IS THE 'ZINE YOUR FAVE OF THE 90s?
DEAR 'ZINE,
I am truly embarrassed. I too consider myself a big Take That fan, but I'm not naive and stupid enough to think that EVERYTHING they do is fantastic.
It's true, the Love Ain't Here Anymore video stinks!
I'd like to assure the people out there that not all Thatters are as sad and narrow-minded as the "true fan" from East Kilbride.
The Non-permed One
Good to know...
NOT ALL THATTERS HAVE BLIND FAITH
TO ALL 'ZINE READERS ON EARTH
As a visitor to your grimy little planet, I have been witness to a strange phenomenon known as The 'Zine.
Being an interplanetary surgeon, I have devised a simple solution to your strange pop music quandary which would also benefit medical science.
Merge four teeny-bopper bands and hey presto:
TAKE 17 BOYS APART
Simple, beneficial surgery!
Doc Warspeed, Zzzzzz
Thanks for that, Doc!
DISMEMBERED BAND MEMBERS! URGH!

THINK GLOBALLY, ACT LOCALLY!
DEAR 'ZINE,
Dance isn't dead. Dance is the only way forward, as rock n' roll, the dance music of its day, has proved.
Techno does NOT sound like a car alarm, can be performed live just as well as any band and displays an enormous range of emotions.
Listen to Orbital, the Dust Brothers and Underworld for proof.
God, if only you knew.
The Evil Sherpa, Snivilisation
We do. We won't. Thankyou.
