Description
In 1970s Blackpool, a teenager heard punk rock and his life changed forever. He never looked back.
Join musician, broadcaster and writer John Robb for a riotous conversation about Punk Rock Ruined My Life, the memoir of a one-man cultural phenomenon.
Minister for the Counterculture, Mancunian mainstay and alternative national treasure, Robb has spent fifty years on the cultural frontline: from DIY gigs in Blackpool to touring the world with The Membranes; from being the first journalist to interview Nirvana to discovering The Stone Roses for Sounds; from early encounters with The Jesus and Mary Chain and the Manics to documenting legends from Mark E. Smith to Patti Smith.
Riotous stories. Deep friendships. A triumphant blueprint for a punk rock life.
