Since November 2001, Luke from YOU zine has been writing an anonymous letter to the people of Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, Perth, Wagga Wagga, Toowoomba, Bendigo, Chicago, Portland Oregon, San Francisco, Toronto and Glasgow every single week. Packaging it up in an envelope (okay sometimes a bag, sometimes a papier mache receptacle) and putting it in conspicuous places. To celebrate, he’ll be holding a YOU zine letter writing marathon and birthday party at Sticky on Saturday. Be the first to unwrap issue #520! Shake the hand of the hardest working masked man in photocopying! More importantly, give Luke a week off. Everyone who attends has to write a letter, which he will package up and publish as next week’s issue.
