Andrew Mueller is Australian by birth, a Londoner by choice, a
wanderer by nature, and a journalist by profession. Unable to
decide between being a rock critic, travel writer, or foreign
correspondent, he hit upon the novel, if time-consuming, solution
of trying to be all three at once. In "Rock and Hard Places,"
published originally in the U.K. in 1999, now re-envisioned and
updated and available for the first time in the United States, he
travels to Lebanon with the Prodigy, comes to America with
Radiohead, and goes all over the place with U2. He ventures to
Bosnia Herzegovina with an aid convoy in the middle of the war,
sees Def Leppard play in a cave in Morocco, and attempts to ask the
Taliban not only what they think they're up to, but who they fancy
for the World Cup. He flings himself head first down the Cresta
Run, sits in Stalin's armchair, chases ambulances through Moscow,
chases some kind of lost tribe in India, wakes up at least once in
a park in Reykjavik, and strongly advises avoiding the seafood
salad in Sapporo Airport. He's funny. Occasionally he makes a
point.
