A rock ‘n’ roll tour is unnatural. You’re moving through
time and space too fast.

The experience is extreme.

Hi Edith Grove  thanks..." Lesson One  
"How  to  Manufacture  your   Rock  Stars Goo goo g'joob,"
Manipulate  the  press  minimize  the  possibility  from  them  ever
seeing  the  band  cultivate the  press  from  the   instant    
invoke  your  own  useless  Hype  suddenly  
you  have  become  a novelty  a gimmick"

Lesson  Two
Establish the  brand  name   but  at  all  coast prevent  them ( the  band )
from  playing   those middle age rock  n roll   tent   revivals
And  make  doubly  sure it was  the  band  that  got  blamed
for  not showing  up.

Post  on their  website   a  blurry  image  and  as  the   caption
include fun elements such as  ill background stories on
the writing of each song,a page of ‘Fast Facts’ about each one,
and ice breaker questions, features, website lists for locating
rock n roll  study tools,
information on each member.

Lesson Three
"How  to  sell    Your  over sixty rock  n  roll  tent  band
Find  yourself  a lawyer that  has  no  interest in  the  rapture
or  the  soundtrack  to  The  rapture But  that he  is   purely  
interested  in making  money.

He's your man!
(I wanna be your man please hold my hand)
Also assert  in  developing  the  highest  price,  and  that  he  never  never!  
Stray into  the record company ,  Now begins  the  task of  
interesting  the record  co. on  your  own  terms  and  get  
them  to  start  fighting  and  bidding  
against each  other for  the   group  in  fact  a  group  that  can’t  
play is  better  then  a  group  that  can
The  enormous  potential of  a  band  that  can’t play
is  unless in  this scenario.

Lesson   Four
DO NOT  PLAY DON’T  GIVE THE  GAME  AWAY!
Now  you’re  in  the  most  powerful  position  of all
one  in  which you  are able  to  sign  with  most prestigious record
company in  the   WORLD!
But  don’t commit until  the  last  minute  forget  about  the
future  get  the  most  money  as  possible  sign  on  the
dotted  line  through  a  big  Tent  Revival party  not  for
you but  for  the them  make  sure  it’s  a  spectacle  an
important  event  for  them  Than be  as  obstructive as  possible  
in  order  to  fulfill the  record  company  dream  that  they
obtain  the  bargain  of  the century  and  get  kick  out  of
the  premises  with out  ever playing  a  note .  BRILLIANCES !

Leson Five
How  to seal  as  much  money  as  Quickly  as  possible
From  the  record company  of  your  choice  Next  step
To  get   released  from  the   company as fast as possible  
give them  any  excuse  but  just  make  sure  you
Rip  them  off for  as  much  as  you  can
Remind  them  of  the  group bad   proclivities  and
Misbehavior  

Lesson  Six
How  to become the world greatest tourist  attraction  Firstly
never  trust  a  hippie and  that horrible  music they  use  as  a  
crutch with  those  bleedly   hearts  of stone  rock songs like
"Grandmother's Little Helper""Bypass Surgery for the Devil"
"Gimme Assisted Living Shelter"
"You Can't Always Get the Prescription Drugs You Want" "No  Sugar"
"When the Hip Goes Down"
"Faraway Eyeglasses" "Start My Pacemaker Up" "Time is NOT on My Side"  
THESE  SONGS  SPEAKER  FOR THEMSELVES they  will  wreak  
of  yesteryears  some day in  the  future

 look  for  the current event   If  you  play  your  cards   right  
you  can  capture the imagination of  the  world ,  imagine  
you couldn’t  hear  this  band play, you  couldn’t see or hear them on the radio  
if  you  wanted  to  buy  the  record  it  was  impossible >  
yet  the   group  had  become  public  enemy   number one
To  the   sic fends   leading  the  charge  of  decency .

Lesson  Seven
Cultivate  hatred  it  is  your  greatest  asset  get   the  public  
to  hate  you .

Throw  the  groups  name  away and  leave a  question  mark
in  it’s  place.  Create confusion  Say  the  band  may  surely
fail to turn  up  at certain  gigs  spread  false  rumors where  
they  will  show  up  encourage  their  fans to travel all  over
the  bloody  country without    never  having  the  slightest chance  
of  ever seeing  the  band  play

 But  above  all
Prevent  the  liberal press  or  the  right  wing  fringe  
from   deciding if  the  band  could  actually  play .

Lesson Eight  how  to  diversify   your Pop Rock Star Status
Why  remain  just a  rock  star ? expand  your  business
of  being  a  Rock  Star But,  Don’t  think  in millions  think  in  
billions    dollars  baby!
And  hundreds and  thousands  of  them  too. 

Start up  local offices  
and  bank accounts  over  seas  a  world  organization ,  
it  might  be  difficult to  avoid the  temptation  of working  
with  criminals engaged  in  embezzling huge  sums of money
from  international  wealthy corporations  


(Hi mom!)
Lesson Nine
Taking  civilization  to the bloody   barbarians  who  invented   rock  n roll
Be as abusive in  your  application at  the  embassy insuring that the visa’s  
would  be  refused   if  Not  , blame  it  on  the  Bloody  Press and  those
damn  hippie  liberals   demanding  freedom  of speech  the  
idea here  is  to  get  lost In  the  super market  spread  
lies  about  your  contagious  decease!  
Give  a  press  conference  at  the  deli   and  announce
the  Band  has  broken  up  expose   the  lead  singer  paint him  
as a collaborator , and  enemy  combatant   explain  that  in order
to  get  everything  you  have  to  sacrifice   something    

Lesson  Ten
Start up your  own  record  label  and  on  the  first  day  of  job  fire the  lot  of  them.

Lessons from The Sex Pistols rule book.
