The Mega-Zine Museum

IRON LION has a joke. What's the capital in France? F. Tragic.

BONTEMPI GIRL is appalled I thought a mongoose was a bird. How can you doubt my knowledge? It's a kind of green hairy berry that's good in crumbles, silly.

NOONIE is inviting Nancy Boy to a Placebo gig. He has a spare backstage pass. What fun - sitting in a grotty dressing room being self-conscious.

IS MAD

DAHLING PEOPLE

It really bugs me when there's an old woman or a six-year-old in the ticket collector's booth at tube stations because they're lost or whatever AND PEOPLE SHOW THEM THEIR TICKETS.

The old woman's going, "No, no, no. I don't want to see your tickets," but they just keep on showing them.

PS Israel's Son, you think Liam G looks like a tramp. D'you think Kurt Cobain was always immaculately groomed?

Must say, I'VE never seen that. Just

BORED-LOOKING STAFF.

DEAR 'ZINE

Why are there so many new national days and weeks appearing, like National Bad Back Week or National Poetry Day?

AWARENESS ABOUT THINGS. GEDDIT?

VIDEO REVIEW - REM ROAD MOVIE

Wow! Where do I start? It brings back memories of that hot July day at the Huddersfield McAlpine stadium.

It has all the wonderfulness of Tourfilm and IT'S IN COLOUR. What more could a girl want?

Michael looks hot (in both ways), the eyeliner rules (on Stipe, not the song), Losing My Religion gets an enormous cheer, Mikey Mills sparkles in his suits, Bill doesn't collapse, and Peter... well, Peter rocks!

Binky the doormat

So, is it safe to say you enjoyed it?

THE VENUE COULD BE MORE GLAM THOUGH

BANDS WHICH ARE STEREOTYPED:

Oi! Music journos! Quit stereotyping these bands! Don't you fink they're slightly fed up wiv it? I would be.

DEAR Y'ALL

This is the first letter from a spankin new 'ziner.

Respect to all people with long sideburns, and it doesn't matter how fat or thin you are.
