"A book of art, photography, and writing by rock musicians reflecting life on the road, plus a DVD of live footage, from over 50 contributors including: Devendra Banhart, Carla Bozulich, Jem Cohen, Electrelane, Erase Errata, The Ex, Explosions in the Skyand Le Tigre. Editors Mia Clarke (Electrelane) and Sara Jaffe (Erase Errata) invited musicians to submit work that moved beyond the traditional tour diary form to explore the manifold ways musicians use other art forms to explore and make sense of touring life. Some of the contributions were produced on the road, while others are reflective and after-the-fact. Some explicitly relate to travel and geography, while others capture a mood, a moment, or a state of mind. There are also shots of post-show floors, a story about getting tear-gassed in Siberia, comic strips, and much more, including a DVD of live performances, video travelogues, and on-the-road antics"--Www.amazon.com, viewed 7/18/2013.

A page-turning, Kafkaesque dark comedy in brilliant retro style, this graphic novel watches one man try to keep it together while everything falls apart. Upon the publication of his latest novel, G. H. Fretwell, a minor English writer, embarks on a book tour to promote it. Nothing is going according to plan, and his trip gradually turns into a nightmare. But now the police want to ask him some questions about a mysterious disappearance, and it seems that Fretwell's troubles are only just beginning... In his first book for adults in many years, acclaimed cartoonist Andi Watson evokes all the anxieties felt by every writer and compresses them into a comedic gem of a book. Witty, surreal, and sharply observant, The Book Tour offers a captivating lesson in letting go.

"An entertaining and informative guide to the rock and roll landmarks of Los Angeles, The L. A. Musical History Tour chronicles the clubs, hotels, studios, record company offices, residences and restaurants that have played vital roles in the lives of those who have made Los Angeles a musical mecca. The mystique and mythology of L. A. Rock and roll is preserved and presented in the photographs of these timeless (and sometimes time-ravaged) spots - not to mention Fein's commentaries on them. Want to know where Phil Spector and Bob Dylan first met, how love or the Go-Gos got going, the woods where the Rolling Stones rolled around for the cover of Big Hits (High Tide and Green Grass), where The Doors had an actual office, or where Roy Orbison is buried? It's all part of Fein's pictorial safari of the not-so familiar and extremely iconic sites that influenced Los Angeles' rich rock and roll history."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
