Wakefield is a designer; she juxtaposed Zinner’s photos with Lipez’s stories of life in the rock and roll gutter in a really unique way. There is literally no way you could make this book into a satisfying e-book. It’s a beautiful artifact.” —\u003ci\u003eThe Stranger\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003ePlease Take Me Off the Guest List\u003c\/i\u003e is the latest in a series of creative collaborations by New York City artists and friends Zachary Lipez, Nick Zinner, and Stacy Wakefield. Zachary Lipez’s essays recount his adventures as a bartender, drug abuser, bookstore clerk, metal fan, miserable adolescent and relentless skirt chaser. His inimitable voice walks the line between self-loathing and hedonistic delight and is biting, moving, and extremely funny. Nick Zinner’s photographs evoke the world he travels with his band the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. His always-present camera documents decadent late nights as well as blissfully fresh sun-dappled landscapes. His images are rich in narrative and unwaveringly optimistic. The book is edited and designed by their longtime collaborator, book artist Stacy Wakefield. The unique structure she has devised for this book presents Zachary’s essays as separate books-within-the-book, while the stories built by the photographs course through and around them. Zachary, Nick, and Stacy have produced three previous books together: \u003ci\u003eNo Seats on the Party Car, Slept in Beds\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eI Hope You Are All Happy Now.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNICK ZINNER\u003c\/b\u003e plays guitar in the three-time Grammy-nominated band Yeah Yeah Yeahs and hardcore group Head Wound City.
