Gratitude in the U.K.

4 days ago | danozzi.substack.com | Dan Ozzi

FAHRENHEIT-182 has now been out for a month. There’s a line in the book where Mark says he is driven by the desire to create things that make people happy. But writers don’t often get to see the happiness a book brings people in real life. Reading and writing are solitary experiences. Sure, people have told me they’ve enjoyed my books and I’m inclined t…

If These Balls Could Talk

Thanks to all the folks who joined the live chat on Sunday. It was a learning experience for sure. The main thing I learned is that I should not position the camera to be pointing straight up my nose. I asked how people would feel about a music book club on Zoom or some sort of live chat this summer. Maybe monthly, maybe quarterly.…

Signed book giveaway!

Hello! I’ve been promising you, the ZERO CRED elite, a FAHRENHEIT-182 giveaway. So here I am, writing to you from book tour where I have been losing track of days, to deliver on that promise. We’ve been having the best time, planes-trains-and-automobiling it around the East Coast, doing our shows and making our jackoff jokes and selling our books. We hav…
FAHRENHEIT-182 is out now!

1 month ago | danozzi.substack.com | Dan Ozzi

Three years ago, I got coffee with Mark Hoppus and he asked if I’d help him write his memoir. Actually, he opened a blank notebook on the table, put his pen to the first line, and said, “Okay, Dan, how do I write a book?” For three years I guided him up the mountain like a word sherpa, making sure he never stumbled. And at a certain point he found his footing and took off running. It was truly a joy and an honor to be along for the journey. Today, at long last, FAHRENHEIT-182 is out in the world.
No bad omens.

Hello to the ZERO CRED elite! Whether you upgraded after last week’s one dollar sale or you’ve been around since the beginning, thanks for being here. On Sundays, I usually go long and blab about whatever’s going on that week, either on a personal level or just in the world of music and/or books. My opinions are usually 35% worse than normal and are not…
An Interview with Everclear's Art Alexakis

Welcome to ZERO CRED, the only music newsletter ever to exist. Subscribe today and get new posts sent to you for free. Or upgrade this week for just $1 a month. Today’s edition is an interview about one of my all-time favorite records. Every magazine article I read in the 90s portrayed success as something that just sort of happened to alternative rock bands. Nirvana magically got plucked out of suburban obscurity and accidentally sold a bajillion records.

But for the first time I think ever, I’m dropping a polite reminder that you can upgrade to a paid subscription which helps me immensely. And to celebrate next week’s release of FAHRENHEIT-182, the book I co-wrote with Mark Hoppus, I’m running a big subscription sale.
