[bomp] Riot on Sunset Strip: Rock 'n' Roll's Last Stand in Hollywood -- is out!

[ItsBoss9@xxxxxxx]

The book I've been working on for the past nine years, Riot on Sunset  Strip: 
Rock 'n' Roll's Last Stand in Hollywood, is being released this week by  
Jawbone Press of London.  Arthur Lee of Love wrote the foreword.   There's about 
250 pictures, the book is 300 pages long, and it basically covers  all there 
records and Pop art happenings that took place in the Greater Los  Angeles area 
between 1965-1967.  It'll be available at all fine bookstores  and online 
everywhere.  If you are anywhere near San Francisco, L.A.,  Philadelphia or New 
York City, there are also some boss events to come to  (including some live 
music, DJ things, plus symposiums).  If you know  anyone who'd be interested in 
coming, pass this along.  Thanks, and hope to  see you this summer.  -- Domenic
