Preview Fifty Thousand Bong Hits: Tales and Misadventures of an Underachieving Musician
"Dred wrote a book. I read it. My 15-year old niece, Jasmine, who calls herself 'Blood Angel' wrote a book, too. It's called 'I Hate Everything That Isn't Black.' I like hers better. She's also my pot dealer."-Michael Visceglia, bassist and writer of one book of interviews with other bass players. And not like Dick Cavett where the questions are like a paragraph long, or Studs Terkel where the interviews are woven into a historical narrative. No. It's pretty much like, "What strings do you use, dude?"A funny and irreverent collection of autobiographical stories chronicling the life and times of musician Dred Scott. From his rebellious catholic school years, to gigs with famous artists like Patti Smith, Courtney Love, and Mary K. Blige. Chance encounters with celebrities like Lou Reed, Paul Shaffer, and Amy Sedaris. Weed-fueled misadventures with random denizens of New York City. Tales of travels, family, at least one hooker, and two marriages. Nate Chinen of the New York Times calls Dred Scott "...a sly pianist-raconteur." Drummer Anthony Pinciotti remarks, "50,000 is a gross underestimation."
