About the book: 2021 / “It’s unlikely that our listeners seriously believe that every day from morning to evening we walk around in elven outfits with serious faces, We fly on dragons and drink only well water. First of all, “Epidemic” is precisely a rock band with all the ensuing consequences.” This ironic and honest book was written by the guitarist of the metal band “Epidemic” Dmitry Protsko. If you're interested in how musicians live between shows, what they face on tour, and how they come up with songs, then you'll love these stories! From performances in post-Soviet cultural centers to a tour of Japan, from setting up equipment to autograph sessions, from rehearsals to long journeys and flights - here is everything that every rocker has to deal with. There is also a special surprise for fans: the book contains many unique archival photographs, and at the end you will find a whole “Explanatory Dictionary of linguistic terms and speech patterns used by the musicians of the Epidemic group in communication. Intended to serve to facilitate intercultural communication between representatives of Homo Sapiens and Homo Epidemicus." Publishing layout saved in PDF A4 format.
