April 2006 - £3.95
This magazine is aimed towards a typical punk rocker or for someone interested in the history of rock music. The magazine itself has quite a few 'old' musicians featured inside such as Van Morrison and Morrissey.
The front cover suggests that it can be purchased by either males or females but i think it is more directed towards men. Although this is so, there is a lot of pink inside the magazine itself and on the front cover (all of the main stories are in pink down the sides).
However, the kind of people that will buy it will depend on whats on the front. On this particular issue, at the top of the front cover there is a story about Morrissey which has a quotation of "YES, IT'S TRUE I AM IN LOVE...". Which i believe males may not be particularly interested in reading so could be bought by the female population.
Quite a lot of the pictures featured inside the magazine are in monochrome black and white. This suggests that perhaps the image is timeless and that what is in the picture is classic.
I think that target age of the reader would be 20+ as the stories featured include quite a lot of old artists that perhaps a younger generation may not have heard of.

ALSO,
Bob is a middle aged old man who sits at home with his cat and listens to rock music and eats toast. In his spare time he gets out his electric guitar, paints his face in the style of "KISS' and attempts to relive his punk rocker past. Bad times..!
