Heeeellllloo fellas! I hope you all had (or are still havin’) a FINE-O-LICIOUS VALENTINES DAY! I took my cybernetic missus out to dinner… well… ya see, since we’re undead cyborgs we’d never get a table since it’s kinda difficult to bill “dead guys”. I wined-n-dined with my lovely Cassetta in the dumpster at Padrino! Day-old spaghetti’s better than no spaghetti! Then we went back to our own dumpster, watched one of her favorite video nasties, and then… err… I’M NOT TELLIIN’! THE NEXT ISSUE OF THE CHAINGUN ISLAND ZINE COMES OUT FEBRUARY 24TH! And let me warn ya… this one’ll be RAUNCHY! Just like… MMMMM CAN’T LET THAT SECRET SLIP ON-LINE!

I’m not one to BLOG IT UP usually, but do I got a story for you that just can’t wait! A couple days ago, I went to the Trader’s World Flea Market in Monroe, Ohio with my buddies Odbal ‘n Virgil. Let me tell ya, that joint’s already filled with weirdos so we fit right in! No need to sneak around like we usually do! Anywho, we were havin’ a good time lookin’ for videogames ‘n records ‘n other fun junk when I stumbled upon a man that would change the course of the whole damn trip. He was at least six-foot-tall, clad in a leather jacket, black jeans, boots, and had crime scene tape danglin’ from his belt like some kinda nutz-o fashion statement! Yes, ladies and germs, I encountered the PUNK! He started talkin’ a mile-’o’-minute about how he used to play bass for a band that opened for Ratt and how he personally knew Glenn Danzig! He took us back to his little hole-in-the-wall record shop where he proceeded to show us all the rare stuff he had. Let me tell ya, he was not kiddin’. The dude had a 1-in-500 GREEN variant of Metallica’s Ride The Lightning that was only available in France. He said that “the French aren’t too bright so they thought it should be green.” He also showed us a STUDIO PRESSING of Pink Floyd durin’ one of their Animals sessions back in the day! He and I talked for what seemed like hours, I looked behind me and saw that Odbal ‘n Virgil had skedaddled to some other part of the market while he was yakkin’ about how the Ramones were the “true American band, not that Bruce Springsteen guy.” I asked the PUNK if he knew about my ‘ol stompin’ grounds, Spiral Groove Records, and he said “isn’t it that one fuckin’ store with the albums on the wall and those CD drawers?” I reluctantly said yes. I told him to look out for a local band I’ve been sponsorin’ called… well… I’m gonna plead the 5th on that band for now… they haven’t had any shows yet, but when they do it’ll be at Spiral Groove! When I looked at my watch I saw that it was almost CLOSIN’ TIME, so I gave him a copy of the CHAINGUN ISLAND ZINE and told him to KEEP IT ECLECTIC! I wonder if I’ll ever see that PUNK again…

MERRY CHIRSTMAS EVERYBODY! 8-Track TeckHead here wishin' you all an ECLECTIC Christmastime. Let me tell ya, I've had the BEST Christmas I've ever had so far! I woke up bright-'n'-early to see the fine white snow fallin' on the streets of Milford; Cassetta 'n' Odbal were still snoozin' so I started thinkin' about the ZINE and all the CRAZY ideas I have for it rockin' into the NEW YEAR! Just then, Odbal SCREAMED (he always does that when he wakes up) which woke up my smokin' undead cyborg wife, Cassetta. Pretty quickly, we got down to openin' gifts. I got Odbal his very own 45 RPM turntable so he can finally stop hoggin' our main rig for his "Odbal Picks". I also got Cassetta a year-long pass to Arcade Legacy, one of our FAVORITE date-spots, bow-chicky-wow-wow! Finally, it came time to open my gift and LO AND BEHOLD! It was a top-'a'-the-line bonafide PRINTER! Gone are the days of tellin' my agent to sneak into Kinko's to print ZINES when I can just DO IT MYSELF! We had ourselves a merry lil' Christmas.


What about you all? Have an ECLECTIC CHRISTMAS from the CHAINGUN ISLAND CREW!
