About the book:
Backstage Pass: Crossing the Line is a humorous collection of short stories and crazy-ass tales about getting into some of the coolest sold-out performances and underground rock concerts in New York City and around the world. Headlined shows, late-night happenings, impromptu jams—whether in a famous arena, diver bar, or legendary club—Bruce Christensen (or "BC," as he is known) has sought out the sounds of some of the finest musicians of our time. Some of his encounters are ridiculously funny. Others are just outrageously unbelievable. This unusual and entertaining book is a must read for all music lovers.
