A very good idea Lewis! I'd be interested it buying them once they were produced, certainly!

Nice idea...though I think the web has pretty much superseded fanzines these days. I think people would be interested, but most of the paper fanzines died out from lack of interest, I'm thinking. Though that does mean you have no competition.

Cheers for the support! Takk, that was my biggest worry. Though if the Manics audience is prepared to read it, then f*** the profit! I'm not bothered. I'd just love to share some of my old articles and stuff to the Manics fanbase!

Yeah, I don't think you'll make any profit, but if you have the money to do it yourself. Could be fun though if they are compilations of lots of people's ideas.

Yeah! Also planning to include a merch section, questionaires and like I said, a gift appropriate for the album included in each issue.

great idea, thanks for the kudos but Delirium is not really a zine anymore, just a website with some photos and the odd interview, go for it though, shout me if you want some cuttings and stuff and I'll go in the loft and if you want to reprint any questionaires from old old Deliriums (when they woz in print like) then just yell (in a PM).

Good luck sweetie xx

It's not a zine anymore, but when it was, it was awesome!

Sounds like a sweet little idea, nice one! Shame fanzines and magazines aren't popular as they once were but I guess within a small small tight fan community of whatever it may be (in this case the Manics) then it can work, for sure!

Great idea, I love fanzines/webzines...
Not sure I would have the time (and the talent) to contribute in this issue but I would definitely buy it! Good luck with it!

(by the way if you're interested in a fanzine in French that talks about the Manics, amongst others, check Cellophane Sounds - link below )

I know Google Translate usually gives dodgy translations but I hope you will get the main ideas.

Zines > internet.
Lewis, you have a great head on you for ideas and creativity. Long may it continue.

A little story about the band from that era would be cool. Maybe throw in some Manics poems, short stories and games.

Well, they are yours to submit! I'll add some crosswords

Thinking of the special gift to include in the GT issue...
