rabble - a new underground newspaper hits the streets.

Yeah fair enough. In terms of Cork, just from over the weekend there are lots of copies in plugd records and gulpd cafe in cork on Sat. Copies are meant to go into the camden palace, fas building art space, cork printmakers gallery & the quay co-op today. I'll update with exact details of the other spots later.

But I can't find any pick-up points outside the locality on that address. Maybe you could add a few. Good luck with the effort.

Fair enough question, but Soundtracksforthem was always more of a personal project with a fair rake of contributors chipping in over the years. There was never much of an audience either. rabble's an attempt to build something with a much larger audience, and a much more vital collective component at the working heart of it. If you email me off Indymedia, I'll fill you in some more on it.

Regards this Dublincentric thing, sorry - but that is a defacto statement of who the people involved in rabble are. That doesn't make us Dublincentric ,sure we have looked over the rim of the Pale - copies are have gone down to Cork, Galway, Limerick, Maynooth and Dundalk - and who knows where else along the way. Have a look at the first issue, there's a fair bit of coverage that is non-Dublin specific. Anyway, sure why not take a leaf out of Indymedia and get in touch with some ideas - it'd be very welcome.

what opus is saying is
"good luck with your paper, but maybe don't be totally dublinocentric"

I wish you all the best with your paper too.

This is a good thing - but why reinvent the wheel, antrophe?
I quite liked Soundtracks for Them - why not a paper version of that?
Or at least pour the energy into revitalising it?

and for fuxache break out and look over the rim of your Pale. The village is global.

Whoever is writing the rabble magazine please don't try and include any more comedy, its not even funny. As a woman, you can see it's a couple of ian O' doherty wannabe (sorry it's true) comparisons going on here. The other stuff is solid enough but don't write or feign that you know how to write comedy. Many irish male writers fall flat on their face, few get to stand on the stage.
Beir bua and all that waffle
