Getting in Tune, Trott's first novel, is based on his experiences playing gigs with West Coast rock bands, from San Francisco to Washington’s Olympic Peninsula. Book signing of Rock musician and former music critic Roger L. Trott’s new novel, Getting in Tune. It is a wild romp through the world of ‘70s rock ’n’ roll and pop culture. Propelled forward by the whispered wisdom of the Who’s Pete Townshend, Getting in Tune follows the driven but erratic Daniel Travers as the 20-year-old guitarist drags his unwilling band onto the road in pursuit of fame and Townshend’s vision of the elusive Universal Chord. As Kathi Kamen Goldmark, author of And My Shoes Keep Walking Back to You and founder of the Rock Bottom Remainders, describes it, “Good gigs and bad gigs, girlfriends and groupies, poseurs and punks: Getting in Tune will ring deliciously true if you’ve been in a band—and deliver a rare glimpse behind the curtain if you’ve ever longed to be. Crank up the volume and enjoy Roger Trott’s wild rock & roll ride.” It’s the fall of 1976, and Daniel Travers’s life is a mess. His band, the Killjoys, is essentially going nowhere; the pills he’s popping are making him crazy; and the voices banging around his head have him convinced that he’s a bleedin’ quadropheniac. On top of everything, what he calls the Real Me, his true self, has disappeared—and he’s lost without it. Then the phone rings, a new agent offering a weeklong gig at the exotic Mai Ta ...

Section: Web , Web Apps , Websites , Google Seeing how Google has taken over almost every web service, it is no longer a shock to hear updates on Google’s vast range of products. Google has caught my attention with its latest enhancement on Google Books . In its efforts to further increase the usage of their Google Books service, Google has worked with major online Booksellers such as Books-a-Million and Borders.com to allow previews of books on their own websites. This means customers will be able to enjoy the convenience of previewing books of their choice without ever having to leave the retailers’ sites. This is a very useful service, particularly for the retailers, because they wouldn’t need to develop their own systems for previewing books on sale. Here comes the interesting bit. If you run an online book selling service, you will surely be delighted to hear that you can implement this feature on your own site by utilizing the set of API released by Google. This will greatly benefit small to medium online book retailers by having an extremely useful feature with minimal costs. A notable user of the Book Search API is GoodReads, a social book-recommendation site. Via [ Official Google Blog ] Full Story » | Written by Cheng Hung for Gadgetell . | Comment on this Article » ...
