Steel Rainbow by Jordan Hart
Looking back at '80s Hair Metal, one thing is apparent--every band looked and sounded exactly the same. According to legend, this is because of a secret text written by an anonymous record label in 1984 that promised fame and fortune to anyone who followed it word-for-word. As the music scene started to change in the '90s, this text faded into obscurity, never to be read and followed again.until now. Here, in all its glory, is a replica of that original text, painstakingly rewritten word-by-word for today's retro music hopefuls to follow. The text, which covers everything from how to write music to how to dress, includes the following illustrated tips: On How to Look: Be sure to showcase your chest 75 percent of the time.On How to Write Music: Us exc ssiv mla ts in s ng titl s.Write a song for all the ladies out there, and declare it in the intro.On How to Play: Multiply the number of amps you need by six.
Hilarious and insightfulIt breaks down absolutely everything that's awesome and ridiculous (and awesomely ridiculous) from the Golden Age of '80s Hair Metal." —Daniel Wallace, New York Times-bestselling author of Star Wars: The New Essential Guide to Characters
