   Reviews:\"KILL THE MUSIC is a frank and funny memoir of Plumides\' days as a pioneering college radio deejay and club owner in the scarlet red states. It\'s a love letter to the real ideals of rock; a steamy love letter, heavy on raunch, but that\'s exactly as it should be. Call it \'Fear and Loathing in the Times of the Parent Music Resource Center\'.\"-Insite Magazine - John B. Moore - Atlanta GA\"KILL THE MUSIC may be the most interesting memoir written this year by a guy you\'ve never heard of.\"-Neufutur.comProduct DescriptionKILL THE MUSIC is the true story of a girl-crazy college radio idealist and his relationships between family, friends, enemies and the politics of the music scene. Set in the \"Bible Belt\" during the late 80\'s, this poignant account explores his experiences as a college radio deejay at WUSC-FM, and the owner of the ill-fated 4808 Club in Charlotte, NC. Depicting candid conversations with legendary rock stars, tales of sexual liaisons, and the ins and outs of concert promotion, KILL THE MUSIC is a no-holds-barred comedic, skewed, enlightening, and sometimes sad look into a past not so long ago, and how oddly our society is connected through media.
