WHOOPSY MAGAZINE

entertainment for the discriminating degenerate

About Me


South-by-South-Whoopsy! at Trophy's:
Whoopsy is an independent culture/entertainment magazine based in Austin Texas, featuring all kinds of music, movies, art, books, sex, hotrods & choppers, short stories, rants & raves, comix, inappropriate commentary, and a sports section that will make the hotdogs run out yo butt... www.whoopsymagazine.com.
WE OFFER BUTT-KICKIN' AD RATES! 20% off for local bands.
We do BOOKING in Austin, CD reviews, show previews, local business profiles... hook up!
Whoopsy is distributed free of charge at over 250 locations throughout the Austin area, and at select locations in San Marcos and San Antonio, TX. Our expanded, national distribution began December 2005 and ended when we figured out how much it costs to ship a bunch of newsprint. We'd rather keep our ads dirt-cheap for our Austin sponsors. If you want to subscribe to Whoopsy, advertise, or add your Austin-area business/venue to our distribution list, you can contact us here.
Whoopsy has an open submission policy and we're always on the prowl for writers, photographers, illustrators & layout designers, and ad sales reps.
If you want your CD reviewed, send us a brief introduction to the music and/or CD jacket graphics, and request our mailing address. For those who don't know this, it is advisable to familiarize yourself with a publication's style and antics before submitting material for review. If you're looking for a promotional review for your "press kit" we have writers for hire. ===============================================
