We Never Learn, by Eric Davidson (New Bomb Turks)
This is 1 of the top books of 2011 easily. It's a look back at punk bands (mainly garage-y) from about '86 to '00. It's informative, funny, and fairly comprehensive. Anyone else read it?
There's an interview w/ Eric in my Blog (I just found out about this group 5 minutes ago).

Yeah, I think it's a pretty good intro for those who weren't around in the 90s. Eric's an enthusiastic writer, as well as a super frontman.
There's an interview w/ him in One-Chord e-zine here on the Hideout.

Great Book, I found Davidsons use of prose initially abit abrupt but the content was ace as well as all the nuts-and-bolts of being in bands, recording, touring and getting ripped-off. I watched an interview on youtube and Davidson said that the book was originally bigger. Maybe in the future it could be re-released as an expanded edition or a kindle/pdf only type thing?

Yeh, that'd be killa! It had a link to a site that had excised material on it, but the site no longer exists. I never hear enuff o' band anecdotes, myself.

Glorious MoonRockets posted a blog postMore Other Stuff
In our long standing tradition of laziness and neglect, we've been absent from reality and derelict to any responsibilities we may have had. We've been buried in a pile of empty beer cans, dirty clothes and our own filth as we rode out the winter months, (and most of the spring as well), and now we emerge bleary eyed and disheveled with nothing to show for the wasted time save for this crappy new ep, More Other Stuff...you can check it out here…See More
