Hang the DJ An Alternative Book of Music Lists

Mixing anecdote, humor, reference, and sheer dorkiness--but with the bizarre insight of an anthropological study in pop-culture--"Hang the DJ" is a collection of lists about musical loves, hates, dreams, and nightmares.

Angus Cargill works in publishing, but music has always been his true love. As a teenager, he learned to play guitar so that he could join his friends in Sticky Weed, a band so inept they struggled with even the most rudimentary Beastie Boys and AC/DC covers. He lives in South East London and has continued to play the guitar, badly, for the past fifteen years.
