This issue took longer to get out due to my usual problems - finances, laziness, and beer.

Do NOT write to the old email address: "rrrfanzine@gmail.com"
It will not be answered by me from there.

Hangover cures

grapefruit juice (to replenish your electrolytes)

colloidal silver ( put some drops in a glass of water)

==========================

was too bummed out yesterday. Many were "excited" as Christmas was nearly here.

Being a long hair wearing a denim jacket brings about different feelings, especially in others.
1 - bus drivers sometimes drive by without stopping to pick you up, [they must have got tips from the assholes that work for the TTC ].
2-but some bus drivers or even vehicle drivers passing by, I see will look happy. Could be the Led Zep sew-on patch.
I will guess they are also glad because I refuse to be an effeminate looking metrosexual or one of these emo rock queers that have plagued us for like 15 years.
3 - people leave me alone, but some gawk. "WHO is this guy??"
4- underage chicks trying to look cool, but their smoking cigarettes is a turnoff for me. Plus I am old enough to know how I would feel if I was their father, and that they should know better.
5 - I have a headache. now go look at another site

 when checking my mailbox, still see my fucking Skullfist records have not showed up. Will have to check if VISA got my money back from PayPal as I made a complaint a couple weeks ago nothing has showed up!

woman yells at an author with a tell-all book on a KISS member

One of the first "heavy" bands, if not the VERY first hard rock band I ever liked was KISS.
Their 1970s albums, and exposure in Tiger Beat and 16 and all the other teen pop/rock magazines back in the day were a good escape besides comic books.

The further you get into discovering a band you really dig, you end up in the zone of books and magazines - you learn the band's and musicians' history - musical and private and the people that surround them.
Some of the biographical info you will learn you won't know if it is true or false, or speculating gossip.

Now with the internet, you can even HEAR.
Months ago I read  http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/ace-frehley-announces-lineup-of-his-touring-band/ , and in the section below it, one posted the comment
"Rachael Gordon (Better than the Tube Bar, Jerky Boys, Alec Baldwin phone calls) on YouTube"

A googlesearch later and found it.

Years ago, when I was reading about another one of my fave bands that was on the Casablanca Records label, ANGEL ,  and

Gordon G.G. Gebert,  was on the keyboards for their reunion instead of Greg Giuffria.

The more I started for info on Gebert, there were nasty comments on music forums that he ripped off Ace Frehley and his fanclub members.
I have no idea if that is true.

But here is a phonecall from somebidy that is in the camp that doesn't trust him.

I remember reading something about these guys in the late 1990s or early 2000s in a fanzine interview. If they were in any zines in the 1980s, I just don't remember.

It was only in the past year or two, I started wondering more about them, especially after guitarist Nonoy of PAGANFIRE said they were one of his fave bands.
Downloaded some demos, (you can join the ex-LOCKJAW guys/current Strappado blog members' forum at http://heavymetalrarities.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=14738 and download if curious).

Pretty good raging metal.
I wish I heard these guys sooner, but I blame the underground metal scene overall for this.
The reason is explained in a good interview here -
http://beatroute.ca/2014/11/04/everything-new-under-the-sun-order-from-chaos/

Chuck Keller:  .............
But by the same token, one of the reason why no one really cared, because well, back in the day, no one did care about OST. Nobody cared about us. We didn’t do blast beats, we weren’t extreme in that archetypal sense, we were just a good solid… we thought we were descending from Celtic Frost, Voivod, and Sodom, we thought we were the next generation of that. And obviously, the greater scene had moved on from that, and we sort of got buried, so to speak.

That's right!
In the late 1980s/early 1990s up until now in 2014,  many fans/bands started the trend of wanting to have fast blasting double-bass drums and sounding like a jackhammer ALL the time. Blah, it is NOT good all the time in my opinion, and glad that OFC were never part of the trend and kept their integrity.

anyways,

There will be TWO versions of vinyl -
Regular,
and
the Diehard Version (including extra recordings).

The  Digital version - which is the Regular vinyl recordings on CD's, also will have  a DVD.

The DVD will NOT be included with the DieHard vinyl.

I bet this will sell out instantly, and then the typical outrageous prices on eBay will follow from the price gougers....

George Orwell's 1984 (1954) BBC Staring Peter Cushing

From wikipedia:

Nineteen Eighty-Four is a British television adaptation of the novel of the same name by George Orwell, originally broadcast on BBC Television in December 1954. The production proved to be hugely controversial, with questions asked in Parliament and many viewer complaints over its supposed subversive nature and horrific content. In a 2000 poll of industry experts conducted by the British Film Institute to determine the 100 Greatest British Television Programmes of the 20th century, Nineteen Eighty-Four was ranked in seventy-third position.
