Drowning by Numbers

London 1994. Blur and Oasis are in the charts. New Labour are on the near horizon. Ladbroke Grove is the place a thriving hub of art music and cultural diversity. Emerging from the wreckage of another lost weekend Indie Guitarist of the Year Joe E Byron hurries home on the Tube to face the consequences of his actions. Ten years on the road has taken its toll. He should be spending more time with Justine and the kids. Instead hes restless angry and in conflict with his manager and the rest of the band. Dark habits threaten his marriage and career. The curse of addiction that will rob him of everything. And at the heart of it all a yearning to be free to take off and never come back. But that cant happen. Theres too much at stake. Besides Hes a god. Hes a legend. And the only thing worse than dying is the prospect of fading away.
