P-ARGH! – A Press Release Too Far?
Obviously all musicians want to generate attention for themselves, but with companies charging artists for their PR services are a lot of young, perhaps naive, people finding themselves duped into something that could ultimately do more harm to their popularity than good? Is there actually such a thing as bad publicity? Has anyone out there paid for PR and been utterly fleeced?

Oh, I also love http://www.shutupbands.com for the pick of the worst PR
once, a PR agent for a band I sorta knew, sent me multiple releases regarding their upcoming single
where he repeatedly said the single was produced by someone who had worked with Enter Shakira.
There's that
infamous DJ/Rupture story about his UK PR.
