hallo from the studio my loves
let’s do this:
**LATE BREAKING** i have decided to hold a public screening for the “mr. weinstein will see you now” video here in LA, THIS THURSDAY, OCTOBER 4th, at the DOWNTOWN INDEPENDENT.
the video comes out the next morning (oct 5th) to the world wide internet. (if you're new to the patreon, you can listen to the song and read about the backstory here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/mr-weinstein-see-18664353
and here's a behind the scenes look of the music video just after we filmed it: https://www.patreon.com/posts/harvey-weinstein-20294284 )
i wasn’t going to, but then kavanaugh happened. and i’m getting enough done in the studio, and…fuck it. i want to be together with everybody in my community to experience this moment.
without exaggerating, this is the most powerful video i have made in my entire career and i wish it weren’t getting more relevant by the second, but it is. so let’s get together, use this opportunity to talk and rage and commune, and LET’S DO THIS.
the downtown independent (about whom i hear awesome things from the locals) has agreed to host us on ALMOST NO NOTICE.
the event will be FREE to the public but you will need to follow the link (below) to grab a ticket so we can get a headcount. there is a maximum of 2 tickets per person to prevent people from snapping them all up. please, please be ethical and don’t grab a ticket unless you are 1000% sure you can attend. otherwise you’re a ruiner.
the cinema only fits 200 people.
there will be three screenings (9pm, 9:45pm, and 10:30pm) and each will last about a half hour: the video is 6 minute and then we can all process, talk, share and reflect.
if the tickets all vanish quickly we can add a fourth and fifth screening but i think this’ll be just about right.
IF YOU COME TO THE EVENT: PLEASE BE SUPER RESPECTFUL OF THE SPACE.
don’t hang out in the lobby (there are hundreds of people, there won’t be room) and don’t leave trash in the cinema! these folks at the downtown independent are bending over backwards to accommodate this crazy last-minute thing. be really nice & show them how fucking awesome this community is.
please spread the word about this. i am not taking it to the media, because as much as i don’t want to sound like donald trump, i’m gonna for a second: fuck the media. none of the heavyweights - even the so-called feminist ones - had the balls to premiere this video.
doesn’t matter.
WE ARE THE FUCKING MEDIA.
here’s the link to the screening tickets:

love,
me
