Mags + Music + The Boat = A Rollickin’ Good Time?

By Ron Nurwisah, Boy Reporter

Torontoist has written about upstart U of T publication the Naive Journal before, and remembers being impressed by the publication’s attempts to look at an overexposed topic (i.e. homelessness) with fresh eyes.
The Naive’s next issue, the zine’s fourth, explores the well-travelled ground of the consumer/anti-consumer debate. The editors at the Naive Journal recap some of the debate’s feister contests like U of T alumnus turned globe-trotting anti consumerist documentary maker Naomi Klein vs. cheeky, nom de plume using English “newspaper” the Economist.
If NXNE and Dan Burke have got you down then join the Naive staff for the launch party at the Boat. Seven bucks gets you in and lets you catch roots-rocker Jon-Rae Fletcher, all by his lonesome. Not to mention members of the S.S. Cardiacs, The Pauls, The BarMitzvah Brothers, Loitering Heroes and an unconfirmed surprise.
