I see she's being given yet another huge promotion on Pt.com.
It makes me wonder how the other Eel Pie signings feel about this. If I were in their position I'd be more than a little p****d off with this nepotism.

Did I missed something or am I blind? Can't find anything new about her on the site.

Silly me. Got my dates wrong! It's in the news section, but it's old news now. I forgot how occasionally that section is updated so saw it at the top and assumed it was a new entry.
Still, doesnt change the fact that no other artiste on Eel Pie gets such preferential treatment and high profile promotion on both the PT website AND 'WhoTV'.

Maybe the other artists on Eel Pie don't have a new product that needs promoting at the moment. I'm sure we'll hear more about them in time.

Did anyone notice that Pete has signed his daughter Emma? We may see some promotion for her soon.

Yep, saw it already. I'm curious about her next album.

I can understand him promoting them through Eel Pie.
Just as long as he can understand why I'm not really interested. I'll have a listen, but I ain't buying something just because of a PT connection.

I can understand him promoting them through Eel Pie. Well I can, but at the same time I can't. It's his bird, so he's going out of his way to get her the highest free promotion possible. However, I think if I were in his position I'd be rather more subtle. He has enough money and business contacts to be able to help strongly promote her career without needing to shove it down the throats of his fan's. And if I were one of the other artistes signed to Eel Pie, I'd certainly be voicing my opinons about my lack of promotion on the PT site. It all just seems somewhat unprincipled.

Chances are, though, that I'll buy her album anyway providing 1. It's on vinyl and 2. It's any good
Maybe I wont get it then! ;D

Why didn't Pete get Simon a 6 figure deal with Universal? He's certainly paid his dues.
