Publisher Description: Joshua Ploeg is a touring post-punk vegan chef and these are his harried tales of traveling the Greyhound with sex crazed teenagers, shaving cactus with dull knives, being drugged by his hosts, eating at shitty restaurants, cooking for "artists", bad sexual experiences, a fellow bus passenger that stole a Gatorade and delayed the whole bus, and much more. Joshua deals with the most unpredictable of circumstances in his touring--navigating new towns, acquiring groceries, unknown kitchen appliances and utensils, and unpromoted shows. |
