This is #33 of Distort. Part two of a two part scavenging of the first few issues, this time digging through #14 - #19 and reprinting choice fragments of interviews/feature pieces. The best shit...#18. Fuck man. I deleted all the writing for this issue....and I also gave all the issues away. I didn't like this one at all, but I never considered I might want to reconsider that at some other stage of my life. Retard. If anyone has a spare of this, send it to me...

The new issue. I had a typewriter that I loaned from a friend and intended to lay out this entire issue with it. I got one page in and realised these are the kinds of ambitions I should pursue when I have more time on my hands...but it's an ambition I intend to return to as soon as the dust settles over this Summer. Since I've started Distort, a few fanzines have come along with layouts that make me feel like I'm wasting my time...

Stitches In My Head #1
$4.00
Lester Bangs & Richard Meltzer
Welcome to Stitches In My Head 1#, a fanzine with a focus on punk rock (a general term) and those bands of today, but always with an influence from music and other things music related from the past. Nothing's changed since my old zine except the title; I'll let you figure out what the old one was. I'm four months into a six month holiday in the USA. I'd hit a head end with punk in Melbourne and had to get out...

...Hardcore punk has produced few geniuses. One-note fanzines like Dumb Hardcore revel in the genre's perceived lack of intelligent discourse, suggesting that the best hardcore is made exclusively by stupid people. After all, nothing could get a pack of homophobic, glue huffin' boneheads to haul cold ass like a dose of lumbering, stale academics...

This is the back to business issue. Interviews with Sydney's Taipan and Whores, and knuckle dragging brothers from Brisbane, Slug Guts. These three bands represent the seedy side of modern Australian rock music...

...The rest of the Melbourne trip was bitter and depressing. Most visits interstate are marked by severe anxiety and stomach pain, and this was no exception. I decided to not book a return ticket and float around town until I either ran out of money or would hang myself by my underpants...

I started to voraciously read Dolly and Girlfriend magazines when I was about twelve or thirteen. They cost about $3.50 and were sold at the servo on the corner near my mum's house. I felt guilty about reading them...

...NO REGRETS: Biggest stupido thing I did was putting off buying tickets to Eddy Current Suppression Ring, who performed this month, for ages because I was worrying about money (even though the ticket was a meagre $20) and then it sold out and I missed out. Also, having noone to go with to see Circle Pit, not that I should have let going alone stop me, and thus only attending one out of five of their Melbourne shows. Lastly and mostly, recording failure with Socio Poder.

...So what are all the teens doing these days and how are they supported in a scene that predominantly plays at overage venues (ie pubs and bars?) Also, why should young kids that aren't in bands, but enjoy the live music scene, not be allowed to see the bands they want to because of Liquor Licensing laws? I know there are government bodies that support all all age drug and alcohol free events...and that's awesome...But at the same time, most of the bands they get for those shows generally follow the trends of teenagers at that time and that pull more people, which doesn't appeal to people like me or the people who read this zine...

Tuesday night on the week leading up to the event we go postering around Melbourne town. Coles is the first stop, as cigarettes and snacks are needed to get ready for some hard work, which I ended up sitting in the car the whole time enjoying the heater anyway. Posters are put down High St and Smith St, along Gertrude St into the city...

It's Sunday morning and I'm sitting in my lounge room watching day time TV, piecing together bits of memory from the night before. I smell bad and am covered in bits of vomit. I can remember the start of the night, then vomiting in the gutter, seeing a band but not really remembering their set, just that I was staggering around the mosh being a douche...
