Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A complete guide for assisting drummers in getting cruise ship gigs, and helping drummers maintain a high professional standard throughout their contracts. This 40 page guide contains pertinent information with regards to auditioning, musical environment, life off the bandstand, and a special FAQ and interview section which paints a clear picture of this fantastic and versatile job. A must have book for drummers starting their first cruise ship contract, or for drummers already sailing the high seas and looking to enhance their performance. Includes drum notations and 24 photos. Preface: You've finished practicing and studying from a drum book, but where do you put those learned skills to use in the real-world? How about show band drumming on board a cruise ship? It's the perfect gig to play everything you've ever learned (and more), continue growing and developing skills further while collecting a steady paycheck. A ship gig is the link many drummers need to get to the next big gig, and it's a stepping stone for many musicians to move on to high-profile jobs. Who goes directly to studio, television or Broadway gigs just by practicing and studying from a book? Who should teach drums without real-world playing experience? Who can afford new gear or drum transportation costs on top of student loan repayments? Ship gigs can solidify the foundations to obtain these goals through daily performances in front of 250-3000 people, and by providing an abundance of free time to practice and work on personal projects. Plus, it's a low stress environment - paychecks are guaranteed, meals are provided, and the rent is free. Musicians often need jobs after graduating from school or when steady gigs dry up, the main reasons I've compiled this guide. This book provides a window of opportunity for drummers and demystifies the unknown. The cruise industry offers many jobs for musicians, and it's relatively easy to save money on these gigs. For example, after a six month contract a drummer could have saved twelve to twenty-four thousand dollars, mostly due in part to free room and board. This doesn't have to be a lifetime gig, but one or two contracts could provide the financial boost needed to lift you to the next successful step in life. The show band drum chair is not for everybody, but it is a great opportunity for drummers willing to expand on their versatility and get paid while seeing the world. Good luck!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After years of working day jobs and making music in his basement, Jacob Slichter wondered if his dreams of rock stardom were a vain illusion. Then he was recruited by two of his successful musician friends to form a band that became Semisonic. Who could forget the smash single “Closing Time,” a runaway hit in 1998 that thrust Jake and his bandmates into the international spotlight and helped them sell over two million albums worldwide? But along the road to fame and success came bewilderment and personal chaos: How will we ever get a record deal? Which record company is the best? The worst? Do I really have to wear these ridiculous boots? Why isn’t radio playing our song? What if I have a panic attack right here on stage? What should I write on this fan’s CD? Am I famous? Why isn’t the video director getting more shots of me? Did I say the wrong thing during that interview? Help! So You Wanna Be a Rock & Roll Star is a telling and witty look at what happens just before and during one's time in the spotlight. Jake takes readers on a step-by-step journey of his evolution from fledgling drummer to globetrotting performer and proves to be the perfect guide—feisty and humbled—to the inner workings of the music industry and instant celebrity. So You Wanna Be a Rock & Roll Star speaks to all of us who dream again and again of rock superstardom and shows how one kid can go from picking up a pair of drumsticks to picking up a platinum record.

Book excerpt: Not too far away from the flea markets, dusty attics, cluttered used record stores and Ebay is the world of the vinyl junkies. Brett Milano dives deep into the piles of old vinyl to uncover the subculture of record collecting. A vinyl junkie is not the person who has a few old 45s shoved in the cuboard from their days in high school. Vinyl Junkies are the people who will travel over 3,000 miles to hear a rare b-side by a German band that has only recorded two songs since 1962, vinyl junkies are the people who own every copy of every record produced by the favorite artist from every pressing and printing in existance, vinyl junkies are the people who may just love that black plastic more than anything else in their lives. Brett Milano traveled the U.S. seeking out the most die-hard and fanatical collectors to capture all that it means to be a vinyl junkie. Includes interviews with Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth, Peter Buck from R.E.M and Robert Crumb, creator of Fritz the cat and many more underground comics.
