Blog Party

Due to recent disappointments, WebsterGotts decided that they needed to cheer themselves up. Just the other day they realised that this very blog was 1 year old in April! They were so busy feeling sorry for themselves that they stupidly let this landmark occasion pass them by without a momentous celebration.

This mistake has been put right. WebsterGotts have heroically picked themselves up, dusted themselves down, and, despite their current poverty, partied hard.

Here is a video of this stylish and dignified blog party.

Woe Is WebsterGotts

Once again WebsterGotts' hopes and dreams have been shattered- this time in a particularly mean fashion.

WebsterGotts are currently leading a life of poverty, they have no money or food, and this is the reason for their recent lack of activity.

For a short time there appeared to be a light at the end of the tunnel, as a group called Centrifuge offered a possibility of funding for WebsterGotts to make a new video. With this money, they could have eaten, clothed themselves and maybe even afforded a studio. Certainly, it would have allowed them to make some more truly great art work.

But at the eleventh hour, this flickering glimmer of hope was cruelly extinguished. The money will now go to other, more privileged artists who wish to continue jetsetting and pretending to make art work.

Below is the appeal video that WebsterGotts sent to Centrifuge. See if you could bear the guilt of not making a donation to them. Unless of course (like the Centrifuge group), you think they are just not good enough to get funding.





Sadly, everything in this video is actually true. WebsterGotts do indeed use a cupboard as a studio, they have terrible part-time jobs, and cannot afford coffee.

To top things off, Centrifuge would still like WebsterGotts to contribute to a publication. For free. What do YOU think they should do?
