Just letting everyone know that despite the slowdown in local punk and hardcore shows throughout the area, Crucial Changes in still alive.  As mentioned in my Winter Scene Report, the scene is still thriving, but in a different direction via metal and bar shows.  I myself have been busy mailing out current copies of my latest zine, and have been slowly ramping up for Chicago Zine Fest 2014 coming up in mid March.  Speaking of Chicago Zine Fest, the official listing of the participants, and their table locations have been released recently, and I am happy to announce that CCPP will have a table on the first floor.  This will be the third year in a row that I will have a table at the event.
 

CCPP will be located at table 14 (circled in red) at CZF 2014

I will be quite busy the next 3 weeks making special zine reprints exclusive for Chicago Zine Fest, plus a small reprinting of the I Got Mad At People tape compilation, plus whatever swag locals want to donate to be used as free giveaways.

Expect to see project updates within the next couple of weeks leading up to the event.  Also, I have plans of show photo update coming up right around the corner.

That's it for now.  More updates soon.  Peace.
