The Rock Bible - Unholy Scripture for Fans & Bands; read it?

See listing on Amazon.

Strangely enough, this ended up on my reading pile ;).

It lifts some cliche’s about how the Bible is structured and applies them in random ways to discuss some of the Truths of Rock. The first bit is a few-page overview of the history of rock, written in “begat” format like an old Bible - the research is dead solid, but the begats are just sorta strung together for the Funny.

After that, it picks off each of main rock positions - Drums, Guitar & Bass, Vocals, Keyboards and offers some Truths in Commandment form - some samples:

Pretty funny - and some are absolutely spot on (Drummers! Toilet Paper! Amp knobs!)

Anyone else read this?

Anybody? Bueller?

Looks like the literary compilation of all those musician jokes I’ve heard over the years. In the “How do you get a lead singer off your front porch? Pay for the pizza.” mold. Seems worth a look, I notice Patton Oswalt had his hand in it.
