Film School with Curtis Dewar

It's always nice to check in with Curtis Dewar of Dewar PR.

If you're metal and looking to make a splash, he's your dude.

1. What's the first movie you remember seeing as a child?

E.T. I remember going to that movie like 6 or 7 times. 

As a result of watching it I developed an unhealthy addiction to Reese's pieces for a long time

2. When I was little, my parents didn't give a damn about what I saw when I was little, so it wasn't until I was about 12 that my folks told me to turn a movie off. What's the first one you were told you couldn't see/finish?

POLTERGEIST. 

Meowtal with Curtis Dewar of Dewar PR

Sometimes, it's time to start up a new column featuring my whimsical silliness. Today's the day!

We've all seen the hundreds upon thousands of metal guys with their kitty cats. The internet is full of kitties all over the place.

So, because of that, it seems like we should be talking about cats here on Glacially Musical. 

Today, we're talking to Curtis Dewar of Dewar PR. If you're looking for metal/hard rock/punk whatever PR, he's your guy.

Let's talk cats now.

1. In my house, we have three cats named Wickett, Louis IX, and Randall "Pink" Floyd. How many do you have and what are they called?

Man, your house must fucking STINK with that many cats!

I have one cat and her name is Ladybug. She's fucking adorable but also a bit of a jerk at times (Like most cats).

Hair Today Gone Tomorrow with Curtis Dewar of Dewar PR

 It's time for a brand new column!

Once there was a time when hairspray, spandex, and songs about wholly inappropriate things ruled the world. Call it glam metal, hair metal, our Sunset Strip Rock. The name really isn't all that critical if you ask me.

What is critical is how it totally embodied the 1980's. Cocaine, money, and cheap sexy time. 

We are nearly 40 years out from when it hit the market after Quiet Riot's Metal Health broke causing all of these bands to crush it.

So, let's reach out and find what the current bands these days think of those times. For many of them, these bands are like Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath were to me in the 90's, amazing bands of yesteryear that don't precisely exist anymore.

We're starting this one off with publicist extraordinaire, Curtis Dewar of Dewar PR. If you're a band looking to get folks, like myself, talking and writing about you. Hit him up HERE.

But now, tease your hair and slip back into those leopard print tight pants.

Brand New Column! 

The recurring column interviews are some of the most fun for me because we get to learn about the insides of our subjects and see more about them than just dude plays riffages!

The albums reviewed here are written, recorded, and performed by human beings who have lives and fears and what nots.

So I attempt to encourage you to get to know the human beings behind the corpse paint and Flying V guitars.

To kick off the Book Column, we're starting off with Curtis Shawn Dewar, of Dewar PR. If you want to hear about cool music or if you're a band check the man's FACEBOOK.

1. I try to read at least two books per month, and mostly fail, what's your goal and reality?

I try to do a book a week but usually average 2-3 per month including audio books. If we're talking *just* reading the book and not listening average goes way lower.

Guest Post: This Is Why To PR by Curtis Dewar

I’ve had several bands tell me that there really is no point in having a PR and that they can do it all themselves. While DIY is an admirable quality and definitely cheaper, there are some things to consider when choosing between hiring a PR and doing it yourself.

Keep these in mind:

-A PR already has a list of magazines, websites and journalists
