Reviews
This book was a fun read! Paul Miles has dedicated decades of his life chronicling Motley Crue. Reading about his time and adventures with Motley and his rock hero- Nikki Sixx was refreshing. I feel like I know the band that much better now. Motley Crue are also my favorite band, though I have never met any of them. I am a life-long drummer and Tommy Lee has been my biggest drumming influence. Reading Paul's experiences left me rather jealous - to have that kind of access to one of the most influential rock bands ever for the entire Australian tour would have been completely amazing! With Paul writing from his Australian perspective, it was interesting for me, as an American, to take in Australian lingo etc. The book brings you up close and personal with the Crue and experience their personalities in a rare and candid way. Thank you Paul for sharing this experience with us!Daniel Jesse - USA
