Journal Entry 1 by rapturina from Yantai, Shandong China on Friday, February 16, 2007
A delightful book, very funny. I love all of Tony Hawks's books. :) From the backflap: "Rewind to 1988. Britain is in the grip of a phenomenon. Radios across the land blast out a new sound. The song is "Stutter Rap". The group - Morris Minor and the Majors. The man behind the fake moustache - Tony Hawks. Fast forward to the 21st century and Tony has left those heady music biz days behind. That cherished appearance on Top of the Pops is but a distant memory. These days music is just a hobby. That is until it is suggested that Tony is a One Hit Wonder. That he will never have a hit again. Ever. Really? Well we'll see about that... Over the next two years Tony battles against all the odds to have a hit, somewhere - anywhere - in the world. He changes act and styles with a bewildering lack of integrity. He travels to Nashville, song-writing capital of the universe; to Amsterdam for that elusive Euro anthem; to Eastern Europe to duet with a Romanian beauty and even to Africa in search of the ultimate melody. In his quest for pop immortality Tony leaves no stone unturned. But it's only after a chance encounter with Norman Wisdom that things get really strange. Is it really possible that together they could crash the charts in Albania? Amidst all the uncertainty only one thing is clear - in One Hit Wonderland anything is possible..." In the mail to Germanophile as of 3/21!
