Burning Ditches and Getting the Green Light: My account of the life and times of 80s 90s Nebraska original rock band Such Sweet Thunder

Burning Ditches and Getting the Green Light: My account of the life and times of Nebraska's DIY pre internet 80 90s rock band Such Sweet Thunder. 180,000 plus road miles, 5 states, 1200+ live shows, 6 albums and 8000 CD and Casette Sales later(1000 unit sales of the 8000 were in a town of 10,000 perm residents). Their music is currently out of print, but hear some samples at myspace.com/suchsweetthunder. Such Sweet Thunder were the consummate pre-internet guitar/bass/vocals/drums all original band, and one of the few to pay for their own way with their own original music(vs Pay to Play bands or those who relied on covers to pay the bills). FYI this is the biography of the band written autobiographical style by a lead guitarist and manager. It chonicles the Nebraska midwest career and recordings of Such Sweet Thunder and their late 80s early 1990s live/recorded/creative peak and beyond. As Scott Roth would say, Such Sweet Thunder was DIY when do it yourself was not cool and every band from the country thought that the machine of a "Big record company" would make them either the Next Bon Jovi or even the next Nirvana. Such Sweet Thunder went their own path. Read about it here.
