I did buy the new Garage Mag.
I was happy to see that even with the buyout (from my experience as an editor and a publisher in the past - this was a smart move for Garage) the book still looks like it has all the ingredients that made it great - i.e. stories, artwork, and a bit of street grit and style....
I was very happy to see the article or interview on Rico - More Rico!!!!!
I think the buyout will show some great things down the road.
It is very difficult in keeping a Magazine alive.... Especially if you are a one or two title publisher - cash flow becomes nill - and without good capital - it eventully either 1. sells out to advertisers and what they want to see or 2. Just goes away all together....
Enough of my publishing nonesense...
I have to say that the JJ - has been extremely helpful in my own education on motorcycles and style.... I do lurke on here a few times a day - and try to keep my posts to a minnimum - and worth something....
Now as for The Horse......... Man - I have to say I buy the mag - but thats mainly because I am a neo Magazine freak - and will always be one. It definitely needs some insurgence in the worst way..... The bikes.... man - leave me scratching my head a bit....
I will say - that there are some issues - that have some great Bikes in there - and I keep those mags around....
I now move on to - DICE Mag............. Hands down brings it each and every issue....
There is not one issue of Dice - that I do not obsesses over - and wish there was more more more..........
It takes a lot of money - and time to put a magazine together and I give it to Matt and Dean for what they are able to do - each and every issue....
I have learned a ton - just looking at pics in Dice and picking up on things that they cover.....
Very Well Done......
Please do not change - or it could ruin its class...
Long live Dice...........
And the JJ of corse!!!!
Man this is a long post.....
I sure hope it wasn't gay -
