athomewithkyle Posted November 17, 2007 Author Share Posted November 17, 2007 For those of you who said yes.... After owning a webzine for almost 2 years, I realized I was covering stuff that I wasn't into anymore and decided it was time to call it quits. But now I want to start another for mainly the what is now called "indie" bands/artists. So I am looking for reviewers, interviewers, news posters and what not. I know this board if filled with a lot of older people who work full time or go to school full time so I don't know how lucky i'll get from this. But hey, it's worth a shot. So if that sounds interesting to you, let me know. Of course you'll be rewarded, CD's for reviewers, tickets to shows for the interviewers, a pat on the back for the news posters.

monk0nuggets Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 I would probably be into reviewing cds, but I can't guarantee the number I could do at any period of time. Let me know what you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monk0nuggets Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 A few maybe? I go to school full time and work and have an internship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
athomewithkyle Posted November 17, 2007 Author Share Posted November 17, 2007 Well i'm looking for about 1 a week. Would that be possible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monk0nuggets Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 Would I be reviewing things worth listening to? I pretty much only want to do it if I am going to get some rad CDs out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desensitizedbyu Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 so someone would have to review the cds to make sure they're good enough, and then you can re-review them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skumbucket Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 oh, and i also do a weekly community radio show that uses chart magazine's top 50 added and played records from campus/community radio stations across canada every week. and i think pretty much everything on your list has appeared on those charts at some point or another, and i think even if i'm not a huge fan of it i've probably played the majority of it.

monk0nuggets Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 It seems like a bunch of people are up for this, and I would like to do it, but I wasn't sure if I wanted to add it to my already busy schedule, so don't feel bad if you don't want me to do it. Give the position to someone who really wants it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
