JOAN JETT Book by Todd Oldham

Another really great book we received is the Joan Jett Book by Todd Oldham.  It covers her life story from birth to present day, chronicling her music career and a little bit of her early family life.  It talks mostly about the Runaways, her early influences, her solo career, album production, songwriting, touring with her band The Blackhearts, and her guitar sound and technique.  LOTS of pictures throughout--some have never been published before, epehmera (such as hand written song lyrics), and excerpts from 30 years of interviews.  Includes a forward from Kathleen Hanna of Bikini Kill.  This book pays true homage to the goddess of rock and roll, Joan Jett, who continues to inspire rock fans today.

HEAVY METAL COOK BOOK

Tons of new books have arrived at the store.  One of the best is this awesome Heavy Metal CookBook.  Featuring recipes from heavy metal bands around the world, it is filled full of favorite recipes from members of Thin Lizzy, Mayhem, Anthrax, Kreator, Sepultura, Destruction, Possessed, Obituary, Accept, Doro, Gwar, Toxic Holocaust, Saint Vitus, Amebix, Uriah Heep, Budgie, and many more.  



WINTER ACCESSORY SALE!!!!

Our winter accessory sale has been extended through the weekend!!  All of our winter accessories (hats, gloves, scarves, earmuffs, etc) are now 35% off through April 3rd.  It's Ohio, so it may still snow in April.  Or stock up for next year while saving money! It's a win-win.

Keep Change Local: July

The Fund For Zorro Kitty
Zorro is a feral kitten that we found very sick and weak, with severe anemia from fleas and worms. He has been treated for the parasites, and has been given IV fluids for dehydration. He is slowly recovering, but his medical bills are piling up. If he recovers, we would like to have him as our store kitty. Any contribution to his recovery would be greatly appreciated.  Please stop by What the Rock?! to donate some change for Zorro.  Thank you for your generosity!
