Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What I Did On My Rock n' Roll Vacation is the story of friendship, life and good old fashioned rock n' roll. It is a true-to-life fictional tale of a group of friends that put a band together, even though none of them have any musical talent what-so-ever. After being signed by a local producer as a national media experiment, to see if they could brainwash a nation into liking the worst band on the planet, they tour the country and grow up in the process. It is a wild and scary roller coaster ride through the world of music, life and living your dreams at all costs. The book features a foreword by music legend Ronnie Hawkins, and original quotes from some of Canada's most prominent musicians, written only for this novel, such as Brad Roberts (Crash Test Dummies), Safwan Javed (Wide Mouth Mason), Brian Vollmer (Helix), Joey Keithley (DOA), Tim White (Headstones) and Dave Bidini (Rheostatics).

Download or read book I knew the bride when she used to rock n roll written by Ricky Dale and published by Paragon Publishing. This book was released on 2021 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poltergeist meets The Sixth Sense? Because this ‘spooky’ novel is based largely upon true happenings, Ricky Dale has no need to run the gamut of pastiche and pulp to parody – which is sometimes true of many novels in this genre. Ricky’s novel is an original work and although very effective as a ghost story, it probably isn’t the ‘scariest’ ghost story ever told. Be that as it may, it is indeed the most charming and enjoyable emotional clout you are ever likely to undergo . . . ... in this life!
Download or read book Blood Sweat and My Rock n Roll Years written by Steve Katz and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-05-01 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On paper Steve Katz’s career rivals anyone’s except the 1960s’ and ’70’s biggest stars: the Monterey Pop Festival with the legendary Blues Project, Woodstock with Blood, Sweat & Tears, and even producing rock’s most celebrated speed addict, Lou Reed. There were world tours, and his résumé screams “Hall of Fame” — it won’t be long before BS&T are on that ballot. He has three Grammies (ten nominations), three Downbeat Reader’s Poll Awards, three gold records, one platinum record, and one quadruple platinum platter (the second Blood, Sweat & Tears album), not to mention three gold singles with BS&T. All together, he’s sold close to 29 million records. He had affairs with famous female folk singers, made love to Jim Morrison’s girlfriend Pam when Jim was drunk and abusive, partied with Elizabeth Taylor and Groucho Marx, dined with Rudolf Nureyev, conversed with Martin Luther King, Jr. and Tennessee Williams, hung out with Andy Warhol, jammed with everyone from Mose Allison to Jimi Hendrix, and was told to get a haircut by both Mickey Spillane and Danny Thomas. But his memoir is more Portnoy’s Complaint than the lurid party-with-your-pants-down memoir that has become the norm for rock ’n’ roll books. It’s an honest and personal account of a life at the edge of the spotlight—a privileged vantage point that earned him a bit more objectivity and earnest outrage than a lot of his colleagues, who were too far into the scene to lay any honest witness to it. Set during the Greenwich Village folk/rock scene, the Sixties’ most celebrated venues and concerts, and behind closed doors on international tours and grueling studio sessions, this is the unlikely story of a rock star as nerd, nerd as rock star, a nice Jewish boy who got to sit at the cool kid’s table and score the hot chicks.
Download or read book God Listens To Rock N Roll written by Nicholas G. Galanakis and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-09-30 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A five month period. A relationship doomed to fail. A friendship forged in the beginning of adult life. A rock 'n' roll tale filled with poor judgment, alcohol, recreational drug use and the definition of taking crazy to a whole new level. Most importantly, the witnessing of the era, that any smart person would like to be a part of, fade away, being replaced by a new revolting, empty and soulless way of life. To you, supporters of that lifestyle, I proudly say... God listens to rock 'n' roll
