Rock and Roll Tourist

An insider’s trip into the secret world of touring musicians, this chronicle follows the author as he travels the world—from places such as Memphis and Nashville to Amsterdam, Reykjavik, and Brussels—to experience the lifestyle of performers and their fans. His journey takes him across continents as well as backstage to hang out with Franz Ferdinand, Anthrax, B. B. King, Jerry Lee Lewis, and many others. These musicians' stories, travel tales, and minor and major mishaps are brought to life in this witty memoir that embodies the thrill of being in the audience as well as what life's like on the rock-and-roll road.
