So much of what see/saw published in the past month seemed to boil punk rock blogging down to its primordial goo. [Shogun’s words](https://see-saw.fun/shogun-on-royal-headache-antenna-and-a-completely-fucked-music-industry/) about vulnerability and the music industry seemed to resonate broadly. Chris Landry’s [discussion](https://see-saw.fun/you-should-read-rate-of-decay-the-great-2-toronto-punk-zine/) of his punk zine *Rate of Decay* got into that drive to create something tangible. I got a note from someone indicating they’re taking the [Cincinnati punk community open forum](https://see-saw.fun/the-cincinnati-punk-scene-open-forum-at-feel-it-record-shop-was-beautiful/) as a potential guidepost for launching something similar in their own scene. Ultimately this is why I always wanted to write about music. Figuring out what drives people to create things is kind of an impossible question, but it’s an especially important one in the world of punk and rock’n’roll. People lose jobs going on tour. Streaming services barely pay anything if they pay anything at all. Making things in this climate is a compulsion. What’s behind that? Why do it? Is the artist trying to outrun something? Is it an attempt to let the bats out? see/saw is at least partially about chasing those questions. In addition to the aforementioned pieces, the “[Punk This Week](https://see-saw.fun/tag/punk-this-week/)” recommendations column is still trucking, with new punk, garage rock, and hardcore blurbs for $4/month or [barter](https://see-saw.fun/bartering/). Here’s what else is going on: - By the end of June, see/saw hit just shy of 900 total subscribers, which is unreal. My next goal is to reach 1,000, and the only way that happens is through word of mouth. I’m going to keep making goofy videos and handing out flyers to try to galvanize support, but consider hitting up some friends or loved ones and recommending see/saw. - Very soon, some of the best rock writers in the world will contribute to see/saw. Everyone is getting paid for their work, and that money is coming from [paid subscriptions](https://see-saw.fun/about/#/portal/). If you like what I do here and want to see it grow, [please consider buying in](https://see-saw.fun/about/#/portal/). - Interested in flyering for [barter](https://see-saw.fun/bartering/) or to help support this operation?

Come say hey and grab a sticker or button! - [*Endless Scroll*](https://x.com/endlessscroll%5F?ref=see-saw.fun) welcomed me on the pod to discuss the punk to indie pop pipeline, hinged on Soup Activists and Silicone Prairie but also Angel Du$t Militarie Gun. A great hang! Tune in. - Pick up the first issue of the new zine [*Portable Model*](https://www.twoflatpress.com/shop/p/portable-model-issue-1?ref=see-saw.fun); I’ve got a piece in there about collecting CD binders. I also wrote a [piece about Mary Timony](https://www.nytimes.com/2024/06/26/arts/music/mary-timony-washington-dc-mentor.html?ref=see-saw.fun) and mentorship for *The New York Times*. It’s shaping up to be an exciting inaugural summer for see/saw. I’m having a massive amount of fun, and I can’t wait for y’all to see what’s next.
