It’s been nearly a decade since four Florida teenagers started interviewing musicians who came through town for their TV show, The Rock Star Stories. The budding Lester Bangs compiled 22 of their favorite interviews for Off The Bus And On The Record–featuring candid interviews with the likes of members of My Chemical Romance, the Academy Is…, Cobra Starship and, well, 19 more bands.

Check out their video intro below and an exclusive excerpt from the book, out in June on Zest Bookshere.
