Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
"The Bluffer's Guide to The Rock Business will enable you to bandy terms like 'per diems' and 'cross collateralisation'. It will help you sound knowledgeable about touring, media campaigns and advance/royalty rates. It will help you sign a record deal like you were Mark Knopfler's brother. Actually this is no big surprise as the Bluffer's Guide... was, indeed, written by Mark Knopfler's brother. As a founder member of Dire Straits, Dave K has been around the track enough to gain first-hand experience of the industry and charlatans out to fleece you at every turn, and everyone - accountants, A& R men, musicians - gets it between the eyes with equal parts wit and cynicism....It's all too accurate. "

From the Back Cover
"The rising rock star should sign anything, anywhere, anytime including body parts. Get that profile moving. Soon you will have progressed to carrying autographed photographs for just such occasions. By the time you are successful enough to be mobbed, there will be a fleet of people whose job it is to ensure that you are mobbed, and a second fleet of people employed to protect you if you are. Enjoy it for the three months it lasts."
