About Supernatural Strategies
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 coloring 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.
