    Putting together a New Music Magazine for local band in Dublin to get some recognition! its going to be called RAWK!! and therell be 5,000 copies spread out around dublin.

    Basically itll be a proper magazine, full colour and itll come with a compilation CD. The Magazine will feature 15 bands in each issue and have full info, interviews, pictures, a gig guide for each band and a track on the cd from your band and 14 others.

    after youve been in the magazine once, our website will keep updating info and gig dates for your band.

    we have partial sponsorship from the likes of hobo and whelans among others. please let me know if youre interested at all in participating in this magazine, our goal is to get dublin music heard and get rid of any pop lurking about the streets:)

    thanks for your time hope to hear from you soon!
    (please post your interest here and your email address and we'll be in touch)

    Your magazine sounds like a brillant idea. I'd love to help you out but if it means writing reveiws of bands, i dont know if i could be any help as i've never done anything like that before, but i could always try! If you need anything else done for your magazine i'd love to help.
    You can email me at biZrb@exite.com.
    Oh and best of luck with it!
