The Mega-Zine Museum
January 5—6, 2001
ENWALDO, PRINCE OF THE SEA You know what would have saved this movie? Surf music... man, surf music makes anything good. Even Arsenal's dodgy away form?
GREEDY SLEEPER "Hello, hello, what's all this shouting? We'll have no trouble here. This is a local shop, for local people". How that makes me laugh. You lied to me — there IS a Swansea!
HOLY PURPLE DRAGON I'm blue, da ba de da ba da! You wanna see a doctor, mate. Don't think that's normal.
THE 'ZINE NATIONAL ANTHEM
The 'Zine anthem obviously has to be done by Placebo. Brian has said that "Placebo is music for outsiders by outsiders and our gigs are like conventions of outcasts".
Their music is perfect for us! I suggest "Pure Morning" as the anthem.
Loadsa love and glitter,

Fine by me, but I fear there will be
ONE OR TWO OBJECTIONS!
DEAR GUTLESS WONDER
I am quite aware of what constitutes talent, and the Manics certainly don't have it. Unless, of course, this is your definition of talent where "talent" actually means unremarkable, average, indistinct.
For the dictionary definition of talent, try listening to Alice In Chains, Soundgarden and Blind Melon.
Parlsey Possum
Unremarkable, average, indistinct...
YOU FORGOT LARDY!
OK EVERYONE, GATHER ROUND AND LISTEN
Am I the only one who feels kinda sorry for poor Plughole? I mean, if B*ckch*t had 'Ziners on it, if the letters on there weren't about mobile phones and Craig David, it would be acceptable.
I want you all to bombard B*ckch*t using your 'Zine pseudonyms and rid the place of Trendies. At least for one week. Starting now.

B*ckch*t will never be acceptable —
THAT'S WHY WE HAVE 'ZINE!
'ZINERS
Did any other 'Ziners watch the film Nightmare Before Christmas on TV? Did ya? Well, it was sublimely beautiful and now I think I have fallen in love with Jack Skellington.
Those black, crater-like eyes and smooth ribs, lanky limbs and fresh bare bones... the Pumpkin King truly is a face of pure perfection. WLW, I have fallen in lust and lunacy.

Didn't see it...
PROBABLY PASSED OUT ON THE SOFA
WLW AND 'ZINERS
Spiralling through darkness and hate
Your wild is blinded by fate
Nothing is right, nothing is true
Empty dreams, just like you
Is this what life has in store for me?
My eyes are burnt, I'm unable to see
My life and body, dead at the seams
My life is surrounded by shattered dreams
Oh well, there's always tomorrow right?
Sadistically Evil And Notorious
Absolutely...
EVERY CLOUD AND ALL THAT
BLACK WIDOW
I agree that drummers deserve more recognition, but what about bassists? Robin Graves, Krist Novoselic and Tumor are great musicians but, because they're not lead guitarists, nobody takes any notice of them.
By the by, I managed to escape the "Narnia" of my freezer. Turns out that the Snow Queen was actually Tinky Winky.
Silvan Draconis
Yeah... I was with you right up to
'BY THE BY', LOST ME AFTER THAT
2001
Wow... 2001 years! How amazing is that?
Frankly, I don't care about it, as I didn't care about the year 2000. I mean, they're just years aren't they? Nothing GREAT happens... in fact, life becomes more annoying what with all the spin-offs. Take the Millennium Dome for example...

I wish someone would take it —
TAKE IT AND DUMP IT IN BELGIUM!
