Caravan of Pain by Scott Alderman Pdf

Brace yourself for a roller coaster thrill ride as you join the Tattoo the Earth 2000 summer tour of America, the most insane tour ever inflicted on a continent. Featuring twenty of metal’s biggest bands, including Metallica, Slipknot, and Slayer, plus Filip Leu, Sean Vasquez, and the world’s best tattoo artists, these renegade outsiders pissed off all the wrong music business heavyweights but left delirious inked fans in their wake. Caravan of Pain is a rip-roaring music business underdog tale: compelling, hysterical, and cautionary. Its unique peek inside the world of music festivals, metal, and tattooing gives the reader a front row seat to a watershed time in our culture at the turn of the millennium. Told with candor and humor by the tour’s creator Scott Alderman and illustrated with memorabilia and never-before-seen photos, Caravan of Pain is a story of inspiration, persistence, and the dark side of following a dream. "...a rare chronicle of the era in which tattooing went from an underground activity to a part of the mainstream—a shift that Tattoo the Earth can lay claim to having energized. A highly entertaining account of one of rock's most colorful tours." - Kirkus Reviews "...provides interesting, hilarious and often harrowing insight into an era when tattooing was still largely an underground subculture and metal was feared by many." - Revolver "For anyone thinking of starting something like this it shows that you better do a deep background check into the type of people that you might be dealing with if you choose to move forward." - Kevin Lyman, Warped Tour Founder

Little Book of Caravans by Ian Welch,Claire Welch Pdf

Caravanning is without doubt the essence of the quintessential British holiday. Many readers will have enjoyed their first taste of touring in their formative years, as their parents travelled around the British Isles in search of sun, sightseeing and relaxation. For some, the experience will have been, perhaps, less than memorable but for the majority it will have ignited a lifelong love affair with the “box on wheels”. Whatever your particular story, it can be traced back to The Wanderer, the world’s first leisure touring caravan, commissioned by Dr William Gordon Stables in the mid 1880s. This Scottish-born doctor and author believed that the outdoor lifestyle offered by caravanning would bring health benefits and who can argue with his foresight? Come and join us on a nostalgic journey as we take a look at caravanning and help us celebrate 125 years of this addictive pastime.

Walk-Don't Run - The Story of the Ventures by Del Halterman Pdf

The definitive historic account of The Ventures, the world's number one instrumental group that had a worldwide smash hit in 1960 with "Walk-Don't Run." Their second biggest hit came nine years later with "Hawaii Five-0" but they didn't quit there, continuing non-stop on a fifty-year career of recording and touring towards America's Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Co-authored by Josie Wilson, mother of founding member Don Wilson, the heavily illustrated book contains data for over 50 of the band's sixties recording sessions. Angel Editing comments; "The manuscript is extremely well written. You can see that a lot of time has been taken to convey the facts accurately and chronologically. What also comes across very well is the human and emotional side of the manuscript. This biography is a definite must for Ventures fans all over the world."
