New Zealand may indeed be paradise on earth but in any paradise you'll find a snake or two. Like Brian Tamaki our very own Kiwi fundamentalist Christian with his right wing church of Destiny. Or The Church of Density. They marched recently in Christchuch, all matching outfits and right armed salutes. The most sickening thing was that they'd even dragged their kids along. When one moppet was asked why they were there they sheepishly admitted "I don't know" before being ushered away.
A Kiwi muso (lets just call him anon) has made a track called 'The Oneness of Brian Tamaki and Beelzebub'. It's a classic piece of satire, and therefore perfectly legal. One of the big commercial radio stations bottled out of playing it, in case they were contacted by Tamaki's lawyers. So in steps the Mistress. She's been playing it on her Resurrection Breakfast shows and it's kicking off a right wing storm with some classic comments at her blog.
Why is it that right wing fundies:
a. can't spell
b. always resort to threats and personal insults
"I am disgusted that radio would play this rubbish. But what would one expect from someone called 'Mistress Dirtbag'? You and Anon and his slut fan can burn in hell."
Mmmm. Toasty. I think I may be the slut fan being referred to which is ironic, as I've been happily married to Chelfyn for nearly 5 years.
The thing that is really bringing the crazies out of the woodwork is the current debate on the civil unions bill. New Zealand is proposing to let same sex couples be 'unioned' in the eyes of the law. I think it should go to a referendum. Too many politicians let their personal faith get in the way of representing their electorate. Paul Adams, a New Zealand politician is actually on hunger strike for the next month so that God will prevent it. For real. At least in New Zealand it's unlikely the votes will be rigged.
Update: The Oneness of Brian Tamaki and Beelzebub is now available to buy online from TMet Recordings
Listen to an interview with Anon the artist behind The Oneness of Brian Tamaki and Beelzebub (3.5 MB).
So MsB...is Mistress Dirtbag's show the only place to hear Anon's music or does Twisted play it at other times? Where did you find him? Is it really one person? When is the showdown between you, Dirtbag, Anon, and Tamaki? Help, I'm curious this needs to go further....
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if it's in the Twisted playlist but MissD is still playing it on her Resurrection Breakfast shows (weekdays 8 - 10am on twisted.co.nz). She came across anon through a friend of a friend and he is a solo artist. As for a showdown I'm sure the Mistress would be delighted if Mr Tamaki would guest on her show!
