"And you may ask yourself...How did I get here?" The answer is here in What Do You Say to the DJ?, a “slightly phonographic tale” just published by Andrew Marx and Dara Shifrer. Relationships and music might sound like an odd mix, but the authors have found the perfect pitch of pathos and humor in their series of observations on the time between the end of college and the I’ve-made-it moment…that never seems to arrive. Familiar twenty-something themes are unraveled through the authors’ e-mails to each other: falling in and out of love, resolving (or avoiding) family conflicts, finding a career that doesn’t suck the very will to live... It documents that moment when adulthood is still just around the corner, or down the street, or across state lines, or launched into space and orbiting your life. Behind it all, you get the sense that they’ve got a smirk on their face. The authors are also the founders of a live music review website, Concert-Central.com, and the interwoven story of the creation of the website underscores how music is their mutual opiate and a foundational link in their friendship. Through recurring email conversations about music and excerpts from Concert-Central.com punctuating the emails, the reader gains access to two of the liveliest music scenes in the nation (Shifrer in Austin and Marx in Boston). Between them, they have reviewed live shows to the tune of an astonishing 500 bands. In the end, the journey isn't even so much about living life as an adult as it is about just living life. The trick then is to find the place were you belong.
