Wish You Were Here: An Essential Guide to Your Favorite Music Scenes-from Punk to Indie and Everything in Between
(eBook)
"This book was really fun to read and I actually learned a lot. Wait a minute... Does giving a quote for this book mean people will know that I didn't actually already know this stuff? Lame." - Hayley Williams, Paramore "Wish You Were Here knows way too much about the history, minute details, and inner-workings of these 11 punk and indie scenes. I don't know how Leslie figured out all this stuff, but I'm changing my locks and checking the phone for bugs." - Tim McIlrath, "Rise Against" guitarist and lead singer "Anything you ever wanted to know about your city's indie scene (plus plenty of snark) is packed into these pages." - Alternative Press "In what has got to be the best guide book on punk rock… well ever, rock journalist Simon answers a slew of questions never asked about punk rock and indie scenes across the U.S.". - NeuFutur Magazine "Readers who are part of one of these scenes and fans of a particular genre who will be visiting one of the locales will find this a quick and useful read...an entertaining glimpse at nonmainstream music of today and the recent past." - Library Journal "The selection of indie music-centric cities is spot-on… Simon's text is knowledgeable… the book serves as a helpful jumping-off point for readers looking to learn more." - Publishers Weekly "Simon ensures there's never a dull moment...Rob Dobi's spot-on illustrations appear throughout the book as the perfect complement to her enthusiastic and hilarious voice." - Sacramento Book Review online
