About this ebook
A compilation of the first nine issues of the author's sporadically published and widely acclaimed personal zine, this volume reflects the do-it-yourself attitude of the 1990s punk music scene and includes humorous anecdotes, philosophical musings, andnuanced descriptions of odd locales and curious characters, all of which were taken mostly from outside of the punk milieu. This new release of a cult classic shows the far reaching influence of self-publishingwith contemporary popular indie culture and bridges the gap between sub-culture and the world at large.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5In any collection of stories such as this some are going to be better than others. However, for the most part I found Al's writings to be well written (even if they weren't edited), funny (see his Greyhound trips), but most of all *honest*.Al's life isn't brilliant, and as one of his stories points out such a situation shouldn't be romanticised, but I found this insight into his typical activities very good reading. It no doubt helps that I share some of Al's cynical outlook on life!
