Publisher's Synopsis
Bob Newhart, REM and Abe Vigoda are just a few of the many characters - both real and imagined - who populate the world of Captive Audience, Reidy's paean to the highs, lows and everything in-between of being a performer. From the opening story, the award-winning The Regular', where two lonely music fans bond over a most unusual kind of karaoke, to the final tale about an organ player who gets his big break with REM, this bittersweet and humorous collection of short stories gives voice to those who are driven to perform, no matter the size of the audience.'
