[Freddie Fireworks]

NOFX's manager asked me who you were a while back when you contacted them.  Your name sounds familiar I guess?  What do you do, just the zine?

[bradleyadita]

[Freddie Fireworks]

Oak Park is weird... nice white suburb with big houses bordering on a poor black neighborhood. Evanston is the same way.

[DitkaFan]

I've bounced between Wicker Park, Ukranian Village and then Logan Square to keep up with the hipness of everything Chicago.  I ended up in Oak Park where I proceeded to become a hermit.

I live in the suburbs. The suburb I live in is amusing because I see all these white kids in hummers listening to rap music. Do they really need to drive a hummer and listen to rap music to build up their cred?

[jackeen]

I'm Mairin. I live in the south loop when I'm not at school. I also try to go to as many shows as I can if I'm at home or can go with some friends from Champaign.

[mike d]
