Before they graced the covers of magazines, adorned the bedroom walls of fans, and played sold out arenas, they were interviewed by The Rock Star Stories. For nine seasons, television show The Rock Star Stories has interviewed over 200 of the biggest names in the music industry. After a decade of crazy encounters and experiences, it’s the cast’s turn to tell their rock star stories.
Off the Bus and On the Record is a compilation of 22 interviews conducted over the past seasons, told from fresh perspective of the teens who encountered these musicians first-hand. Off the Bus gives readers a candid look into beloved bands, both on and off the camera. The book features interviews from everyone, including My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, Jack’s Mannequin, and Maroon 5. With a foreword written by famed editor Aaron Burgess, Off the Bus and On the Record is a must for any true music lover.
