The book, published on March 17, which also happens to be Auf der Maur’s 54th birthday, is already receiving rave reviews.
“[Auf der Maur is] refreshingly pure of heart, especially when describing her disgust with ‘the corporate takeover’ of alt-rock and painting an empathetic portrait of the oft-maligned [Hole frontwoman Courtney] Love. It’s a rollicking look at a bygone era,” wrote Publishers Weekly
As a cassette DJ and ticket girl, Auf der Maur caught such legends as Nirvana, Jane’s Addiction, Pavement and Sonic Youth while growing up in Montreal. Later, she found herself in the thick of that scene after her band Tinker was chosen for an opening slot for the Smashing Pumpkins. That led to Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan to recommend her to Courtney Love for her band Hole.
The bassist/writer announced her book tour in a post on Instagram with a graphic listing the dates, and a video of her speaking directly to her fans.
Fans responded to the news of the book and supporting tour in the comments of Auf der Maur’s post.
“Watch 43 year old me become an 18 year old mega fan girl come April. My inner teen is gonna get so healed. YAAAS!” added another.
