Dir or DIY’s last post (for now) was reprinting a 1983 screed/zine/pamphlet.
To quote Die or DIY
“So,to bow-ie out gracefully, ere's a slightly marxist independent pamphlet ,printed in Glasgow around 1983,that kinda sums up the demise of music into a pointless sludge that any fucker can do, quiet nicely.Its not special no more Bobby Joe, thanks to the success of D.I.Y! Boo-Hoo-Hoo?But DIY was more than just doing it yerself wasn't it? Anyway,It's a jolly good read (the pamphlet),and largely correct. Like Artists, musicians are full of shite,and that's how we'd like them to stay,but they do need to be fucking told.“
Not my opinion personally. But not not my opinion.
Anyway I can only put a few pages here on Tumblr. You can look at/download the whole thing here.
