A rock musician's life is glamorous, but it is also a winding road of learning and discovery with no clear road signs to guide by. This book broadly paints this unique journey via the words of those who have done it and have much to share following both successes and failures ... or at least stuff to vent about. This book - written by a musician and label owner known for his music crossword book series - goes deep inside the music business and into the musician's life, looking for the real struggle, real life and real feelings. It tries to paint the otherwise invisible street signs as it charts the life of a musician from learning an instrument to being in a band to breaking up, quoting both mainstream and indie musicians. While the book may be focused on the heavy metal/hard rock experience, the story it tells is actually one any struggling or successful working musician will relate to. This is unlike any other music quote book around and is more than a collection of thoughts but an education.
