But Quincy, they want me to pay in dollars or euros. Euros! They won't even be around in a year or two. What's wrong with English Pounds with the Queen's head on them? One of the oldest currencies in the world.

Irish publisher, John. Besides which, PayPal does the conversion, so let it be no obstacle!

Do you cover the Soft Boys' Underwater Moonlight (or Can of Bees)? Metro's self-titled debut (the one with the original version of "Criminal World")? Does early '70s glam rock "count" or do you define it as a separate genre? Are the Kinks insufficiently "obscure"?

None of these questions will stop me from buying the book. Better yet, don't answer them--I want to be surprised.

As I mentioned elsewhere, the direct musical references that come to mind in the book immediately are Toby Keith, Van Halen, and Siouxsie and the Banshees--each equally if radically differently un-proggy.

I'm very taken with my new toy, a Kindle Touch. Is it going to be available via Amazon so I can put it on there, Quincy?

Amazon UK, Jayne? Not in the especially near future (long story I'm apparently not at liberty to tell). A Kindle-compatible e-book version is supposed to be out presently (as is one of my first book), and I'll announce those as they are released.

Thanks, Quincy. Amazon.com will be the one to use, rather than Amazon UK, I think.
