well done tim…..wish you would take it a step further, and get cheng,singer,and roelefaklcr to talk a bit….i for one would like to know where they are now,and what their take on that time is…. i don’t think enough credit is given to zines as we look back on what went down….zines, as it turns out were the precursors to the w.w.web/internet…. they were almost as important as starting a band in the diy/punk ethic…..they provided support and a sense of identity across geographically diverse “punk” communities…. they were important vehicles for distribution of information and provided a “mouthpiece” for their own particular communities…..they were a vital form of participant observer chronicles of a unique subculture…. they established new and influential asthetics for underground zines to come….and by example, they empowered fans and others to self publish their own zines….it wouldn’t be so easy doing what we are doing right here, if we didn’t have some type of record of our particular times already out there…..many zine writers and photogs went on to much bigger and better things…..as a contributor to many zines here and abroud, i can honestly say boiling point was one of the best…...ks
