August 29, 2014, 10 years ago
Catherine Sarah Holmes, the wife and manager of former W.A.S.P. guitarist Chris Holmes, has posted the following update regarding the release of Holmes' upcoming second solo album, titled Shitting Bricks.
We used the services of priority mail in Finland for send Chris recording rack in France.
The rack never arrived in there and I even not sure the rack left Finland, the 3 other boxes with clothes in them yes... but not the rack .
Result of this uncompetence we paid for:
2 months with impossibility to work and finish the album.
The Post mail in Finland apologized and said they are really sorry for our loss and proposed us to pay back 531 euros for the value of the rack when the value written on the receipt is more than 5000.
When we posted they assured us that it will be safe and we didn't have to be worry but by the Finnish law we couldn't put a amount more than 5000 even if the equipment was worth more than that.
Why ask the value if it is for screw people no matter what?
Today Chris lost all his equipment for recording, I have to come back on my word to you to release the album end of September and this really pissed me off.
We are working right now for find the best way at least give you this album before the end of the year... This is going cost us a lot of money and I will not accept without saying nothing and pay the price for the uncompetence of people who even don't care about the consequences of their actions."
