Zine's are the business! Actually no, they're the anti-business, the soul! Best when they are done ghetto and given out free, a true labour of love with planty of soul!
Boggin Zine is a high brow news letter that has existed in the dark recesses of the Irish skate scene for over a decade. Its content is rad, pure and it never smacks of fizzy drink lameness (apart from McDaid's football special!) It always gives me a giggle and some motivation at the same time- rad DIY ethic that seems that has been missed until this new resurgance of late..
The lateral brain behind the issue, Jay Doherty, has posted up somewhat of a retrospective over at the online version of boggin, worth a look if you're into the ol' ziney thing..CLICK
I tried to post a couple of photos of boggin issues below, but a weird server error kept stopping me, bizzareo! Maybe its too underground to upload! Instead here's a picture of a tapa I found about the new testament while looking for a DIY skate spot around WIcklow.
