Ok, so here are the addresses to write to:
Geffen:
Interscope Geffen A&M Records
New Media Department
2220 Colorado Ave. .
Santa Monica, CA 90404
US
MTV:
MTVN Online L.P.
1515 Broadway
New York, NY 10036-5794
US
VH1:
Administrative Contact, Viacom IS&T vis-admin@VISLAB.COM
Viacom International, Inc.
1515 Broadway
Attn Carmine Juchetti
New York, NY 10036
US
It's best not to e-mail them, because that is more for the technical side of things, so the best bet is to make an actual letter and send it out.
What we can do is write them letters asking them when any Garbage videos will hit these stations, because lets face it, MTV/VH1 is hardly if not at all playing the videos, and we all know that MTV and VH1 have HUGE audiences, and by them playing Garbage videos, we could see Garbage like Beck and Gwen is doing, dominating the charts.
As far as I am concerned, I really don't care for sales, but we ALL know deep in our hearts that we want to see Garbage videos on these stations, so at least new audience members could see how good they really are.
So when you guys are sending the letters out, please put that you wish this go to advertising and please don't write things like "OMG like you suckz0rs and we want Garbage on!" or "MTV suckz0rs and Garbage rulesz0rs!". The best thing to do is tell them how great Garbage videos are, how people will love the new videos, and to at least give them a chance, because every band deserves that.
Writing to Geffen is important to, exactly what you guys type here everyday is exactly what you should write to them about. If we let them know how much we really want Garbage to make it, they could at least try and boost more productivity with them. Not to say they aren't, because they surely are doing more than Interscope did.
Again, when writing these letters, make sure to add Advertisment to the letterhead, and make sure to direct it to Garbage and the CEO's. So for example:
Advertisement Department VH1
Viacom International, Inc.
1515 Broadway
Attn Carmine Juchetti
New York, NY 10036
USA
That way the people who get the mail knows to bring it directly to advertising.
So I need people to sign here, people who will write the letters and send them out when they can. Also, please write different letters to VH1 and MTV as they are the same company, or even, just write on the top of the address that you are addressing both MTV and VH1.
So I gave you guys the stepping stones, so lets take some action people. BLM is doing good on radio, imagine the success it could do if this was on TV.
