As well as the Wire doc, I'd love to know if any plans for a 2022 Tour are being discussed. I believe I saw the last two shows they did on the 2020 Tour in Brooklyn, NY. It would be great to know if the band has any intention to get back on the road this year.
PEOPLE IN A FILM The filming for our music documentary on post-punk titans WIRE continues a pace. This week it was an honour and a solid hoot to be able to interview the artist Jake Chapman. He was warm, open and very witty. As a long term fan and collector, to be able to explore his studio was like being a kid in a delightfully bleak candy store.
Is anyone else getting slightly concerned about the lack of current information regarding the film?
I can't find anything, anywhere, websites haven't been updated for months and it would be nice to think those of us who contributed money towards it could at least be kept informed of its progress.
This is the problem with crowd funding campaigns. There are no checks & balances to ensure that the people receiving the money are fulfilling their end of the bargain.
I've just had an email from Malcolm Boyle about the project, as I guess all the other supporters have. If anyone hasn't got his update, please sing out here and I'll post a copy.
