That made me laugh. Good line.

Calling all patrons of vandalism as an artform, by thebleedingedge on May 31, 2008 0:07:05 GMT 1, Hey, Sorry for taking so long, I have been responding to all PM's one after the other and it's taking longer than I expected. I have gotten offers, the one that seemed the most concrete was someone with cans (fresh Belton too), I asked about the colours, they don't all match the piece above but was told the cans were not being used regardless and were cool enough to say I can take them off their hands as long as I don't do something s**t with them, so even if this piece never see's the light of day, I get to put some of my other stuff up (and I'll find some way to make it worth it to that person who insisted they didn't want anything in return).
The deal hasn't been closed, but I am talking to people, I wasn't intending for this to be some sort of auction so I will be honest and say I don't know which is more unfair, me waiting for offers that may or may not materialize or me just saying the first person/group to stick paint in my hands gets it, so I have answered those PM's and told people to think about it (so they don't get caught in that hype machine madness, just wanting to get something to get something), so I will have to see if anyone comes back to me.
As it stands right now, I still can't put up that piece.. but it does look like in a week or two I might be able to make a custom work around those Belton colours (again, thank you, you know who you are, I'll find some very cool way to repay you, trust that).
Didn't understand this either "but if you are willing to meet me in East London, it's doable."
RomanyWG: That was directed at JA who asked if I would be willing to meet somewhere in East London rather than WU, and the answer is yes. Infact the answer is yes to any method that gets me paint and doesnt bait me up. Also whilst I appreciate your offer, I have to decline as my height, race, gender etc are as much apart of my identity as my face, besides, I don't want people to know how it got up.
Let me just explain something to everyone.... the piece is getting done, I will do whatever it takes so if nothing pans out here, it won't stop me but if you think it's cool to play a part, then let's do it but realise I have no time to waste.
All of you seem like really cool people to even consider taking a leap of faith in this day and age, so even if I disagree with you in the future, I can't really fault you as people.

Good luck with it bleedingedge. I'm very excited by the concept and hope that this forum will be more than critique / bitch space for once!

Calling all patrons of vandalism as an artform, by gtf on May 31, 2008 0:55:13 GMT 1, Keep your money Romanywg I'm due you a favour for helping me out on another matter I'll front the £80 and if romanywg can film you, that would be sweet.
Either PM me the shopping list (would need a delivery address so maybe not good for the old anonomity) or Western Union details. Will sort out tomorrow am.
I'm not interested in the copyright or any commercial rights, and as for the canvases they can be auctioned for charity. Not after anything for myself, just happy to help out someone out do something that sounds worthwhile.
BTW you don't know me, unless you were invovled north of the border a few years ago.
P.S. also happy to chip in as part of a forum thing but think it might be difficult to organise

Calling all patrons of vandalism as an artform, by thebleedingedge on May 31, 2008 5:12:36 GMT 1, Skelly I have a feeling you already have, whether you know it or not, but you will get a flick or some sort posted somewhere during the next week or so.
So as it stands I have 3 offers on the table, I sent everyone away to have a think, to make sure, because sometimes I get the feeling people are just about the hunt on this forum and I don't want any of that pressure selling rubbish just to get some cans of paint. It is now 5 in the morning, so the first person who can get me cans (or cash for cans) from now gets the canvases and related material. I would love to say I would hold out for whoever PM'd me first, but fact is I am on a mission and have no time to waste, plus let's face it, when you paint illegally in the streets of East London these days, you get promised the world by drunk people who don't even know what you do or represent, so put it down to Shoreditch experience. All those who expressed interest in helping should have a PM.
I got someone asking if they could better the best offer.... there is no best offer, I need £80 to get a work up, of that £80, £75 will be spent on paint, thats all there is too it. This isn't an auction, and if you have never read my words before, let me make it crystal clear: You could offer me £1000 and I wouldn't take it, I need £80 for paint so I asked for £80.
Some really cool people messaged me, people who seem to get it, so big ups to them. If you want me to mention your name here or write your name near the wall, let me know, I have no problems with that unless your name is something stupid like nike.
RomanyWG (and CCTV operators): if you can find me, you can film me, that seems fair.

Whoever you are you must be completley convinced of the power of this piece to have drummed up this amount of anticipation and hype. More power to you, fella. I wish you the best of luck and remember when the haters start criticising, 'you can't please all of the people all of the time'

Calling all patrons of vandalism as an artform, by thebleedingedge on May 31, 2008 14:57:09 GMT 1, I feed off hate grafter.
So let's recap, what happened? Nothing. People came messaging me with various promises, almost all of those people seemed to be interesting in baiting up my identity (I'm guessing for their own curiosity or for some behind the scenes forum kudos)... that's the way it goes I guess.
No I won't hit spots you insist on, I won't do your image, I am not a guerilla marketting tool and next time you ask yourself why the people you talk about on this forum can only talk with you under assumed identities, I think this proves why.
Some of you got back to me, thanks, some of you didn't, no worries but as it stands, piece still can't go up. Some of you did seem genuine and cool, some of you were blatantly trying to bait me up for some reason (and if you are doing that, playing with someones life blood just to be able to PM another forum member with a name or email address, then you are just a shit person, period).
Some guy is saying he will meet up with me today, right now, put the cash or cans in my hand, that guy also has no posts so I don't know if he is just someone fresh on the board or someone just trying to get a name.... if you want to help, then help, if you want a name, just ask for it (probably not going to tell you, but if you approached me as a nice cool person you'll probably get more out of me).
I'm replying to all the PM's regardless, still have 4 or so on the pile, but if anyone would like to help me get my piece up and get a little something for themselves, then please do.

Calling all patrons of vandalism as an artform, by voodooguru on May 31, 2008 15:08:54 GMT 1, That was me mate - that offered to put the cash in your hand. Yes, I'm very new on here - in fact this is my first post! I was just waiting for my newly bought 'collection' to turn up so I had something to talk about.
I was genuine - no hidden agenda, just thought it might be cool to help you out and if you turn into a Urban hero I can take some satisfaction that I helped in some small way.
Anyway - obviously today is out now - but my offer stands if you want my help. If not, no worries - good luck with your art.

The idea of a collective forum payment is great! Would be in if this was going ahead, aint interested in your identity, just want to see what you do and the reaction that follow's!!!!

I think that sums it up perfectly.
This could end up being awesome and we (listen to me; I've been here 5 minutes!!) could all feel a bit of pride by contributing encouragement, cash, cans whatever. Pretty cool really - great karma.
Hmmm - wonder if Banksy needs a few quid for cans...

It wasn't a case of me picking any better or worse deal, he was close and was willing to meet me soonest. Don't try send cash if you were going to, you can always send paint though
Peace
