Nikki Sixx- The Heroin Diaries

[*ParadiseCityGirl*]

...I'm about halfway through it and whoa..pretty intense. Has anyone else got this yet??

[Kill_YourIdols]

im definitively getting it seems pretty interesting

[Zion]

I already read The Dirt. I don't really need details into that sick whiny fucks past.

After reading that book the only normal person in that I still respect is Mick Mars.

[Destiny]

wouldn't mind reading it. I like the song that Nikki and his band put out

[.Seal]

Yeah had it for a while now and I really like it since I did have my prejudices about it.. Turns out it's a good album.

Oh and I was talking about the album! Don't have intentions of getting the book though..

My brother bought the book yesterday so I'll be reading it soon.

The album is pretty good too, better than I expected.

i read the dirt and will read this to but the album is a kick ass album.nikki rocks and his song writing is great.i just love it.

[Leigh-Rok!]

I've ordered it because you can't yet get it in the UK. Apparently there's an accompanying soundtrack too, I heard the first song on Scuzz - pretty sweet. The Dirt is a good read too.

Are we talking about the same nikki? He pretty much held the band together, on top of somehow holding his own life together (kindof). Or at least getting through it. Even while reading the dirt I always thought his parts were the most interesting and sincere. Vince is the sick whiny fuck to be honest.

[KingsOfTheCarnivalCreation]

I've read bits and pieces of it. Read the interview he had in Metal Hammer so i bought it. I dont do the whole reading thing. But it's alright.

[icet224]

Went out and got my copy earlier(also finally bought a legal copy of the Soundtrack I promised myself not to buy one with out the other)

so far, I'm really enjoying it, since it's mostly diary entries from that period, it kind of has a more connecting feeling then his reminiscing in The Dirt

[Estranged Reality]

I think it is the most unappealing thing I could fathom right now.

Oh boy! Let's read a fake diary from a fake rock star from a fake glam metal band (err, sorry, grunge band; I mean, hard rock band; I mean, nu metal band; I mean, retro glam band). He does coke and heroin and stuff he's so cool. Oh man I wish I could be a rock star and live life with sex drugs and booze and have lots of tattoos and spike my hair all wild and shit because that's A ROCK STAR THING TO DO!!!110ONE

Motley Crue is the most image-driven band ever. They think they are true rock n' roll, and that's what they market themselves as. They're a complete product - more so than any other rock band I can think of; every little aspect of their band is completely cliched and stereotypical of a hard rock/sleaze band. They may have helped cater that into the mainstream, but look at how they jump on every new image that comes out. Nikki started out as a KISS rip-off and now he looks like he's trying to copy these retro-sleaze rockers like Hinder and Nickelback. Does he spend enough time on his hair or brag enough about how many drugs he's taken? What a rock star. He looks like a retired porn star. It's sickening.

Oh, and by the way? "A year in the life of a shattered rock star"? Sorry, Nikki; you aren't a rock star. You may have been one for a fleeting second in 1988, but you aren't relevant anymore, and no one knows who you are except for metal heads and Crue fans. Crue may still be able to attract crowds as sort of a nostalgia act (and a pretty sad one at that), but these people don't know who you are; they rely on name brand. A "rock star" has to be a star - the rock part is an adjective, not just part of one word - and you aren't a star. You aren't even really rock. A more appropriate title:

OUT OF MONEY, BUY MY BOOK AND/OR SOUNDTRACK; A FAKE YEAR IN THE LIFE OF A SAD, EXPIRED, DESPERATE WANNABE ROCKER WHO IS PAST HIS PRIME AND WILL SUCK CORPORATE COCK FOR THE ALMIGHTY DOLLAR. BY NIKKI SIX.

Yeah, I liked Nikki's parts in the Dirt altough Mick's were far more interesting, and more sincere in my opinion. Vince is just annoying and Tommy's still acting like a 16-year-old.

You seem to know an awful lot about this Sixx fellow for someone who claims not to care.

Actually he and Nikki were something of an item during the Girls, Girls, Girls era. Sounds like sour grapes to me.
