Unlike so many books that start with a band on tour or reaching fame, this story starts with a young guitarist joining his first rock band; and then it follows him through 'battle of the bands' competitions, high school and college frat parties, to night clubs, and local TV show performances to plug his only record.
While so many books focus on the struggles of rock bands and their drug-related crash and burns; this story captures the heartaches, the humor, the pranks, and the misadventures that a high school rock musician encounters. The book also explains how the main character’s life view is formed and shaped regarding love, sex, drinking, drugs, social class, and the treacherous world of adults.
