Vinyl Reviews & Venue Reports are what I look out for when purchasing any fanzines, especially Vinyl Reviewed by collector's who review the lesser known/unknown stuff and ordinary pay-at-the-door punters who aren't obligated to the promoter, honesty is what you get.

I usually buy them then don't even read them. I'm a busy guy you know Seriously I usually scan through and read stuff that catches my eye and that could be the writer, the featured artist, label or track not firm rules.

Seperately but related Roly and I have been toying with the idea of reviving 'In the Neighbourhood' the freebee we used to give out at the Neighbourhood. Only worth the effort doing it if people found it worthwhile.?
