Although this material is potentially fun & exciting, I still believe the NRA sucks shit!

LIVE REVIEWS

JAVELIN BOOT Ok, so I've been goin' to see the Boot for, like, 5 years now and they haven't changed much at all. They are cool guys & they play the purest pop around (& great covers too, blah, blah, blah). The all-time feel good band. They'll put a spring in your step.

PORK & SEBADOH Pork. Great. Great. Great. Never seen Sebadoh before only heard a little in fact But, as I suspected, I thoroughly enjoyed 'em live! I nearly wet my pants cause I didn't wanna miss anything. Love.

JOAN JETT I was never really into Joan Jett, I mean, sure I rollerskated to I Love Rock'n'Roll but who didn't. After hearing some chicks talk about the show all day at work, I decided I had to go. It was great. The smallest arena show ever. Singalongs, lighters, chanting - everything! She played all the hits. Even Crimson & Clover & Cherry Bomb!

PORK CRYIN' OUT LOUDS MOTARDS SATANS Never ever should anyone have to miss a party at 502 Brentwood. The Brentwood Lounge (shed) is great & there's beer & tons of people & great bands! This party ripped it up! The Motards, COLs & Satans are especially appreciated in a setting like this. Small, crowded & DRUNK!

I found this in this really cool rag they used to carry in a dispenser outside of Ken's. (It's gone now & I don't know where, but I intend to find out & when I do I'll let ya know.)

Ok, so I don't think I adequately defined my terms last issue. You see, I have a thing about geeks. I love 'em! I kinda have to since I've been one my whole life. But, the thing is there's a fine line between geeks & dorks. Dorks suck. Geeks are cool. I basically print this zine for geeks, its by a geek & it's usually about geeks cause that's what I like. Here are some geeks you might like, too.

Look, this is a card commemorating the year in which I was born. That was the year Nixon resigned. In fact, that was the very week I was born. ABBA was goin' strong during my formative years, but my parents protected me from that evil until I was old enough to be able to handle them. Everyone laughs when I tell 'em when I was born cause I'm younger than most of the people I know, but I like it that way. I'd rather be too young than too old! Hah! I'm young & you suck!!
