<p>Forget Blur/Oasis and Cool Britannia. None of that actually happened. <i>Bad </i>Vibes is the true story of English Rock in the nineties. Written with wit, brio and no small amount of bile, Luke Haines recounts how it felt to ride a wave of self-congratulatory success in a world with no taste. <br><br>As frontman of The Auteurs, Haines tells of supporting Suede, conquering France, and failing to break America. Of knuckle-headed musos , baffling tours and a swiftly unravelling personal life. And of what it''s like to be on the cusp of massive success. <br><br>Funny, honest and ridiculously entertaining, Luke Haines attacks anyone within rifle range, and is more than happy to turn the gun on himself. <i>Bad Vibes</i> is a brilliant memoir from a man who tells it how it was - and how he wishes it hadn''t been.</p>
