Why all the fuss? River Phoenix dies and you ask why all fuss?
So he was wrong to take drugs - that doesn't mean his life was worth nothing. If a friend/relative of yours died from taking drugs, you wouldn't want people to ask "why all the fuss?"
River Phoenix was a very talented actor and personally, I think people have forgotten too quickly.

LIVE REVIEW: ELASTICA and PULP at PORTSMOUTH WEDGEWOOD ROOMS
This was one of the best gigs I've ever been to. Both groups are excellent live. Elastica's strong punk vocals and guitar were brilliant.
Apart from the bad start, Pulp were just as good. With a mix of old and new songs, everyone was soon getting into the music.
I'll definitely be going next time.

Well, er - what else could s/he say?
DEAR MEGA-ZINE,
There's a lot of Metal v TT or Goth v Rave-type debates in the 'Zine, but surely these are all just different forms of over-hyped, white boy corporate pop?!
Real innovation and expression tends to be found in the likes of jazz, blues, Latin, African, R&B, gospel, Gaelic and some hip-hop.

CD REVIEW: ALL RE-RELEASED SMITHS CDs
To say these are the best seven albums released this year would be a lie - they are the best seven albums ever!!
If you were too young to appreciate them the first time around, then buy them now!!
With songs like How Soon Is Now and Ask, you will discover a new level of musical excellence. Trust me.
Dead Disco Dancer
Reckon they're a bit of all right, eh?
WE'RE MORE POPULAR THAN THE SMITHS!!
