would you believe I was trying to get one ready for the STAATHAAT gig? Not sure I'll be ready, but fingers crossed..

I've done a couple (Hangover Times, Pseudozine and Noiseletters). Mostly for Galway gigs but a few have made their way around the country....I'm planning a new one called 'Satanic Device'. Did I come up with that myself or subliminally rob it off someone?

They're a lot easier to do than zines.....


What with bands not returning interviews and holding up the show...Eoddy...cough....

Just as more of a technical/factual point than a political one, Workers Solidarity by the WSM is technically a freesheet and they do a run of about 10,000 every two months AFAIK. I'm sure that's nothing compared to the Metro or Herald AM though.

Um, but its not really along the lines of what byrneos is looking for. Still though, delivered door to door and with a smart design - its quite a gem. Punx should start doing door to door distro for their zines.

Yeah, it's all about being as sporadic and inconsistent as possible.

There was a really nice freesheet about two years ago that was basically a minor scene report on copenhagen using a lot of the artwork from bite the hand, I think Cormy might have even been involved with that. (?) Something simple and that makes sense from a punk/scene perspective.

I'm sorry. You don't have the right to moan unless you write about it in a zine.!bog

these so-called 'zinesters' have a lot to learn from the likes of roisin ingle, gary bushell, or that woman in the dubliner who'd rather have cervical cancer than let a big black doctor called moses examine her private area. imagine the loss to the public if these giants of journalism were confined to low-profile, low-circulation publications.
