Book Description
Slate Magma grows up in suburban America. Just like a lot of kids, he dreams of being famous. The problem is he’s too short and too thin. Despite this, he knows that someday his name will shine. As Slate grows up, he is introduced to all kinds of music. Then, as an older teenager, Slate makes a work friend who sings in a local rock band. Music is in his life to stay. When he’s twenty-two, Slate enrolls in the Army, but his pursuit of musical stardom never stops. During his service time, Slate learns to play the bass guitar and gets the opportunity to jam with other soldiers. When he comes home, he is ready to rule the rock scene. He befriends two other musicians, and their careers start in a Chicago Battle of the Bands. In this fictionalized memoir of Slate’s rise to fame, the bass player shares details of his whirlwind tour and all the backstage gossip shared along the way. Every kid has a dream, and sometimes, that dream comes true, as in the case of Slate Magma, who went from suburban Army boy to beloved rock star.
