Description

"Jitterati" cartoon strip. Shows Jaimee at Fidel's Cafe in Cuba Street, wearing the New Zealand Music Month t-shirt. She says that she is wearing the t-shirt to commemorate the generations of New Zealand musicians who were spurned by radio, struggled to develop an original sound only to see it bleached away by a new wave of attractive mediocrities. Adding that New Zealand artists from other less glamarous fields also deserve uncritical respect and nationalistic adulation that musicans now take for granted. Debbie suggests that Jaimee is referring to poets.

Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
