The Rock Bible book was a book I just happened to come across in all places.......a book store. This is a book that should of been written a long time ago. Very funny stuff. Makes fun of drummers, and singers and bass players, guitarist, keyboardist, tour managers, etc.... Now, I'm not much of a book reviewer,(or writer), however, I am a drummer (so give me a break please), but I found the entire book a hoot. Funny, but in many cases, so so true. I laughed in every subject title. I recommend this book to anyone who has ever been in a band, or been to see many bands live in concert. I also like the built-in book mark that this book has. Becaues it takes a drummer a long time to read a book that doesn't really have any pictures.........Drum roll please..........

A humorous little book for the rock n' roll music lover! This book features tons of little tid bits of so called 'advice' and 'codes to live by' for rock musicians. Aimed mostly at the garage bands & bands trying to make it big, on and off tour, this book is a comical read divided in sections by instruments. This book shouldn't be taken seriously though, its much opinion & humor, not real advice.

I found this book extremely amusing, and very fun to read! However the book is written clearly on personal opinion by the author and several friends. Although there are several funny things & things I agree with, there are also statements I don't agree with. Like I said before, this book shouldn't be taken seriously, it's just for kicks.

If you though some of the quotes from 'Guitar Hero' were amussing, you NEED to read this book!

I picked up this book in a Barnes and Noble and, was intrigued. Being a drummer, I imediately flipped to the Gospel According to the Drummer. Don't get me wrong, this stuff was absolutely hilarious, and most of it was true, but many of the witicisms were definetly not written by any kind of musiscian. For instance: "You can never lead the band from behind your kit" and "there is no such thing as a drummer/songwriter". Clearly the author has never heard of Don Brewer. But these few point aside, this book is excelent.

The funniest publication you'll ever read, especially if you're into live concert sound, live music or Pro Audio. Guaranteed, you'll never look at a live band in the same way - without laughing.
