Hey Kidz,
Welcome to QRD #50. Holy crap.
50 sounds like a lot. It is a lot. & I have the content
for the next three issues already sitting on my computer waiting to be
edited & made into issues. Then I’m not sure what will happen.
The year of experimenting with a dramatic increase in QRD content is ending
& I’ve done around 200 interviews in that time, which is pretty insane
to think about. But the ad revenue I’d hoped this would raise (or
increased interest in Silber since that’s half of my ad content) hasn’t
come to fruition & neither has there seemed to be a dramatic increase
in traffic to the site. It makes me think maybe the internet has
jumped the shark as far as being able to get more information to more people
than a little photocopied zine like this started as in 1994. So maybe
I’ll go down from an issue a month back to a couple issues a year.
I don’t know. I like the series interviews & I still really want
to do a series with drummers & songwriters & singers & touring
musicians & I guess that could get a whole extra year of content.
Anyway, this issue is the third installment
of our Father’s Day interviews with artistic (usually musician) dads &
with about 40 we have done in the past, this one is admitedly a little
low on content & we may do another issue in a couple years when more
of our friends have had kids:
Jason
Ward of Irata (June 2011) - the drummer of Irata

Kurt

Thanks as always for your interest &
support. Feel free to donate money or buy one of our ultra-cheap
ads or buy some stuff over at Silber
Records. New issues coming soon with label owners, guitarists,
indie comic folks & more.
