'All the fun youthful dreams and the poignancy of disappointment...magnificent'. Phil Harrison, The GuardianA coming-of-age story about pursuing your dreams and what happens when reality gets in the way.It's 1992 and Andy (aka Horace) dreams of becoming a rockstar with his band, the Pointy Birds. The only problem is that his day job (mis)filing vinyl in a Soho record store is stealing all his time and energy, plus rival bands like Suede, Blur, Pulp and Radiohead are moving on to bigger and better things.But everything changes when someone called Ricky Gervais offers his services as a band manager, and at last the dream can start.Anoint My Head is the tale of a band who didn't become rich or famous, but had a manager who did. It is also the story of a musical era, documenting the rise of some of the biggest Britpop bands of the nineties, plus a comedian who went on to write quite a successful sitcom about a paper merchants in Slough. - Häftad, Engelska, 2026

It’s the summer of 1996, and Andy is stuck in a dead-end admin job at a Soho picture library. His dreams of becoming an indie rockstar are over, but luckily, he’s found the Next Big Thing through promoting gigs in Camden: a Norwegian three-piece who sound like ABBA meets Nirvana.Plan B is simple, live the dream vicariously by managing them. And when a record company shows interest, a door opens into an exciting new world. The only things standing in his way are a total lack of music industry know-how and his scary boss at work, who disapproves of his extracurricular activities.However, as the clock ticks towards his 30th birthday, success proves elusive. Everyone else seems to be making it, rival bands, ex-bandmates, his old band manager, even the record shop where he once worked has become famous. Andy fears he’ll never escape the day job to live his daydream. But he also knows that in music, there’s always tomorrow. 11 kr
