“However, in 2019 I had a case of vertigo and this has continued throughout the pandemic. A team of five is needed to help me during book signings. We couldn’t find a safe way to complete what I needed while the virus raged. During the pandemic it was impossible to sign anything, and vertigo didn’t help,” he continued.
“With the contractual deadlines, the idea of using a machine was suggested, as well as the certainty that this is done ‘all the time’ in the literary and arts world,” completed the musician.
Through social networks, the publisher Simon & Schuster also apologized and stated that he will refund all cheated customers.
For those who bought the limited edition of The Philosophy of Modern Song, we want to apologize. It turns out that the limited edition books contain the original signature of bob, but in a written reply. We are resolving this immediately, providing every buyer with an immediate refund.
