For 33 days in the summer of 1987, Divine Weeks toured in a beat up old
Ford Econoline Van, sleeping on strangers' floors, never sure they'd make enough
gas money to get them to the next town. This deeply personal, coming of age, on
the road memoir follows critically acclaimed 80s indie alt rock band Divine
Weeks' first tour. Liberated from alcoholic upbringings and rigid cultural
constraints, all they have is their music and each other's friendship. The road
is filled with yuppies, brothels, riots, sleeping on floors, spiked drinks, DJs
with no pants, and battles with racism. They set out on the road to discovery to
drink in all they could and maybe sell a few records. They grew up instead.
