Bucketfull of Brains
The good folks at Bucketfull of Brains are having a subscription drive.
For those unfamiliar with this fantastic music (and more) magazine, I suggest you check out their blog, Facebook, and/or My Space pages. Like many other labors of love, BoB has encountered severe financial handships the last couple of years, and even stopped publishing for a while. The last few issues have been one-offs, but now they're looking to begin publishing again on a regular schedule; however, in order to do this they need 400 new subscribers. With print magazines going under at an alarming rate, it would be a shame to see a terrific magazine like BoB suffer the same fate.
For more info on how to subscribe, see the pages, above. You won't be sorry if you support this amazing, one-of-a-kind publication!
