Literatura para o alem

Com certeza - se e' que da' pra ter alguma certeza nesse caso - se pudermos ouvir musica do lado de la', tambem poderemos ler algo. Perambulando pelo norte, encontrei uma revista velha com cara de nova e um editorial interessante que transcreverei aqui na integra aos interessados...

"you're probably wondering what we are trying to do. It's hard to say: sort of a magazine and sort of a newspaper. The name of it is Rolling Stone, which comes from an old saying: "a rolling stone gathers no moss". Muddy Waters used the name for a song; and "Like a Rolling Stone" was the title of Bob Dylan's first rock & roll record.
We have begun a new publication reflecting what we see are the changes in rock & roll and the changes related to rock & roll. Because the trade papers have become so inaccurate and irrelevant, and because the fan magazines are an anachronism, fashioned in the mold of myth and nonsense, we hope that we have something here for the artists and the industry, and every person who "believes in the magic that can set you free".
Rolling Stone is not just about music, but also about the things and attitudes that the music embraces. We've been working quite hard on it, and we hope you can dig it. To describe it any further would be difficult without sounding like bullshit, and bullshit is like gathering moss."
