Too infrequently do I use the pages of this blog to trumpet
the praises of somebody else’s work. I
can imagine that you, dear reader, often think to yourself, “This Foz. Is he so obsessed with his own self and his
own band that he doesn’t have time to comment on other fine work going on in
comedy and music?”
Yes.
But today we depart from your fascination with me to drop
the news of a fabulous new book from music journalist and Fozfriend, Jon
Niccum. You know Jon Niccum from ThisPost.
Jon is a fine and hilarious writer, producer of movies WITHAN IMDB PAGE, film critic, film prof, character actor, guitar player, member of
FtH affiliate band Bobby and the Chuxx (he is, in fact, Bobby), co-writer of
quite a few FtH songs (including Somebody Write Some Music and Whiskey What
Done It), screenwriter, and Storied Newsman.
He is also the only person, thus far, to bloody my nose with a hand
puppet dog named Hector.
Now he proposes to injure me again with a gut-busting
hilarious new book about the Rock ‘n Roll Life!
The Worst Gig is the product of Jon’s brilliant interview ice-breaker
question to dozens of Rock Stars, “Tell me about your worst gig.”
Actually, I don’t know if it was an ice-breaker question, or just a
question he always asked. For history’s
sake, let’s say it was a brilliant ice-breaker.
The Worst Gig is a book you want. So buy it.
Buy it from THIS GUY. Buy it, or
you are a dick.
FtH plays tomorrow night at Cole’s at 8:45. Come on by.
Don’t be a dick.
