  This is a technical guide, a "how to" guerrilla manual to help independent artists, bands and other creatives to maximise their sound, visuals, performance and online presence, using livestream gigs. 
  It is also a spiritual or metaphysical guide of sorts, since we rely heavily on channelling moods and feelings, using all of our senses, in mind, body and spirit. Such is the medium of music. 
  I detail what it takes to perform with consistency, to show up regularly with amazing new content - all of which can be reposted with outstanding organic engagement. 
  Get it right and you'll easily and efficiently make great sounding, good looking content which will grow your fan base quickly, and at the same time please the gods of all platforms, the mighty algorithms. 
  The main idea is to make videos on the fly (live) that can be reposted as curated video content. The big difference being, it was originally streamed: 
  The best engagement the internet can do.

  "Before my version begins to fade, 
  Let me relieve what happened today. 
  Today was not a lifetime of discrimination and shame, 
  But of celebration as a black man living in Ukraine." 
  - culled from the EPIGRAPH 
  A brave and explorative Artisan 
  Calm exterior but he was born a warrior 
  A Leon not bothered about territory 
  A Leon who hunted alone. 
  And a Leon who hurt alone. 
  With a free prefrontal cortex, he came prepared for learning... 
  And learn he did, as his memory campus would get soiled with complex realities. 
  In my first anatomy tour, all I saw were dry cadavers, 
  But by the end of my tenure, I saw my own fresh blood. 
  No tribal marks but you can tell he started out with an Afro. 
  And in this foreign soil, explorations were his special dish. 
  To-and-fro he evolved... and no, he didn't hail from the safari. 
  From a genial ark but he always kept his wits about him. 
  And when he stepped out, he was like a fresh aphrodisiac. 
  Through his eyes, you could hear all of his favorite tunes. 
  Black vanilla at his core as he had a thing for interfacing. 
  General with a stylus brush, 
  Hankie forever in the back pocket. 
  Like his paws, his heart appears four-chambered, 
  But on closer inspection, you see a fifth chamber a short distance away from the rest. 
  A blind Cub walking in the midst of hyenas, 
  With lesions so deep, they suffocated him where it hurt most. 
  The pages are filled with art and expression, 
  As I relive this once-in-a-lifetime experience... 
  Which shaped me into the man I am today.

  ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY QUENTIN TARANTINO 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is a 2019 film directed by Quentin Tarantino. Set in 1969 Los Angeles, it follows Rick Dalton, a fading TV star, and his loyal stunt double, Cliff Booth, as they navigate the rapidly changing Hollywood landscape. The story intertwines their lives with that of Sharon Tate, a rising star, and the looming influence of the Manson Family. The film blends nostalgia for the golden age of Hollywood with dark satire, exploring themes of friendship, fame, and the shifting nature of the entertainment industry, all within Tarantino's trademark mix of humor and tension. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “Brad Pitt improvised the line, "You're Rick fucking Dalton! Don't you forget that." He based this on advice he received from an actor during the early 1990s.” 
    
  “The film's producers faced challenges when trying to convince Hollywood Boulevard vendors to allow them to fit their storefronts with 1960s-style facades. Surprisingly, after filming concluded, many of the vendors asked if they could leave the period facades in place, as they had grown to prefer the vintage look.” 
    
  “Margot Robbie, who plays Sharon Tate, wore some of Sharon Tate's actual jewelry, which was lent to her by Tate’s sister, Debra Tate.”

  Audio Snaps Volume Two - the...

  Audio Snaps is a series of 100-minute audio books, each featuring a dozen or so stories from each of my five books. Black Vinyl White Powder is a bit different from the other books in that it was written as a continuous narrative moving through story after story. So the best way to fit it into the formula for the series was simply to read the first six chapters (later, I'll do the rest of the book). Black Vinyl White Powder is a history of the British pop music with insight into the recreational drugs of the the day and their relevance. Since I was there, and a part of it, it's very much written from my own point of view. The reviews when it was first published were exceptional, for instance - "One of the most authoritative, intelligent, diligently researched, 
  conscientiously indexed, and thoroughly unpretentious disquisitions on 
  the history of the British pop scene yet written." SUNDAY TELEGRAPH - "Napier-Bell provides a one-stop-shop education in what the music business – as opposed to the music itself – has always been about: get rich, get high, get laid." THE INDEPENDENT - "His preoccupation with trivia is what makes his book so compelling and informative. Napier-Bell knows that if you scratch the surface of pop music you will find more surface."

  The Game

  ‘The game isn’t what it seems from the outside. The game isn’t quite what I was expecting. The game doesn’t always work like the people on television think it does. The game is better, worse and stranger than you can imagine, and that is coming from someone who saw it all with their own eyes.’ 
  Ever wondered what really goes on inside a Premier League dressing room, what it’s like to train under Roy Hodgson, Roberto Mancini and Fabio Capello – and what happens when you kick a sandwich at one of them? 
  When it comes to football, former Manchester City and England star Micah Richards has seen it all – and laughed about most of it. In The Game, Micah shares his funniest and frankest stories from on and off the pitch, be it arriving at his first England training session with two left boots, attempting to supervise the infamous Mario Balotelli or winding up Roy Keane on Super Sunday. From how he spent his first Premier League paycheque and how he prepared – financially and mentally – for the day they stopped coming, to the euphoria of lifting the Premier League trophy and the physical and emotional impact of injury, Micah reflects openly on the many wins and losses in professional football. 
  Full of Micah’s signature cheeky wit, this intimate, unmissable memoir goes behind the scenes of the beautiful game and a remarkable life and career. 
  In this riveting autobiography, Micah Richards delves into the personal growth he experienced in the world of soccer, a sport that is as much a performing art as it is a recreation. His journey to success, filled with both wins and losses, is a testament to his resilience and determination. 
  For fans of Peter Crouch (How to Be an Ex-Footballer), Ian Wright (A Life in Football), Guillem Balagué (Maradona), Gary Neville (The People's Game), and Mark Noble (Boleyn Boy).
