  Taste in Music - Eating on Tour...

  Through original essays and engaging conversations with dozens of indie musicians representing several subgenres, scenes, and eras, food takes center stage in stories about being on tour and eating on tour and how this basic human necessity can create a sense of community and interconnectedness in one of the most mobile industries in the world. Based broadly on the subject of eating on tour, these entries each spin off into their own focused and exciting behind-the-scenes story, but all confirm what Pyenson and Bleeker suspected all along—food looms large in the lives of touring musicians, and it can be used as a gateway into understanding what going on tour is really like. 
   
   
   
  Stories that deal with the best parts of touring: meaningful cultural exchange, hospitality-induced euphoria, and the opportunity to build relationships around the world. And the worst: loneliness, exhaustion, estrangement from family and friends, struggles with disordered eating, and unsteady access to medical care. 
   
   
   
  So the question isn't, "How was tour?" It's, "What do you eat on tour?" Like the best songs or meals, these conversations and essays evoke something central about the human experience. They show us all the ways that music and food bring us together, break us down, lift us up, and add color to our lives.

  In praise of make-up: from...

  Camille Saint Jacques

  Pourquoi les femmes se maquillent-elles ? Les réponses des intéressées sont souvent évasives : «Pour se sentir bien...» Pourraient-elles cesser de se farder ? «Non !» L'idée de ne plus se maquiller peut même être perçue comme une atteinte à l'identité.
  
  Dans un style élégant et lumineux, l'auteur nous plonge dans une histoire du maquillage qui démontre l'importance, depuis que l'être humain se civilise, du geste cosmétique. «S'arranger» est un art du compromis, de l'ouverture, un jeu bienveillant plutôt qu'un artifice trompeur. Derrière un rouge à lèvres, un mascara, il y a toute une manière d'être, plus nuancée, plus enchantée, moins violente que celle des hommes.
