I thought everyone here might get a kick out of this.
The following is clipped from a posting I just wrote in a thread on my tribe about my piping.
I recently emailed BCampbell using the "business" and not the "fan" email address on his URL to ask about using clips from EDI&II and AOD on a track on the album I'm current working to record (of myself piping). This morning I got the following reply back.
Of course, this doesn't mean my life is greater than it was at the crack of dawn, that I'm better than anyone else, or that I get neat stuff like dehydrated cats or something... but I thought y'all might get a kick out of seeing this. So now we know where Mr.Bruce is right now and that he's got more work on the way for us fans of his work. Anyway, w/o further adue...

PS: I got a response to an email I recently sent to Bruce Campbell in regards to getting legal permission to use some sound bites from two or three of the films he's been in on one of the tracks on my album -- Evil Dead I & II, and Army Of Darkness. No, I am not joking about any of this. Here's what I got back...

Don,
Hello there. Sounds like a fun project, but I really can't help you - I'm in Bulgaria working on 2 flicks, and the rights issue is too convoluted - my recommedation is to skip it.
Regards,
Bruce

I hope he meant that about the sound bites and not the "fun project" itself. *snicker* I'll try to fill everyone in on the rest of the details later about this, and what I'm going to probably do now in place of these audio samples I was going to use. Oh well... I'll probably still send him a copy of the finished work -- what the heck!

Re: Email from THE MAN
Sun, May 16, 2004 - 2:44 PMHe might mean that you might need to go through a publishing company to get the rights to use the dialog from the movies. I know some celebs and such want to get royalties from every little thing. I forget the exact "letter of the law" on this subject though since it's been many years since I had to deal with such things with my band and a song that we wanted to use a sample of "Let's get ready to RUMBLE" from that wrestling/boxing dude... But there was something about not having to pay for it's use under some special circumstance, which I can't remember.
