YETI MAGAZINE

About Me

Started by Mike McGonigal around 2000, YETI is hard to explain but I guess you could call it a general interest magazine for people with marginal interests. Subjects covered include literature, film, unicorns, the stock market, black science fiction writers, Swedish trance-folk bands from the '60s, the roots of Alfred Jarry's Pere Ubu character, John Denver, horror vacuui drawings, streetcorner gospel musicians, sex and comic art.Format of the thing is a perfect-bound, 6" by 9" book with a full-length CD affixed to the inside back cover. Both the book and CD are jam-packed (224 pages/ eighty minutes). It used to come out really infrequently, but is now being published three times a year.
