Whatever Start Here: What's in this issue, why you should read it, etc. Go to town.	Cover Story: The First Annual Good Citizen Awards: The Best of 1998! We had a whole bunch of know-it-all’s vote on their favorites in the local music scene for teh year just ending. We gave them no clues, but they surprisingly agreed on more than you might expect. See what you think.
Mia: Club Goddess In her third column for Good Citizen, our pal and gal around town Mia Sladyk laments the passing of Club Toast.	In The Mix Rob Psychotrope delivers his first column for Good Citizen. Every issue Rob will delve deeper into Vermont’s club culture and he’ll spotlight the mixmasters you should know.
The Importance of Being Strangefolk: The Good Citizen Interview, Part Two Burlington’s improvisational scene was given a major national boost recently when our homies Strangefolk signed on with a major international record label. What does it all mean? How will they handle it? And why is this just another step on the slow, inevitable path of Strangefolk? Andrew Smith sits the boys down at the Good Citizen office and they talk. You read. This is the second of two parts.	Nato We see the name everywhere. Nato this, Nato that. Who the hell is this Nato, anyway? We asked Matt Bushlow to find out just who this Nato cat is.
The Implants Out of Essex like a locomotive, ladies and gentlemen, The Implants! In true punk rawk tradition, four high-schoolers got together in a basement and wrote some songs. They entered the Buzz Battle of the Bands and stole the show. Chris Parizo sits down and gets the Implants.	The Words and Wisdom of Big Joe Burrell Our very own blues legend gives more advice. Read carefully.
Blue Prints Mister Charlie finally gets buried under an avalanche of local blues releases and he somehow lives to tell the tale.	David Budbill and William Parker Words and music get together and party downall the time, but maybe not in the same way that Vermont writer David Budbill and New York musician Willam Parker imagined. Matt Bushlow gets the story.
