You’ve downloaded ‘She’s A Slut’ and bought the ‘Sorry Ranga’ T-shirt, but if you’re still gutted that term’s over at Summer Heights High, the November issue of jmag will top up that obsession. In our cover story interview, creator Chris Lilley takes us behind the scenes of the hit moco. He reveals the backstories of the characters and how painful it was playing some of them! There’s a close look at some of the Mr G: The Musical artwork and Ja’mie’s bitchy ‘Bogan Alert’ print-out, plus a one-off Summer Heights High poster, featuring Jonah and Ja’mie.

Chris Lilley will be signing copies of jmag and copies of the Summer Heights High DVD, at ABC Shops dotted around the country between October 26 and November 17. For dates, check: shop.abc.net.auabc.net.au.

The rest of the mag’s just as chockers with in-depth interviews. New-rave pioneers Klaxons talk about everything from Dr Dre to the Futurists; tour mates Missy Higgins and Tim Rogers reflect on their history together and the fans give prog-rockers Muse their toughest grilling ever. WIN! Fancy yourself as the next Richard Kingsmill? triple j and jmag have teamed up to offer readers the chance to program their own mixtape and get it played on the radio. Plus there’s a chance for budding photographers to win a pit pass and VIP trip to The Falls Festival in Tasmania, and an adventure holiday to Thailand geared up for one lucky subscriber.

Gang-rape survivor Tegan Wagner shares her advice for anyone who’s been a victim of an attack, or is concerned about someone else who has. There are tips for getting a summer job that can actually lead to a career, golf pro Nick Flanagan takes Josh Pyke and triple j’s Jay Whalley out on the green, and in the travel section, Operator Please and Damn Arms spill the misadventures from their tour diaries.

As usual there’s all the gossip from triple j presenters and bands alike, plus current affairs, news, reviews, and events to check out in the coming month. The November issue is available from newsagents, ABC Shops and ABC Centres.
