Summary
A thirty-one-year-old rock'n'roll guitarist decides to get married, only to begin an affair with Gretchen, a New York poet, and finds himself torn between letting his dreams die and having a steady gig. A first novel. Reprint. K. NYT.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Everything was going pretty well for Dave Raymond, a thirty-one-year-old wedding musician. He still lived with his parents (but came and went as he pleased)--and though his job wasn't exactly the big time, it paid okay and gave him plenty of free time to hang out with the other Wishbones, downing beers and quizzing each other on rock and roll trivia. Yeah, life wasn't perfect, but it wasn't bad at all.
Then he had to blow it all by proposing to his girlfriend...
