Ice Cream For Quo is a magazine about music - and more - put together by me, Stephen .
Ice Cream For Quo is produced on a non-profit-making basis, roughly every two months or so. Previously, issues had been given away for free but I can no longer afford to do this, despite my idealistic wishes to somehow operate outside of the economy. I have now started charging for the magazine so as to cover the costs.
