Hi, my name is Jonathan and i'm editor of Pinball Magazine, the new in-depth pinball glossy. Issue one is out and as I shipped more copies than I expected to Australia, I figured I take a look overhere :)

Cheers,

Jonathan

 %)% Jonathan, I listened to your interview on Topcast awhile back, how you went over to the US to work for Gene when he was running the Big Bang Bars out that would have been an exciting trip, even though you missed out on the assembly process by a few weeks.
Interesting club you guys have over there, how many machines are you guys up to?

My BBB trip was fun. Indeed not the assembly I expected, but still fun. Gene has many great stories to tell.
I stepped away from the Dutch Pinball Association a few years ago. I'm still a member but way less actively involved. They do support and promote Pinball Magazine :) They're in a new location now, where about 80 games are set up and about another 40 waiting to be fixed.
