    Cider with Roadies is the story of a boy's obsessive relationship with pop. A life lived through music from Stuart's audience with the Beatles (aged 3); his confessions as a pubescent prog rocker; a youthful gymnastic dalliance with northern soul; the radical effects of punk on his politics homework and trouser dimensions; playing in crap bands and failing to impress girls; writing for the NME by accident; living the sex drugs (chiefly lager in a plastic glass) and rock and roll lifestyle; discovering the tawdry truth behind the glamour and knowing when to ditch it all for what really matters. From his four minutes in a leisure centre with MC Hammer to four days in a small van with Napalm Death it's a life-affirming journey through the land where ordinary life and pop come together to make music. ; "Stuart Maconie is the best thing to come out of Wigan since the A58 to Bolton" - Peter Kay ; "The Perfect pop-fan's life...effortlessly articulate" - The Times ; "Sharp and funny" - The Guardian
