Soho Days, Camden Nights : The Chronicles of a Failed Indie Rockstar - Andy Macleod

It's the summer of 1996, and Andy is stuck in a dead-end admin job at�a Soho picture library. His dreams of becoming an indie rockstar are�over, but luckily, he's found the Next Big Thing through promoting gigs�in Camden: a Norwegian three-piece who sound like ABBA meets�Nirvana. Plan B is simple, live the dream vicariously by managing them. And�when a record company shows interest, a door opens into an�exciting new world. The only things standing in his way are a total�lack of music industry know-how and his scary boss at work, who�disapproves of his extracurricular activities. However, as the clock ticks towards his 30th birthday, success�proves elusive. Everyone else seems to be making it, rival bands, ex-bandmates,�his old band manager, even the record shop where he�once worked has become famous. Andy fears he'll never escape the day job to live his daydream. But he also knows that in music, there's always tomorrow.
