DETAILS

The Rock Snob's Dictionary is the brainchild of Vanity Fair writers David Kamp and Steven Daly, who originally devised it as a short feature in the magazine's music issue. The response was so great that the feature became a running series, and now it's been expanded into a book that features new material and indispensable supplements. The Rock Snob's Dictionary is as funny as it is informative, for it does something that no previous rock reference has dared to: not take rock fandom so seriously. Whether you laughed at Jack Black's overamped character in School Of Rock or sheepishly recognized yourself in High Fidelity, you'll treasure this book.
