Description
Nancy Barile's memoir is a story of rebellion and self-discovery, set against the backdrop of the 1970s and 1980s punk rock scene. As a young woman, she found freedom in the music and the sense of community it brought, and she became a key figure in the DIY punk movement.
Through her experiences, Barile recounts the highs and lows of the punk era, from the early days of booking shows and managing local acts to the chaos and violence of the punk riots. Along the way, she formed lasting connections with other musicians and outcasts, and discovered a powerful understanding of human nature.
This memoir is a raw and unflinching account of one woman's journey towards freedom and self-discovery, set against the tumultuous landscape of the punk rock scene.
