The Mega-Zine Museum

ALYSIUM are no more. Owen went to Uni leaving the other two in the lurch. So much for fame and fortune. That's life!
THE HOMO is on the look-out for culture vultures - 'zinesters who read Maupin and listen to Beethoven. A long, long wait looks to be in store.
EVAN'S FAVOURITE T says the only good Brit bands are old ones. Will this tedious musical debate ever end?
THE HEAVENLY NOBODY asks Boo Radley's,
who sang "C'mon Kids" on their last
SINGLE, WHERE DO THEY WANT US TO GO?
TO BEZ'S WORKING TROUSERS
Why didn't you stay away? I pity those who wept for you - allegedly!
I hate your over-sized ego and the Kula Shaker comment. You are a sad child if you condemn their music because you have a problem with financial wealth deciding to produce good music.
Since when have bands had to be working class geezers? Get a life. Sorry, I forgot, that's probably too much to ask a pair of trousers.

Hitting the sarky notes, are we?
A COOL SHAKER OF A REPLY!
DEAR CRAZY LEMON
You can rest assured that you are not the only girl who is serious about Formula 1.
I also happen to be madly in love with Michael Schumacher, but had been following the sport for a long time before I noticed just how gorgeous those eyes and that accent are.
I hope that one day boys will wake up to the facts and realise that girls can know just as much about cars and be just as serious about motorsport as them.

You were all quiet during the season
STUCK IN A PIT STOP PERHAPS!
GOOD THINGS ABOUT BEING SMALL
- Boys want to "protect" you.
- You can pay less for things like bus fares, shoes, etc.
- You can get around people just because you're cute, especially in crowds.
- You can use the "just 'cause I'm small doesn't mean I'm not 18" line on club bouncers.

Or you can say: "I'll only take up a
SMALL SPACE ON 442, PRINT MY LETTER!"
DEAR THE BIG CHEESE
Well, I'm also in a band. A simple description is that I'm the effervescent drummer in the hottest new three-piece around.
We were a four-piece, but our lead guitarist and singer had a fight and the lead guitarist walked out.
Anyway, we've been going about six months and still can't think of a proper name. Any ideas?

DEAR IRON LION
I agree with you that Paul Merton and the other guy you mentioned are very funny, but if they were the only thing on TV they would run out of funny things to say and do.
This would cause them to have nervous breakdowns and maybe shoot themselves, leaving us with people like Bernard Manning for entertainment. ARRRGGGHHH!
Quacker, a demented duck
Surely Iron Lion would count as being
ANOTHER FUNNY GUY ON TV? MAYBE NOT...
