Fading Rockstar Syndrome: Surviving Egos, Chaos & Bad Decisions

Every band is a disaster waiting to happen. Here’s why. Egos. Volume wars. Van breakdowns. That one guitarist who swears this next riff will change music forever. Fading Rockstar Syndrome: Surviving Egos, Chaos & Bad Decisions is a brutally honest, accidentally hilarious look at what happens when the dream of “making it” becomes a full-time circus act. Written for anyone who’s ever: • Played to an audience of five (including the bartender) • Tried to explain “artistic vision” to their drummer • Or simply survived the group chat from hell It’s part satire, part survival guide — a book that roasts musicians with just enough affection to make them laugh, wince, and keep rehearsing anyway. Why readers love it: • Dry, self-aware humour that hits a little too close to home • Sharp observations about creative burnout, ego, and ambition • The perfect “I saw this and thought of you” gift for musicians, bandmates, or anyone still chasing their loudest dream Fans of rock memoirs, creative burnout stories, and behind-the-scenes satire will feel right at home — and slightly attacked. This isn’t a roadmap to fame. It’s a survival guide to failure — louder, messier, and funnier. Finish the set. Blow the power. Leave ’em guessing. Book One of the Fading Rockstar Trilogy. View Less
