SkaBoom and Minor Details

About Me

The BIG explaination
A lot has been going on in the last few months, we had the first issue of Minor Details Zine out in november and it has been an unexpected success (only a few copies left, check out punkermentality.com or contact me for details). SkaForum was sold on to a knew owner and things didnt work out so myself Chris and the others have started up on our own.
Welcome to SkaBoom.co.uk!
We are currently busy making a lovely interactive new website focusing on the UK ska scene and brand squeaky new forums which shall hopefully be ready fo you lot to use soon, in the mean time please keep checking back here. The next issue of Minor Details (might I remind you its not strictly ska by any means) is planned to be out in may and looks to be bigger and better than the last (any contributions to printing costs very much appreciated!). Apart from that all I can really say is check out the bands that are playing in our little music player as they are all great bands, and also check out the bands in our friends list too.
Cheers for your support.
Minor Details Zine ..2 shall be out late april and shall be a special issue to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Do The Dog Records! Including interviews with Kevin @ DTD records and Tauntra, news, reviews, photos, How to.. and much more.
We now have another batch of issue two straight of the lovely rosh's photocopier, this time we're selling them mail order style instead of just through people at gigs so if you'd like a copy email me at [email protected] and let me know.
