We are a zine that exists to give a voice to the silenced, a fighting fist for the weakened, friendship for the lonely, a platform for the legless and a forum for knob gags.
It would be far too crass to call this the SEX issue, so we've called it the 'Procreation Issue' instead to save your blushes! But yeah, it's about mufty mufy, rumpty pumpy, rooty tooty and whatever else you might want to call making the beast with two backs. But of course there's more than just stuff about making babies, there's also an interview with chap of the moment Frank Turner, a bunch of zine and cd reviews, some mad stuff we nicked from elsewhere.
The other good news is that the cover price has dropped to just a quid, in these crunchy credit times you've gotta admit that's something of a bargain! So by buying Beat Motel 09 you'll be doing your part to drag this country out of recession, if you don't, well then we'll all blame you when we're rioting in the streets and queuing all day just to buy a loaf of bread. Now why would you do that to us? What did we ever do to hurt you? Buy Beat Motel, you'll feel better for it, and it's such a worth cause it may even count towards your community service hours, honest!
[wolf-whistles, makes a cat noise, imitates a bed squeaking, purrs, pants, barks, howls, twiddles his lips] "Hubba hubba!"

im just about to print standard issue .. we did got some pretty cool shit :) interview with scroobius pip nd babar luck (hopefully, briggs is doin it)... done some cool illustrations and badgered some interesting articles...
but ive never actually finished or printed a successful zine before and i dont exactly know what happens next! heh heh heh
anyway. point is. i was wondering if you could give me some pointers as to where to stick it and where to advertise it? since mitch sold standard issue distro i dont really know what to do...and i reckon we gots some good stuff but ive got this distressing picture of me sitting in the midst of hundreds of copies of the zine, using it as loo paper, making rather snazzy paper clothes, possibly making a lifesize replica of the black pearl and floating it down the park...and generally not selling it..
well, anything would be cool, hope youre cool, cool.
