Meet Your Blogger at BOOKS END in Syracuse

If you happen to be in the Syracuse area on Saturday, January 11th 2025, I invite you to stop in and say hello at BOOKS END, 2443 James Street in Syracuse. I'll be there for an informal meet-n-greet from 2:00 pm to 3:00 pm. You want details? You've GOT details! Here's the authorized blurb:

I will be at Syracuse's oldest bookstore BOOKS END, chatting with random customers and selling and signing copies of my books GABBA GABBA HEY! A CONVERSATION WITH THE RAMONES and THE GREATEST RECORD EVER MADE! (VOLUME 1). I will also have some of the THIS IS ROCK 'N' ROLL RADIO compilation CDs. Stop by and say HEY-HO, LET'S GO!

Syracuse's own Carl Cafarelli has been a freelance writer and music journalist for more than forty years. He is the author of the books GABBA GABBA HEY! A CONVERSATION WITH THE RAMONES (Rare Bird Books, 2023) and THE GREATEST RECORD EVER MADE! (VOLUME 1) (Syracuse Noise LLC, 2024). He has written for Goldmine, DISCoveries, The Syracuse New Times, Feral House, Routledge, Visible Ink Press, AHOY Comics, Fantagraphics, and Rhino Records.
