Dear public record, called history: No one has bothered to be interviewed me over the protest action: There was multiple reasons, far larger than my bands brused objections which led to the taking over and blocking the lower levels of television New Zealand's high-rise then blasting them with the sounds of the streets of Wellington. First was the conceited letter from Tom Parkinson. These commissars of entertainment arguments for our exclusion were false. Firstly, the album was recorded at marmalade studios by the owner, marmalade studios 24 track was the most expensive studio in Wellington at the time. The video clip, was shot and edited completely by RADIO WITH PICTURES staff member from Tom Parkinson's Department. Whether passe? Becomes a direct reference to members of his staff, and his ability to employ people, it was their decision to include pictures of police violence. Considering what New Zealand had just gone through, the largest policing social unrest since the Maori wars and that those images played daily on the news .To consider that these images needed to be banned from use in the music art form or protected from the eyeballs New Zealanders watching late-night television really shows how incompetent and arrogant Tom Parkinson was. Anyone can not like the songs. That's a matter of his taste. But to discount records which are in the top twenty, home-grown...front page of the music press, supporting international acts, representing the artistic output of a large youth musical social section is ludicrous. But yet another example of the oppressive atmosphere most New Zealanders artists work under either from state institutions or New Zealanders cultural small mindedness. The final trigger for me to organise Wellington independent music tribe to protest about this smug bureaucrat was the refusal to play 'OHMS' latest soundtrack/ clip, a harmonic folksong?!. Then from my investigations in three years, no Wellington and Christchurch, Auckland, unsigned independent music clip had been allowed to be played on state television since 1979. And this man and department were directly responsible for blocking the rights of New Zealand citizen’s access to their state television monopolistic music program. I was prepared to not let them get away with it and embarrass him and his state hypocrisy with protest action and smoke bomb, chaos for all the free musicians of New Zealand. Considering we rang the police to remove the protest, smoke bombed the lower foyers of a high-rise building, blocked access in out of television New Zealand during a working day and screamed at them for a number of hours through a large PA….and this action, never made it to the New Zealand television news… 2 channels??? And there isn’t belligerent censorship in New Zealand…wake up to yourself. Ake Ake Ake VOID of RioT 111
