a tale that seems timeless as music is
i read this book after i heard it was similar to daisy jones and the six well that recommendation couldn’t have been more wrong 
utopia avenue is a story of how music can bring people together, change worlds, outlive everyone 
the characters are so they’re own, it’s weird to say but they exist for themselves as themselves, they truly struck me 
as someone would loves to know what’s hidden behind a great song, what had spring it to life, it’s own story i was truly not disappointed, the emotions felt by the characters and their journey through life and early fame was so vibrant that you could feel it, the music that they made you could hear it through the pages 
this book is like a section of time and history put into words, the sixties seems now like old times for me
it’s a weird political book about wars that have ended and a new age that began and yet what is said is still true, maybe more than ever
you close this book just regretting that this band is fictional, even though one could argue you find utopia avenue into every music enjoyer out there
needless to say i’m in the search of my next ticket to a  live concert
