as someone whos done this zine and d.i.y.self publishing kind of thing before,yes your advise and help would be very helpfull bianca.i was also wondering if you might want to contribute some oldschcool reviews,of great local gigs held here in brisbane and gold coast over the years(afi,bouncing souls,rcr).plus maybe some new punk album releases reviews and even some of your famous interviews to help promote your conversations book.im sure every zine reading punk would love to hear about ian mckay or henry rollins,etc.was also thinking of asking ollie x bones to contribute some of his live gig b&w photos(tiger army,just say go!).sorry for bugging you and writting all this on your blog page.if you would like to write/contact me my email address is…. dutchie_4226@yahoo.com ….
i left beautifull burleigh heads 3 years ago and have been living in sunnybank for 2 years and now in logan for 1 year.trying to move closer to brisbane.let me know if you would like to catch up and ill see if i can make it!im currently working 2 jobs,so have to do it on a day off or beforehand.cheers mate.

Dave – Now I’m really, really looking forward to it! Sounds like you have some great ideas and content! Content is king as far as I’m concerned there’s so much bullshit/lazy writing out there. If you need any help, advice etc let me know I ALWAYS enjoy working with people who are making something worthwhile (which is very much what your zine sounds like to me!) Are you still on the GC? Coffee catch-ups perhaps?

cheers bianca,im still working on my zine.was hoping to have it ready by december last year,but finances and lifestyle situations changed so now aiming for mid year june/july release.and yes you will have one of my first zines to read,your streetpress gig reviews and appreciation for underground arts cultures have helped inspire my need to also contribute to the local punk scene.my zine will be a very cartoony and cut and paste colour print,think juxtapoz meets zap comix meets punk(legs mcneil and john holstrom)zine meets mambo meets pee zine and thats what im trying to create.still a long way off from where i want to be but drawing every day and jotting down any ideas.i still have to look into the printing costs and copywright my drawings and protecting my designs,but cant wait to get them out there to an appreciating audience.cheers.

David – Thanks for the feedback! I totally remember you! It’s awesome you’ve been working on your own zine, I really look forward to reading it. The zine scene around these parts has been pretty small of late. What kind of zine is it? Any idea when it’ll be available to purchase? Make sure you let me know would love to get a copy :)
