(from the back cover) "Three naive musicians set a course for reckless adventure at the dawning days of the internet. The Spinns (spelled S-P-I-N-N-S, as the band's members would so often explain), forge on through a series of drunken disasters before finding the treasure of their original, daring endeavor. Self Booked chronicles the lives of the Spinns' core members: Jolson, Rob the Slob and the author through the band's rise, peak days and eventual, crushing downfall."
