This issue as you can probably guess from the cover, focuses mostly on music. The music they listen to and the instruments they play. Deviating from the theme, there's a particularly sweet story about a man who flipped his plane upside-down. Don't worry, it had a happy ending! Also how to open a coconut. Touching as always.
David B. Greenberger's ongoing chronicle of the residents of East L.A's senior centers. Elderly residents share their stories with David in the form of interviews.

More about music, from Mexican bands, to what's on the radio. Also, seeing the mountains for the first time and how the moon looks in the desert. These zines are perfect for people who like to learn about other people's experiences and the differences between now and then.
Dreams. David asks the residents about their dreams. Have they changed over time? Do the dream as much as they used to? How do their dreams reflect their shifting attitudes toward American society? Revealing and addictive as always.
Did the Future Turn Out Like You Thought It Would?
Certainly a hard topic to think about, but the residents discuss the subject with candor. Some were dismayed by their undiscovered talents, while many feel lucky to have met their partners and settle down. Reading this zine will keep young people grounded.
