Hi ****,I am writing from *******'s PR agency and as part of our work withthe VX Collective - a collaboration of the hottest talent around fromdifferent professions - we have teamed up with Sam B*****, nominee fordesigner of the year last year, to create a new state of the art coathanger.
It is a unique design concept, not easily identifiable as a coathangar and it can be used in two different forms, both open andclosed. The idea behind it is that it can be used in the home as wellas on the road, so that you can travel in style. Not only does it hangclothes, but also all your accessories, such as keys, watch, cufflinksand jewellery ensuring that you keep all your items together for thatbig night out. It's available in two different colours, Yves Kleinblue and golden, retails at £19.99 and would make a great gift forChristmas. With this in mind, we thought that you may be interested inreviewing the product in your publication.
I have pasted a press release and attached couple of photosdemonstrating how it works. If you would like any more information,then please do not hesitate to contact me on my number below.Kind regards****

Aesthetically pleasing on theeye in both forms, the hanger will stand out for its clever and uniquedesign.

But still, we're all missing the fact that this hanger can be used in TWO DIFFERENT FORMS! Open and closed! Imagine!

'CONCERNED' PARENTS ATTACK CONVICTED ARMED ROBBER FOR CONTROVERSIAL LYRICS
While serving time in multiple Wisconsin State prisons for the Robbery and Kidnapping of a City of Milwaukee detectives daughter, Newt Turner, CEO of G Livin Entertainment, designed the blueprint for an entertainment company called, "G-Livin" – which is known for its' empowering and inspirational ideology. But now his movement has been widely criticized by music executives, critics, religious organizations and parents for its' graphic and violent subject matter.
He says, " I feel like if majority of Americans can accept these pedophile Catholic priests molesting and raping their children, then I should be able to heal those emotional scars through my music and literature, without censorship issues."
A mother of four from Raleigh, North Carolina – who asked to remain anonymous said, "The song, "TeenAnger" and the video should be banned from television, radio and stores. If the government allows him to release that music, then he should be liable for any violence children may commit after listening to it."
"These whacked out parents don't understand the mentalities and the emotional needs of their own children, said Newt. They don't take the necessary time to learn about what they created. There are reasons why kids go to school and shoot everybody up. There was a reason my homegirl blew her head off her shoulders. There is a reason why a three year old girl starts crying when you leave her alone with her grandfather. I am just giving you the reasons why."
"I don't care what people may say or think about who I am, what I am or what I am about. I refuse to let the opinions and comments of others deter me from my mission and vision. I'm always gonna stand up for what I believe in, even if I'm the only one standing"
Time Waits For No One: The First Gospel is a graphic and terrifying entry gate into a world we have never seen in music or literature. It's a world of child abuse, sex, betrayal, ambitious lust, violence, revenge and the imprisonment of mind body and soul.
It is scheduled to be released the fall of 2008.

PHIL COOL
Wheres Phil Cool been?. Well ! Phil Cool still is alive and well and is living in deepest Lancashire .
So, why have you not seen Phil on television for so long?.
Well hes no good at gardening or decorating, he cant cook and doesnt do D.I.Y., so what chance does he stand.
Look! dump your T.V in the nearest skip and get out to the theatre to see Phil because hell be out and about in the U.K doing what he does best live shows.
After watching the current Phil Cool show you wont realise that two hours has flown by, because you will have been spellbound by a rich diversity of his original material delivered in Phils unique style.
If the deadly accurate impressions of President Bush and the retired Tony Blair dont get you, then the crazy stories from his own experience will . It could be one of the weird characters that only inhabit Phil Cools mind that has you in stitches, or perhaps , Winston Churchills scathing opinion of todays yoof that may finish you off
Well, no doubt youll all have your favourites, Phils happens to be his
Paul Mc Cartney explaining the troubles hes had with a certain blonde woman in I dont care too much for money, but that much cash just isnt funny.
Phil has been performing stand up for over thirty years and is still comparable to no-one.
So do yourself a favour and go and see this legendary cult figure in his prime.

Found because I was curious who these guys were after seeing them in the upcoming list for a venue:
When a pair of intelligent, visionary emcees joins forces with a battle-hardened, groove-fusing rhythm section, a classically trained violist, and a jazz trumpet player, the result is a sound that explores and expands the frontiers of live hip-hop. Progressive in both style and message, the band's ability to drop from symphonic rock-infused crescendos into stripped-down string-laden breakbeats has earned Flobots a reputation for both originality and authenticity.
After originally forming as a side project in 2005, Flobots brought together Emcees Jonny 5 and Brer Rabbit with violist Mackenzie Roberts, guitarist Andy Guerrero, bassist Jesse Walker, trumpet player Joe Ferrone, and drummer Kenny Ortiz. By the end of the year, it was clear that the band's refreshingly positive message and nontraditional instrumentation gave it both a universal appeal and a marketable buzz factor. Whether sharing the stage with jam bands, indie rock acts, or hip-hop groups, Flobots connected with audiences and quickly reached a tipping point to became one of Denver's most influential bands.
Now, three years from the birth of their first song, the band regularly sells out Colorado venues and is developing followings across the country.
After selling over 3000 copies of their first recording, Platypus (October 2005), the band released its first full-length record, Fight With Tools (October 2007). Representing a year's worth of writing and recording, the record is a fire-breathing rallying cry for all free-thinking individuals fed-up with the violence and apathy that have thus far defined the new millenium. The record debuted at #1 on Twist and Shout's best seller list.
The strength of these records and a relentless performing schedule has enabled the band to open for acts like Public Enemy, The Coup, Lyrics Born, and Immortal Technique. Even Multi-platinum recording artist The Fray took notice, inviting the band to open the last night of their North American Tour at Red Rocks Amphitheatre.
Armed with musicianship, intelligence, and an ingrained sense of rebellion, Flobots are looking to engage a new musical culture, one mind at a time.

Note that this was under the "Bio" section on their site
When a pair of intelligent, visionary emcees joins forces with a battle-hardened, groove-fusing rhythm section, a classically trained violist, and a jazz trumpet player, it's pretty hard to find anything salvageable to write a decent press release about.

It's quite hard to describe in a press release how cool this campaign is so I've blogged on it

About to ship out an MP3 to some blogs and was wondering how my press release sounds. Please note some names have been changed in an attempt to remain anonymous.
---
Hailing from an unlikely source – Cleveland, Ohio – comes something dreamy, retro, danceable and pop.
Had Hall & Oates ever discovered Chillwave and gave it a hi-fi makeover, it’d probably sound like B** S****, aka multi-instrumentalist and music journalist J***** P**. An admirer of 1980s Sophisti-pop, Post-punk and R&B, P** combines these opposing influences to create a catchy, glossy sound that fits neatly between DFA Records’ Holy Ghost and Hail Social (now known as Memory Tapes).
Themes of science fiction, suburban isolation and love abound in lyrics backed by guitar reverb, warm electric pianos and disco beats. Recorded entirely in P**'s apartment, the music of B** S**** isn’t so much steeped in nostalgia, but rather harkens back to a time when interesting and compelling melodies still mattered – not the performer behind them.
“How Do You Do” is the first single off the upcoming EP F*** Y** due out Spring 2010.

I think what this press release needs is to incorporate some of the words from this thread.
