• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

After the break-up of Carter USM, Jim Bob goes in search of who he is, while constantly being reminded who he was. Whether performing solo acoustic ballads, writing novels or acting in a musical, he will always be - Jim Bob from Carter. At first Jim views his past as a burden, but gradually he comes to accept, and eventually to celebrate it. This is the story of Jim's extended gap year between the end of Carter in 1997, to their reformation in 2007 and break-up again in 2014.
Find out how bands choose their names, what it's like to be sworn at by Ian Dury, how it feels to discover yourself on a pub trivia machine under the category: 'Where are they now?' And why there isn't a prime time Saturday night TV show called Britain's Got Authors.
