Noisy - Essex Music Fanzine

Sorry for the spammage but just trying to get the word out regarding our latest 'project' ;)
 
The ink on the pages of brand new issue 7 may still be wet but that doesn't stop Noisy planning ahead. What now? How can we make the next issue even more exciting?
Well, we may have found the answer - seeing as issue 8 is due to be unleashed just before everybody's fave time o' year - Crimbo, we thought we'd go all 'Smash Hits' and create a super-duper, 'stars of the Essex music scene' 2009 calendar! oh yes!
What we need you to do: If you're in a band, a solo artist, or a promoter/radio station/zine writer/club night, and you are BASED IN ESSEX, UK ('cos that's important), send us a 'themed' photo of yourselves - perhaps you'd like to be captured sat round the Xmas tree in hideous sweaters or engaged in a snowball fight for December or January? Maybe you're a bunch of moody goths eager to break out the fake blood & fangs for October? Or you're more at home on the beach, soaking up those rays, for the Summer months - the funniest/most creative efforts are sure to secure a place in our calendar!
 
Entries need to be sent to me at info@noisyzine.co.uk by SEPTEMBER 1st 2008, the best ones will be chosen, announced on our website/myspace where more details of the final 'thing' will follow...
 
How the final result will actually be realised has yet to be decided - it could be a proper 'hang on your wall' jobbie, a PDF download or a mini pocket-sized dealy, I don't know, these schemes mainly fall flat on their face due to apathy so we may only get 2 month's worth of material submitted! - but please, PROVE ME WRONG PEOPLE, PROVE ME WRONG!!!!

Yes, Gibson should give me a free guitar for making their stuff look (and sound) good! Talking of 'product placement' - you can't really see it in most the pics, but I am wearing a Zen Motel T-shirt.
