Description
Cider with Roadies is a life-affirming story of obsession and discovery, tracing the author's journey through the world of pop music. From his earliest encounters with the Beatles as a three-year-old, to his teenage years as a prog rocker and his later experiments with punk and northern soul, Stuart Maconie's life has been shaped by music.
Along the way, he's had his share of wild adventures, including a memorable encounter with MC Hammer and a four-day road trip with Napalm Death. But amidst the glamour and excess of the rock and roll lifestyle, Maconie has also learned to appreciate the value of simplicity and authenticity.
This is a story about the power of music to bring people together and to shape our lives in profound ways. It's a story about finding one's own path and staying true to oneself, even in the face of temptation and distraction.
