tommy Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Time to stop playing to the internet then?And time to give us all a break from you promising crap that you cant deliver
Kandiman Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Time to stop playing to the internet then?I never have. I didn't even start the thread. I've never promoted exclusively on the internet (As I'm often accused of) nor booked shows for the approval of the internet fans.
Adam G Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 May I ask what the rest of that e-mail about the Skydome from Alex Shane said? I'm just curious.
Paid Members Rob Lowe Posted January 11, 2007 Paid Members Posted January 11, 2007 The screenplay I was going to submit to Mindseye has been on the shelf for a while, my partner Rotimi has been nagging me to pick it up again, but I struggle for time. I know they're still interested in seeing it, however. I have one finished project to my name, though nothing special or Earth-shattering. A ten minute mockumentary I made in college titled 'Corners.' I'm also writing a spec pilot of a drama series right now, but it's still in the early stages of development and certainly nowhere near finished. Writing/directing/producing is a hobby for me, at least until I get to make a career out of it.You fascinate me.
Guest the_uk_fan Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 If this thread wasn't started, you would have started it, advertising the show. By then it would have been too late for all the good people on here to try to talk you out of adding another disaster to British Wrestling. I'm going to agree with Freaky_Jason, you really should just leave the wrestling business. Start working on a life for your family. I've read alot of wrestlers books, and in my opinion, and theirs, the wrestling scene is no place for a family. (Unless you're Vince McMahon, Jimmy Crockett or Fritz Von Erich).
Kandiman Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 May I ask what the rest of that e-mail about the Skydome from Alex Shane said? I'm just curious.It goes on to detail the ways and means by which he could help to make the event a success, including a list of his media contacts, details of his street team and mailing lists.

I was intending to focus on the street advertising.As for leaving the wrestling business, I've considered it but... it's under my skin now. I have a passion for it. Booking and promoting allow me to combine my passion for wrestling with my passion for the creative arts.
stylesclash05 Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Look, whatever you say isn't going to stop him from attempting to run this show, so there is no point in trying to reason with him.I repeat, for approximately the 400th time in this thread:I AM NOT STILL ATTEMPTING TO RUN THE SKYDOME. I AM RELOCATING THE SHOW. Do you really think this will draw after this fiasco?

I'm just curious.It goes on to detail the ways and means by which he could help to make the event a success, including a list of his media contacts, details of his street team and mailing lists.Yes, but what about the Coventry one?Do I think what will draw? The replacement show I've not organised yet, or the show I said I was relocating? Either way, the internet crowd make up a very small percentage of any audience. There are quite a few promoters on here that will tell you the same thing.Correct, they do make up a small percentage, but in your case I though the internet made up at least 20-30% of one of your shows.

Gwailofilms Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I was talking to the producers of the above films about working on them. It fell through and that's nobody's fault. They were low budget films - a lot of things don't make it into IMDB, espescially extremely low budget pictures. I'm not even sure if they were ever finished. Once I'm no longer involved I don't pay a lot of attention.The screenplay I was going to submit to Mindseye has been on the shelf for a while, my partner Rotimi has been nagging me to pick it up again, but I struggle for time. I know they're still interested in seeing it, however. I have one finished project to my name, though nothing special or Earth-shattering.

Did you think we were discussing the Toronto SkyDome?

Or as a whole?I appreciate that anyone can have a passion for wrestling, or anything else for that matter, but surely it's time to call it a day? I wish you luck in what I hope is a success, but Kriss, please, if this show fails, just give it up. Is it worth the ridicule and stress?

The most important lesson you can learn, just generally, is that people tend to look like less of a bell-end when they don't lie, or stretch the truth to a ridiculous degree.
