Some books from the first printing had a binding problem, and our solution was to change the binding in the second edition and offer replacement books to anyone affected by this defect. Please detach and send your cover to the address printed on the flap, and we will send you a shiny new more durable copy of TOUCH AND GO. Thank you! We are sorry to hear that.

I have come across the lot of anthology books which end up being a taint(ed) version of the original material. Down to the paper stock this thing sticks to the wall like the piece of shit it originally was (joke). Touch & Go (zine & label), along with Dischord, have remained major inspirations and business models I have held close and gained so much intangible insight from. Every bit of it means alot. Thanks for putting your pens and fuckin straight up resourceful enthusiasm to the stone. This is the holy book. (root word: FUCKIN FAN!) take it easy, Rob ps a friend recently sent me a pile of 999 in the mail. i dunno why but they flew under my radar for a long time.

Feel free to order the book through your local bookstore, however. Bazillion Points books are distributed in the UK by Turnaround Publisher Services, and you should be able to buy Touch and Go off the shelf or special order anywhere books are sold.
