Este no es el libro del Sidecar

This is not Sidecar's book, it shows us what Barcelona was like at the end of the 70's as it emerged from the mists of Francoism, the rapid evolution that took place in the following decade and the consolidation of a model that continues to this day. A journey through the 40-year history of a room with a transgressive vocation, seen from the point of view of the author, founder and director of Sidecar, from 1982 to the present. Roberto Tierz tells us about the adventures and misadventures of an emblematic place in Barcelona, which has been and is a space where several generations have found a place to unleash their creativity. The book collects a mixture of happy moments and others difficult to overcome where, in parallel, the transformation that the music industry, Ciutat Vella, Barcelona and its people have undergone is seen. Legendary international artists such as New York Dolls, Manu Chao, Nick Lowe, The National and other equally legendary local artists such as Siniestro Total, Sidonie, Love of Lesbian, Vetusta Morla or Sisa... parade through the pages of this book, with their most intimate anecdotes.
