{"product_id":"good-night-the-pleasure-was-david-grubbs-9781478015543","title":"Good Night the Pleasure Was Ours","description":"With \u003ci\u003eGood night the pleasure was ours\u003c\/i\u003e, David Grubbs melts down and recasts three decades of playing music on tour into a book-length poem, bringing to a close the trilogy that includes \u003ci\u003eNow that the audience is assembled\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Voice in the Headphones\u003c\/i\u003e. In \u003ci\u003eGood night the pleasure was ours\u003c\/i\u003e, the world outside the tour filters in with eccentric sparseness. From teenage punk bands to ensembles without fixed membership, and from solo performance to a group augmented by digital avatars, Grubbs presents touring as a series of daily dislocations that provides an education distinctly its own. These musicians' job is to play that evening's gig--whether to enthusiastic, hostile, or apathetic audiences--and then to do it again the next day. And yet, over the course of the book's multidecade arc, Grubbs depicts music making as an irreversible process--one reason for loving it so.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Grubbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1478015543\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781478015543\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Duke University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/26\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.44d","brand":"David Grubbs","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44054322774271,"sku":"9781478015543","price":94.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_704ea04f-6657-4705-af0b-4508ac6796df.jpg?v=1685029286","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/good-night-the-pleasure-was-david-grubbs-9781478015543","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
