Well the year is almost coming to a close, and what a year its been. Its been so busy that unfortunately I have had no spare time to edit our Annual Mudkiss interview book. So for the first time in 4 years we have no 2012 book coming out, which is sad but I guess you could say we are a victim of our own success. As anyone knows who manages any kind of online music zine, it is hard work and can be stressful at times, juggling everything that a decent site demands, e-mails, sorting out gigs, interviews, going out reviewing, photographing, and putting it all together, social networking, plus holding down a full time job. So rather than crash and burn we try to take a break around December to recharge our batteries and see if we have the energy, determination, patience to go forth for yet another year. However during this time we shall still continue to post previews/videos and items of interest, we won't be completely dead. We just need to as the posters say.....stay cool and chill out.
