	Other magazines to avoid part 1: Select. I really used to love select. 
No, really. In 1995 it was really good, especially the bit at the back by those 
two that wrote father ted - that was SO funny. Anyway, it was always really 
interesting but then the editor left and the new one put Paul Weller on the cover 
(as opposed to Pulp) and started a war against Bis (Who you all know I love) 
and The Bluetones, who, actually, I quite like. I've always wondered why people 
put them in with Shed 7, OCS, etc when they were clearly nothing like them.
	Actally, aren't all magazines shit? Not counting fanzines of course. I 
mean, Private Eye and the NME have some interesting stuff in but in the end 
are 90% dull, dull, dull. Back me up on this one...
	I'm going to see the Divine Comedy on Saturday. I may even have a 
backstage pass. Well, I might. I'll get back to you on that. Or perhaps not. 
Hey, as a respected zine editor do you think I could get a backstage pass to 
interview B&S? How's about it Katrina. Oh, go on! 

			Yours facetiously,
				WeeJay-Blakesdown-Smythe
