Creative City Awards

Hello all,

We are pleased to announce that DA Recordings has been shortlisted for The 2005 Creative City Awards in the category of ‘Most Promising New Business Start Up’. 2005 has been a pivotal year for us, and to be considered for this award is obviously fantastic. There are 8 categories in all and the eventual winners are to be announced on 5Th November at a gala dinner to be held at the International Convention Centre. The evening consists of the awards ceremony itself, a three course meal and entertainment. We’d be delighted if you would like to join us on our table at the event. Tickets are £25, so please let me know if you’d like to come and I’ll get you booked.

If you’d like more information, or have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Kind regards
Craig

HI Craig,
thanks for the invite to the Creative City Awards thing. Good news that Da Recordings have been shortlisted far an award. At the moment I don't think I want anymore information and I don't think I have any questions. With respect i just wanted to say that I whilst I offer my full support to DA Recordings and offer you every bit of luck in getting the award, the thought of attending the Creative City awards is much like the thought of someone squeezing cat shit into my ears whilst making me pass comment on their collection of "Birmingham skyline as an expression of our creative mind" photographs and playing me home made recordings of their own self styled URBAN BEAT POST POEM poetry. In fact, i would rather jump through the pane glass windows of the chambers of Commerce on fire than have to watch any of the city council lot attempt to recognise good business practice, recognise art, or award genius as this is something that they know absolutely nothing about, other than in the "unaware" category. I also have no desire to be part of their cheap evaluation that ticks their boxes but fails to contribute in any way to the evolution of our species.

However it is not all bad, I know that DA Recordings is clearly a winner with or without an award and that is why I have invested the last of my financial resources in you. I would like to take this opportunity to suggest that I would like to put the £25 ticket price towards taking you and Chris out for dinner somewhere where we can eat some good food and have a meaningful conversation without being interrupted by so called experts in the creative industry who no doubt will insist that they have supported you from the start once you have won the award and they have had enough to drink. Be warned that if you don't win the award, the ones who do win will provide you with some great entertainment as you will be able to watch them get harrassed by all the same people telling them how they have had their support from the start etc etc
oh yeah, the award thing is on bonfire night, are you sure you want to go? how about we buy loads of fireworks and go and cause some trouble?
cheers
