The Mega-Zine Museum
November 4, 1996
THE NAMELESS ONE says happy birthday to anyone whose birthday it is. Hooray!
JAMIE BURGESS invites us to his home for a game of croquet. It's a bit nippy to be out in the garden innit?
ARTHUR RIMBAUD'S LOVER says Newcastle has a vee poor defence. Shouldn't you be in Morocco or sumat, communing with nature and riding with the bedouins?
ETERNALLY LOUISE says why does she feel fine on Friday, Sat and Sun and awful
on Monday? Dunno, but Monday is heart-
ATTACK DAY, AND THAT'S A FACT.
DEAR 'ZINE
Hola! I've just returned from Spain and it was brill! The beer was cheap and it was really hot. Sadly, my camera and films got misplaced.
Like Broken Circles', my band is between names. How about Superskunk or Neckwrench?
I could never think of names either.
Nancy Boy, finally home

DEAR ALABAMA STRAWBERRY (and C.K)
I am writing to let you know that I too study Latin, and I am familiar with the likes of Flavia, Cornelia, Marcus and Sextus, aka "The 4 Roman saddos".
Now I'm learning about new saddos called: "Quintus, Flaccus, Horatio and Scintilla."
So... "Flavia et Cornilia sedent, et zine legerent"
From Maes Cool (Miss)
PS. You didn't mention their slave Davus.
What do you expect
TO FIND HERE?

There once was a man who was a poet
who gave up one day and said 'blow it.'
'I've not got the time
to try and find a rhyme,
so I'll go write a story instead.'
Hope you like it.

Mildly amusing. Helped pass about half
A SECOND BETWEEN COFFEE BREAKS.
AT THE BUS STOP
I hate to burst any bubbles but neither Kula Shaker nor the Boo Radleys are very good. If you're looking for inspirational lyrics, listen to Bob Dylan. For psychedelic fantasy listen to New Kingdom and Tricky and for loud shouty music it's the Beastie Boys.
Oasis, Cast, the Bluetones, Sleeper etc are all absolute rubbish.

Bob's croaky voice is awful. Nearly as
BAD AS TOM WAITS' CRACKED VOCALS.
