Ideas for issue #3?

Of course all the usual features will be there....Brian's B-side Basement, G's Sport Chat, Dear Tim etc...

But what else would you like to see?

When are you planning on releasing next one?
If people want another comic could be done

Mir suggested getting one out in time for the summer festival season

Discussed an 'Ash Pictionary' item with Lucy a while back, could be fun.

Basically, pictionary where the answers are Ash songs, or anything Ash related. Usual rules, hand drawn, no letters or numbers. Artistic skills not required - thats part of the fun! We could do one each, and ask people to send theirs in for future issues. Whaddya reckon? I can't decide whether this would be funny or lame...

(And someone would have to have a crack at The Sweetness Of Death By The Obsidian Knife - I nominate Keith)

Ah i'd forgotten about the pictionary thing, i like the idea personally, but yeah what are peoples thoughts?

pictionary sounds fun, worth a try! I still think a comparison of old skool interveiw with the bands current thoughts on the same questions. They have been asked some weird stuff over the years

I think thats a great idea, see how much the guys have changed, or not as i think the case will be

Yeah, I could plough through some old articles and find some good questions to re-ask....I like that plan!

I'll whip up some treats. I'll have the time from the end of this month.

awesome dude

I could have another crack at the bio throgh the fans' eyes? I have a lot of free time right now as I'm not doing my disso til August.

And it would be cool to have a dedicated area in this forum where we keep adding each date ash are playing as they are announced and ask people to sign up to the ones they are attending. Not everybody is on Facebook and I find that events tool annoying cos it relies on people remembering to check it regularly. Will make meet ups easier and stop that stuff clogging up the main areas on here and annoying people who can't go to things.

Another thing that could be a gashed/ gashed board crossover might be to stick the best of fanart etc into the actual zine. I know people like Ronan have made really nice desktops and stuff in the past, so maybe functional bits could be linked in the main zine with the designer's permission?

Another quizlet thingy: what fan-age are you? From the really young (Ollie) to the incredibly old (That awful junglebongos (?) man who was someone's dad) to the plain old jaded and curmudgeonly (pretty much everybody else).

Ok, I'm done.



OMG! Can't believe even THEY'VE joined

I'll sort out the myspace page properly after this week is over

Awesome ideas

aww thanks

I still have ambitions of being organised enough so that there's a sort of named gashed rep at each ash event who will sit in a designated venue pre or post gig so that people can meet up with them if they want. Might make it a little easier for shy people who haven't met anyone before to show.

I'm sweet and friendly really....
