Contact Any Celebrity.com, anyone use them?

In researching trying to find publicists for artists, I found this website http://www.contactanycelebrity.com. The advertise that they have Industry Contacts ie: managers, publicists etc.... for just about any artist, and if you don't see them on the list just email them and they will get it for you. Has anyone ever heard of them or use them? They charge $30/month or $300/year and give a 7-day trial for only $1. I would like to hear if anyone has used them and had success or is it just another scam?

Judas Priest publicity contact?

I have credentials to shoot the opener (Testament) but haven't had any luck finding a contact for Judas Priest. The Seattle date on July 23rd is going to be the first date of the US tour so it's a good opportunity. My contact at Testament's label is usually really good about hooking me up with contacts for the other bands but she had no idea who was representing Judas Priest. Any help would be appreciated. Cheers!

Does anyone have US publicity contacts for Dream Theater and Opeth?

When the bands were on their previous labels I had no problems getting credentials to shoot these bands. Now that they are on Roadrunner I haven’t had any luck getting any response from my inquiries to Roadrunner's generic contacts, perhaps because I am a freelancer that shoots for a couple of smaller webzines. Does anyone have any non-label publicity or other contacts for these bands that I can try out? Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Just a suggestion

Just a suggestion,
If you are going to post contacts please post the DATE of when the contact was last valid or verified as working.

Ministry tour publicist for the upcoming C U Latour

This is allegedly their final tour so I expect them to pull out all the stops for some incredible photo ops. I'll be doing the Seattle leg.

Contacts Forum - Read me

Welcome to the Contacts forum! This forum is only viewable by "Premium" members of MusicPhotographers.net. If you can see this, then you're one of them!

Many of us have put a fair amount of work into tracking down various types of contacts (publicity, etc), getting in touch with them, establishing rapport, etc. We need to protect these resources from freetographers (term created by me! woohoo!), name-droppers, potential FWC's, etc.

The Premium members of MusicPhotographers.net are pre-screened inner-circle photogs that most of you already have some sort of relationship with.
