SO, IT’S GREAT TO HAVE PEOPLE OFFER SUPPORT AND HELP AND EVEN GREATER WHEN THINGS START TO HAPPEN! SO, I’D LIKE TO WELCOME PAUL STONE TO THE TEAM (WELL, IT IS A TEAM NOW). OF KEYSIDE STRIKE AND JURATORY FAME. HE’S ALSO HELPED OUT DECONTROL FOR A COUPLE OF GIGS WITH HELLBASTARD IN THE SUMMER. HE’S ALSO BEEN FEATURED IN THIS ZINE BEFORE AND WAS INSTRUMENTAL IN SECURING THE DISCHARGE FOR QUESTIONS IN ISSUE 3. I’M SURE THAT WITH ALL OF THE CONTACTS THAT HE HAS, IT WILL MAKE FOR EVEN MORE INTERESTING READING! IT’S A SHORTER ISSUE, BUT MORE IN-DEPTH... ENJOY! LOVE, PEACE & ANARCHY PAUL, December 9, 2017.
