One Helluva Gig

by Kevin R. Doyle

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

GENRE:  General / Romance

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BLURB:

Rob Jeffers has it all: fame, money, and the life of a rock and roll star. Frank Peters is a regular guy, a newspaper reporter who just happens to have a passing acquaintance with the Great Jeffers. As Jeffers's career shoots up, Peters's fortunes follows in his wake.

And when Jeffers passes away at the height of his fame, Peters’s life begins a steady unravelling. Until a chance encounter on a minor story gives him a new outlook on the celebrity lifestyle, and new hope for his own future.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

EXCERPT ONE:

Off to my right, a slight, average-sized guy came running along. He was wearing the pants and vest of a denim leisure suit, a garish, flowered polyester/Hawaiian shirt with the first five buttons opened up and sandals. Skidding to a stop in front of me, he looked about as confused as I felt at the moment.

“’Scuse me,” he said, “is this the place for the concert?”

I looked around at all the people flocking in our direction, listened to the squealing of the collection of cuties on the other side of the door.

“Yeah,” I said, “but good luck getting in. The place is packed.”

“Really? Cool!” He took off his mirrored sunglasses, and for the first time, I saw the eyes that, in years to come, would stare out from a billion or so album covers.

“Hey,” he said, “you a student here?”

“Yeah, but…”

“You think you can show me how to get in? Like there’s a service entrance or something, isn’t there? I’m with the band, and I’m running late.”

I clenched up. One of the oldest con lines in the world is “I’m with the band.” But something in the man’s look told me to take a chance.

“I think I can get you in, but I need something in return.”

“Yeah?” Now the “guy with the band” seemed uneasy. “What’s that?”

“Well, you see,” I said, “I’m with the student paper…”

  2. Ally,
    I also want to thank you for hosting the tour for me. I have a question for readers though. This is actually a re-release of my first book from ten years ago. At the time I wrote it and began submitting around, I had no idea it fell under the genre of "rock fiction." I didn't even know there was such a genre. I'm wondering, on a scale of let's say one to five (one being lowest) how much people enjoy stories and fiction about music in general.

  3. I love documentaries so this sounds interesting.

    1. Tammi,
      Hmm. I never quite thought of it as a documentary, but now that I do, that kind of makes sense.

    1. Rita,
      One can only hope so. It's not my usual type of writing, but when the idea came to me I decided to run with it, even if it was outside of my usual loop.

      It was kind of odd that it came out of my computer, as it's far, far different from my usual material.
