didn't read that yet - as it took you about 6 months to finish

however this might be lots of the same


It's hard hitting and across two legs. No, it's not Craig Bellamy's golf club, it's the champions league semi-finals

Don't read Scar tissue, it is a struggle through to the end, after numerous attempts at rehab/selling his guitar for drugs/rehab/new girlfriend etc. Seriously, a very loooong read. ( disappointingly)
Am on for Slash though,

These are just a few fine examples that modern medicine had evolved so much since we were so use to musicians dying before their time....

Kiedis got stoned first time when 11 - and it went steep downhill from there. He broke his back jumping out of a flat window on the 3rd floor and missing the pool, just. How he survived everything is truly fascinating (to me).
I thought it was a well written book, bringing up plenty of smiles and the occasional tear (when he describes the death of Hillel, e.g.)

He's as rock 'n roll as anyone

slash's book is very very similar... but he actually killed himself three times but was saved by medics

I really don't get how killing yourself can be classified as rock n roll ???

Slash is a Potter and so is Lemmy.

This was a good read too...

Erm, you keep bringing this up. Who wears purple?
Frizzy Bon Jovi perm, faded jeans, rock t shirts, yes. Purple, no.
