I can't really quote any particular part as the whole absurdity builds up. If you have either some interest in rock/pop music or any in how it's made then definitely read.

 

Or if you're just looking for some tips for making your own music, the author has some here. "Eyes Before Ears Except After See?" and "5 Points of Degradation" are some seem-like-obvious after the fact reads that I can recommend.

I read the parts that are available online.

 

Unfortunately for Mixerman and his publisher, I'm not going to buy the book.

I may have at the beginning, but in the long run I began to feel tired. For one thing, not being a native speaker, I realized that some of the humor fell flat, as it's bound to do when your brain clicks a little later than it's supposed to: potentially killer punch lines become humor of the "oh, now I get it" variety... and sometimes I don't even get it (for instance, much as I tried, I couldn't see the pun behind the "Paulie Yore" nickname).

Then, I got uneasy at the whole "excrement avalanche" concept... having gone myself through an ill-fated project endowed with a massive budget and incompetent management, I started having unhappy memories that spoiled even more of the fun.


All in all, it was still a funny read, so thanks for the pointer.
