About this product

Product Information

How do you land a sweet six-figure marketing gig at the hallowed record label known for having signed everyone from Led Zeppelin to Stone Temple Pilots? You start with a resume like Dan Kennedy's: * Dressed up as a member of Kiss every Halloween * Memorized Led Zeppelin IV at age ten * Fronted a lip-sync band in junior high * Worked as a college DJ while he was a college drop-out In his outrageous memoir, McSweeney's contributor Kennedy chronicles his misadventures at a major record label. Whether he's directing a gangsta rapper's commercial or battling his punk roots to create an ad campaign celebrating the love songs of Phil Collins, Kennedy's in way over his head. And from the looks of those sitting around the boardroom, he's not alone. Egomaniacs, wackos, incompetents, and executive assistants who know more than their seven-figure bosses round out this power-ballad to office life and rock and roll.

Reviews
"Rock On" is way more than a hilarious take on the record industry. It is a darkly funny exploration of contemporary American society.", Seeing the world through Kennedy is like smoking some magical drug that makes everything hilarious in ways that cannot be explained. Simple and effortless, small moments turn into ridiculously funny failures in ways that feel so true, you'd swear these were your own most embarrassing moments., "Dan Kennedy is the laugh-out-loud Proust of American post-youth strivers. In "Rock On" he cements his status as master of the hysterical inner monologue, laying bare the music biz with an effortless, beyond-hip immediacy that is impossible to resist."
