Jack Kerouac – On the Road
Biography
Most of his life was spent in the vast landscapes of America or in the apartment of his mother, with whom he lived most of his life. Faced with a changing country, Kerouac sought to find his place, eventually bringing him to reject the values of the fifties. His writing often reflects a desire to break free from society’s mold and to find meaning in life. This search may have led him to experiment with drugs (he used psilocybin, marijuana, morphine, and benzedrine, among others), to study spiritual teachings such as Buddhism, and to embark on trips around the world. His books are sometimes credited as the catalyst for the 1960s counterculture. Kerouac’s best known works are On the Road and The Dharma Bums.

I just hope fans of the band have come here and discovered the man and loved it. Pay attention kids, this guy and his friends changed the world.

It is a odd choice of a band name though i do agree... There is also a hardcore band named Bukowski, would be ironic in a way if they played together!

Oddly enough I have seen Kerouac live since I live in the same town as them... they ain't as bad as i think you guys make them out to be. Though obviously not a great ad Jask Kerouac.

there is a hardcore band called Kerouac with a album called " cold and distant, not loved".... and its scrobbling this gent .. lastfm please fix this [10] Seriously last.fm you should really split page. Jack Kerouac is a talented poet or whatever you call it, but Kerouac is a different instance. Can you do your fucking job, and search on the internet or are you paid for nothing? Kerouac (the band) is hardcore and if you don't think it's true check out : http://www.myspace.com/kerouacuk

"Please note that any other valid artist with the same name has the equal right to appear on such a shared profile, including their music, their pictures, their artist description and any other information on them. It is for instance NOT ALLOWED to remove their description from the wiki, and it is also not possible to have an official primary image for one artist, while there are other pictures for the other artist(s) which all users can vote for and thus decide which one of the artists should get the "main" image" some cunt has obviously deleted out wiki for this page and shit. fuck jack kerouac, we are kerouac. get this cunt off of last.fm, and get 'kerouac' the band on here. or at least give us our seperate page as we are not called jack kerouac. we want our share. what's worse is last.fm don't even offer any help with this problem

your statement is a false one though. where has anyone else said something about "why is a poet/writer on a music site" besides one maybe two people?, everyone else isn't saying that, one person did. Trust me I have talked to someone from tangled talk records about this and they are trying to resolve the situation. Why does it matter so much to you about what other people do on the internet? Whining about whining in the shoutbox doesnt ever fix anything
