Hope they're not doing any Bill Conti music.

bad news for show video tapers- just found out Joly's account on youtube has been suspended. if they can suspend Joly, they can suspend anyone. I wonder who fucked him over...

Richard Hell. full story is on Joly's facebook. Most pathetic bullshit in a long long time....

"Sorry to say the punkcast YouTube account is currently suspended.
As you may know it contains around 700 clips, mainly of the NYC music scene,
but also of local internet related events including public hearings of the NYC Council's
Committee on Technology in Government. It has had approaching 3 million views.
YouTube has a policy of suspending accounts of repeat copyright offenders
and I just got my 3rd strike.
Almost laughably it was a DMCA takedown from Richard Hell over some
footage I shot of him talking about his next record at a book signing a couple of
weeks back. I plonked a mic in front of him and told him I was shooting for webcast,
The clip was of conversation as I waited for him to start reading.
He didn't say anything in particular beyond what went out in his recent press release about
the record i.e. it's redubbed version of an old record that he wasn't happy with. I posted
it with a link to his pr. Thought I was being helpful. I'd earlier posted a similar clip of him
reading from his new book, and his co-author even posted it on his blog.
I've filed a counter-notice and, if and when the account get's re-instated I'll remove the clip.
I'd had two previous DMCA's recently, collateral damage in YouTube's ongoing war with
Warner's and Viacom, both on song publishing.
Hot Stuff - Von Iva - Warners
Let's Make Love and Listen to Death From Above - Cansei der sei Sexy - Viacom
I didn't contest these, altho I did have casual permission from the band who are
the composers on the latter.
On the second occasion YT made me check off that I understood copyright.
In the one other case where infringement was found through YouTube audio matching - a clip of K8 Hardy karaokeing Joan Armatrading - the record label
allowed it to sit while they collected revenue from ads displayed on the page.
I have, in the past, removed clips by request of musicians not happy with their performance
as a matter of course. Normally they just contact me through YouTube and ask.
I appreciate the irony of the DIY site punkcast being taken down by arguably the originator of punk style using entirely establishment means.

I saw that video of Richard Hell talking that Joly is talking about. I don't see how they have any sort of legal standing to force Joly to take it down. Kind of unbelievable all those great clips got taken down because of this. Shame on you Richard Hell.

i seriously doubt it's Richard Hell, probably some entity that represents him, or the album he was talking about..
if it is richard hell that's a shame, he's one of my favorite writers ever...
Posted by Anonymous | July 17, 2009 9:29 AM
seriously. what difference does it make whether it was him or someone representing him? it is a bunch of bollocks, especially since this shouldn't even be relevant in terms of copyright infringements. hell talked about his book. since when is there a copyright on old schmoos babbling?

anyone see Ducktails?? I had to leave early...
