On glue sticks, chips and statistics...
For the first issue of R*E*P*E*A*T in 1994 we printed
66 copies.
In 2016 (if I read the stats properly) we've had 3,093,804
hits from 312,337 different visitors to www.repeatfanzine.co.uk
I think this shows not just the brilliance of our contributors, bands
and of course The Manics, but also a resilience of resistance to the
way we are told things (music, culture, society) have to be, a continued
belief that beneath the pavement is the beach, and a determination in
this mad, alienating and sick world to Stay Beautiful.
2016 hasn't been the easiest of years for many of us. However, 100 years
ago a famous revolutionary said There are decades where nothing
happens; and there are weeks where decades happen.
It's up to us to fill 2017 with these weeks.
Thanks to everyone who's helped...x
Rosey R*E*P*E*A*T, 1.1.17
