all day
hiding from the sun
waiting for the golden one
waiting for your fame
after the parade has gone
outside was a happy place
every face had to smile like the golden face
for a second
your knuckles white as your fingers curled
a shot that was heard around the world
for a second
it took seconds of your time to take his life
it took seconds
The Human League - "Seconds", 1981

Hello folks...
...finally, after a break of one full year, we're back with another issue of
your favourite or most hated magazine, UNDERCOVER, and sometimes I thought it
will never be reality again after that "glorious" comeback with issue # 21.
So, how did it came that we had such a long break? Well, there are quite a lot
of different reasons.
At first I already started to build on my own house as we released issue # 21
and since this was more time consuming as I thought, UCM must step back behind
my building site and my family, once again. And as I checked out that it would
not be possible to release it in short time, I finally decided to lay it on ice.
So the time passed by and not much was done, two possible release dates, one
time around the Unconventional Party and the other one around Xmas 2oo1 weren't
hold. Finally I decided to set a deadline in March since I found some time in
February to clear up the things. So the biggest part of this magazine was just
done in February/March this year, including the things that were done long time
ago for the UCM 22 planned in summer 2oo1.
Another reason, and maybe the most important one, was the point that we got only
a very few supporters, the release of UCM # 21 brought not much feedback, even
if many people forced me to the step to go on with UCM before. Several people
announced me to help out with articles and stuff but finally only a few finally
did it. And since this lack of support my motivation to force the works even if
my time was shrinking, was laying down. In some way I must thank those two guys,
who wrote articles for UCM, even if they never knew what was going on with UCM
finally, namely those guys were Mad Butscher and Peylow... thanx guys! Lately I
have to thank my .tSCc. chaps as well since they ignored in the first time my
works for UCM # 22 nearly completely, but changed their mind this year and gave
me as much support as possible, esp. in a time that is very timeconsumpting 'coz
of other big crew projects.
But hey, end up that crap... with a lot of work we matched it and I'm happy that
we got at least so much support on the artworks side that we or better I was
able to concentrate on writing and organizing alone. If those people wouldn't
have offered their help, this quite fast release since the official deadline was
set, never would be possible.
So what? This UCM is again a damn mixed thingie, again with a lot of old craps
that were written before the big break. I hope you aren't bored too much with
all those old reviews and craps but I decided to put them in here anyway, since
it was a lot of work and I wont skip it.
But I hope that we can offer you some interesting views onto the scene again.
Unfortunately the heavy rush in the last two months, in working out the things
that were laying down so long, handicapped us much in following the roots we
started in UCM # 21.
Ok, we hope you like it anyway... and stop reading this boring editorial that is
just filled with lame self justifyings...
yours, moondog . ucm-main-editor from '93-'98 & 2k1 and beyond

update... Yes, We already have april and this damn magazine isn't finished...
Today I decided to give up in assembling all the missing files, that
means the rest of the articles I wanted to do, have started but after
all never finished. I'm totally fed up with the hard work since it is
eating all my free time since about 14 days now and I'm some kind of
burned out yet, esp. since the magazine is some kind of ready and
there isn't a real sense in the fact to wait some more days just to
finish some old stuffs... I think the things will look better if it is
out finally and I can lean back a few days... I already have enough
stuff in my mind I want to do for UCM 23 then and I must see that I
don't mix up all the stuff since in my mind I'm already working on the
next issue and that causes a lot of confrontations with this one here.
Yes, that's it! moondog . 1o.o4.2oo2
