Publisher Description SHORTLISTED FOR THE ABIA BIOGRAPHY BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD 2024From a Newcastle garage to worldwide recognition, this is the remarkable story of two teenagers who grew up in Silverchair, one of Australias greatest rock bands.It all began in Ben Gillies garage - where three high school kids from Newcastle, New South Wales, created magic with their smash-hit single Tomorrow, setting them on a path to domination of the Australian charts, worldwide touring and fame.So much has been written about Silverchair over the years but very little has been said by the bands members. In Love & Pain, drummer Ben Gillies and bass player Chris Joannou retrace their footsteps from when they were childhood friends living across the road from each other, and share their wild, unforgettable and often hilarious stories from the rock n roll spotlight, along with the exhilarating highs and heart-wrenching lows they faced along the way. There was also all the love and pain that came from being in the band: the cost of fame and intense pressure on two teenagers who had no way of preparing for it; the complex dynamics of navigating friendships with each other and their relationships with friends and family members; the mistakes they made and the successes they cherished. Gillies and Joannou write with vulnerability and raw and blistering honesty, making for an extraordinary account of a band adored by so many.
