Description:
From page 3: "So this zine is about a traveling exhibition of art and zines that G & I put together with the help of many, inspired by other non-music tours that graced our town, inspired by the awesome things that many of our friends created, that went virtually unseen...This zine tells the stories of our journeys, trying to show the very human side of touring as well as the places we visited, people we met, miles logged on the car..."

Stolen Sharpie Revolution
Description:
Introduction to the world of zines. This highly useful "here's what it's all about" guide by the author of the zine Brainscan is the perfect starting point for any novices in the scene or aspiring zinesters. Chapters titles include Zine Tips, Making Copies, Distro Etiquette, Mail Crafts, and more. Wrekk's work here is probably one of the cornerstones of the scene as it exists, today.
