The weird thing about the Replacements, though, is that people love them even more for being dicks. I guess that's kind of what I meant. I agree, though, that the book doesn't portray everyone as saints; it's just that there's a tone of awe to most if not all of the portraits.

What I was trying to say when I mentioned the timing, etc. was that I know that the all-female bands generally came after this, it's just that the absence of a female presence really stood out to me. Not a deficiency in the book, exactly, but it troubles me a bit that indie rock was no different from any other era in that respect. I'm not sure it's changed still, although I think it's better. So that's something outside of the book, but something I was thinking about as I read it.
