Description

A fascinating oral history of the post-9/11 decline of the old-guard music industry and rebirth of the New York rock scene. Lizzy Goodman's book charts the transformation of the New York music scene in the first decade of the 2000s, drawing on 200 original interviews with key figures from the era. The story is one of cultural upheaval, as the behemoth music industry found itself in free fall, under siege from technology. Meanwhile, a new generation of young, web-savvy musicians emerged, drawn to the city's vibrant music scene. Goodman's book offers a fascinating portrait of this explosive time, from the Internet to a booming real estate market that forced artists out of the Lower East Side to Williamsburg. With contributions from musicians, artists, journalists, bloggers, photographers, managers, music executives, groupies, models, movie stars, and DJs who lived through this pivotal moment, Meet Me in the Bathroom is a compelling and insightful look at the birth of a new era in modern rock-and-roll.
