Date: June 2nd, 2022 9:36 AM Author: sapphire hall I read all these rock books. Some are 180 (the morrison one: no one here gets out alive, the geldof autobio, the zep one, keith richards autobio), many are really really bad (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5122113&forum_id=2#44613291) |
Date: June 2nd, 2022 9:46 AM Author: provocative area rigpig I'd read it.
The keith Richard's one is good? |

Date: June 2nd, 2022 9:51 AM Author: Lemon Fat Ankles Home very good, i read it when it came out.
if you like joy division/new order at all, peter hook's books about JD and NO are a MUST read. even if you don't like their music they're entertaining reads. the NO book is massive, like 700 pages and he dishes all kinds of shit on his former bandmates. i've read that one three times. |

Date: June 2nd, 2022 9:50 AM Author: Lemon Fat Ankles Home i love bios/autobios of musicians and actors. i read them even if i don't care for (or even dislike) the person. they're just interesting stories.
i remember the sammy haggar one being pretty good and lol at that faggot, i hate his music and his overall bro dude demeanor. |

Date: June 2nd, 2022 9:55 AM Author: vigorous codepig The Sammy Hagar one is great and I don’t even like Sammy Hagar.
Johnny Marr’s autobiography is great too. Especially if you read it back to back with Morrissey’s. Marr is so good-natured and doesn’t say a bad thing about anybody, and Morrissey is…Morrissey. Weird how those guys don’t seem that old but they grew up in Manchester coldwater flats with outhouses in the backyard.
Paul Stanley’s autobio is probably my favorite. He’s such a pissy little bitch, talks shit about everyone and everything. Tremendously entertaining. |

Date: June 3rd, 2022 12:20 PM Author: Lemon Fat Ankles Home marr's was good, and you are right. morrissey comes off like a bitchy faggot in his, as he does irl.
i need to read that paul stanley one. what is it called? |

Date: June 3rd, 2022 3:37 PM Author: vigorous codepig It’s called Face the Music. You will either love it or hate it. He spares no one, talks shit about everyone. Not even minor people in Kiss universe are safe—he tells a completely unnecessary story about Vinnie Vincent that sticks with me to this day, even though Vinnie is a major weirdo who really doesn’t need more negativity. You can definitely tell he wrote it himself, cause no ghostwriter could be that petty. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5122113&forum_id=2#44620998) |

Date: June 2nd, 2022 10:25 AM Author: provocative area rigpig I have this one coming in the mail today. Probably 50/50 autobiography and coffee table book, but I flipped through it at a store last weekend and it was fascinating (especially for a guitar and gear nerd like me). by Jimmy Page himself

Date: June 2nd, 2022 11:25 AM Author: sapphire hall i generally avoid hardcovers and get them from the library if possible. you just tear through them on the shitter. last one I read was little steven van zandt's auto. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5122113&forum_id=2#44613806) |
