1. 1. So You Wanna Be A Rock & Roll Star

   How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Rock 'n' Roll Life

   

   A candid, wry memoir by a drummer that chronicles his band’s journey from Midwestern beginnings to unexpected mainstream success in the 1990s, detailing the grind of touring, studio life, and label politics while probing the economics and compromises of the music business. Interweaving intimate portraits of bandmates, the creative and interpersonal tensions of making songs, and reflections on the hollow and reshaping effects of fame, the narrative demystifies rock stardom and lays bare the costs, contradictions, and small satisfactions of pursuing a career in popular music.
