This is a good read, but not as good as his first, PADDLE TO THE AMAZON.

I guess no one else reads?

I do…though I try to avoid non-fiction if I can.

alright so far, nothing spectacular

I just started this:

sorry - I was outside watching the contrails over my house.

I bought this a few months ago, but just got around to it:

It's basically an account of the making of that Rise Above CD and the tour that followed. Kind of like Get In The Van , but 20 years later.

Noticia de un Secuestro - Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Finally, a book we can all use:

This book is a lot more academic than it appears. Contributions include "White Trash Alchemies of the Abject Sublime: Country as 'Bad' Music", "The Flight from Banality", "A Moment Like This: American Idol and Narratives of Meritocracy", "Extreme Noise Terror: Punk Rock and the Aesthetics of Badness", and (potentially the richest) "Much Too Loud and Not Loud Enough: Issues Involving the Reception of Staged Rock Musicals."

Let's see…lately I've read:

reading is a wonderful relaxant to life's middle problems in that road called reality. but be careful on forks of folks, before the public enemy terror squad comes calling this way, since they smell no hints of the musical genre in these posts.

Recently finished (and would recommend) this:

Have been avoiding reading this, but picked it up last weekend because I'm sick of hearing people talk about it and I want to see what all the hoo-haa is about:

His diary-type books are all great. "Get in the Van" is one of my favorite books ever. "Smile, You're Travelling" and "Do I Come Here Often?" are also excellent. He's just an interesting person, for whatever reason. However, I can't stand his poetry stuff. Christ, its horrible, actually.
