the drummer for Semisonic wrote a great book on the things they went thru and the music industry in general.

There is another good one called "We Owe You Nothing". It was published by Punk Planet. It has interviews with a lot of bands, that I felt, "Our Band Could Be Your Life" left out.

I'm interested. The book is "So You Wanna Be a Rock and Roll Star" by Jacob Slichter.

Steve Albini's essay The Problem With Music is a scathing polemic. It was written back in 1993 or so. If you think it's too long, just skip to Part II "There's This Band." Brilliant.

If the book is anything like this essay, I'll have to read it.
