been a lot better obviously

Allister gave me a call today and talked to me about you dudes. Asked me a couple of things, gave a proposition which i accepted.
