The audio book version is on the pirate bay Indy.  Download an app like transmission to download it.  I like utorrent for a phone torrent downloader.

I'm on an audio book kick when I drive lately.

Oh I didn't know there was a "real" Candy, like he based it on anything remotely true.
I figured it was 100% fiction. That's interesting and neat.

I remember "You can't win" being referenced by Burroughs.
It may have been in the fore word in Junky, I don't remember exactly.
Might have to check that out.

Has anyone read "Dreamseller" by Brendan Novak? I kinda want to read that one.

I tried reading Anthony Kiedis autobiography but couldn't get into it.
I tried a couple times too but just gave up. I feel like my spare time
Is too limited to force myself to read a whole book if I'm not liking it, ya know?

^^^I read "Dreamseller" and I dug it. Novak seems like a decent guy and it always used to bug me when Ryan Dunn used to give him shit for being a junky when Dunn was pretty much just a raging asshole drunk. And look what happened to him. I'm probably gonna get shit for bashing him but since a lot of those dudes are from my area I had to hear about them all the time back in the day. Honestly most of those guys were douches but Novak and a couple others were/are cool.
Sorry I kinda went off on a tangent there, it's just that kind of morning.

Bummer you couldn't get into "Scar Tissue", I liked that one too. Kiedis relasped like it was his job. I enjoyed reading about John Frusciante in his book a lot though. That dude fascinates me.

I forget the name of it and I'm too lazy to get up and look cuz I have it but Slash's autobiography was really good. That's another one I reread a lot too.

^^^lol Oh man, I still have all my CKY videos and cds cuz I dig the band still. I guess I can say general areas... I live in Philly now but am originally from Delco (Delaware County) just outside the city limits. Those guys for the most part are from neighboring Chester County. It's pretty boring out there so I guess that's why they got into to so much shit. But all these areas pretty much intersect at some point and you would see certain people at the mall (ew) or around town. Philly is pretty much a city of neighborhoods and the immediate suburbs are part of that. Even though it's a major city it's easy to bump into people if that makes sense.
