Macaroon Shindig is a seven year-old print zine (perzine) written and published "as often as necessary" by full-time college student Katherine M. Hill. Since its introduction to the world in September 2000, MS has toured with Warped Tour's zine booth (2002-2003), delved into a wide range of features, and attended zine symposiums. More than 50 issues have been published, and the numbering system was re-set in January 2005. While the zine has changed dramatically over the years in appearance and content, the message and style remain the same.

New Content!
In addition to weekly content on the Winsome Icarus [Blog], there's a new article! It's about faith. Sort of. Not really.
Hey!!
I'll be moving out of my apartment through early June and may be slow to respond to your e-mails. I'll stay on top of correspondence and zine orders but I might not be as lightning fast as I have been in the past. :) Welcome in advance, FNP readers! (31.05.08)

Issue #6
The new issue is finished! Two articles are in the features section, a web version is available for download (macaroonshindig.com/MS6.pdf), and print copies will be available in the Etsy shop soon. There will be a limited run of this issue in efforts to lessen my enviornomental impact and as the result of limited financial funds (three cheers for collegiate studies!) This issue includes interviews with Olympia, Anberlin, and the Graduate. (01.05.08)

NEW FEATURE!
A review of Minus the Bear's show last Wednesday at the Black Cat, in Washington, DC has been added to the features section as a web-exclusive. The article is a little more personal than a review, but the show was great and I think that's really the point. If Minus the Bear is coming to your town, I recommend you check them out--I think all of the albums are great anyway--the shows are engaging. I'm not very good at dancing but I let my inhibitions go for MTB. The group's newest album, Planet of Ice, is out now.
