The Hidden book and record store often has some free zines.

Primarily the work of one Derek Byrne, no longer resident in this parish - although he does read this board.

when I get back (next year) I'll start something up back home again... currently half-finished one in Auckland (and christ, if you thought Dublin was bad for lack of fanzines..), dont know if I'll get it out soon though, being very lazy and very broke...

"Primarily the work of one Derek Byrne"

possibly to the dance scene .. .

just a guess .. im sure im terribly wrong .

When thumped.com got taken down by its host for overloading the server, I think all the files got lost (Pete?). I still have all the old issues, but they are on a CD-R at home, and I am in New Zealand.

 

[admin]

that's about right

they more or less changed the locks while i was down the pub and refused to let me back in unless i paid up for dedicated hosting

which wasn't likely

I wouldn't mind doing a zine for women...
