Supernatural Strategies for Making a Rock N' Roll Group

Rock 'n' roll antihero Ian F. Svenonius provides an exquisitely provocative and deliciously ironic how—to guide for rock bands; new edition features a brand-new afterword by the author.

Ian Svenonius's experience as an iconic underground rock musician—playing in such highly influential and revolutionary outfits as the Make- Up and Nation of Ulysses—gives him special insight on techniques for not only starting but also surviving a rock 'n' roll group. Therefore, he's written an instructional guide, which doubles as a warning device, a philosophical text, an exercise in terror, an aerobics manual, and a colouring book.

This volume features essays on everything the would-be star should know to get started, such as Sex, Drugs, Sound, Group Photo, The Van, and Manufacturing Nostalgia. The book also has black-and-white illustrations. SUPERNATURAL STRATEGIES FOR MAKING A ROCK 'N' ROLL GROUP will serve as an indispensable guide for a new generation just aching to boogie.
