Real Men Don't Rehearse is an amusing inside look at the usually hidden and secret world of professional orchestras. It is illustrated with dozens of humorous tales of musician antics and concert meltdowns. Outsiders are rarely allowed such access, but at last you can have your own personal tour of the mystical and magical realm of a professional orchestras and the people who play in them.

It was written by Justin Locke, who spent 18 seasons as a professional freelance double bassist in Boston. He played with the Boston Symphony, the Boston Pops, as well as for ballets, operas, and Broadway shows. He is also well known in the symphonic world as the author of Peter VS the Wolf and The Phantom of the Orchestra, which are internationally acclaimed programs for orchestra family concerts.
