Product Description:


The most influential, enduring, and iconic metal band of the 1980's reveals everything a tell-all of epic proportions.



This unbelievable autobiography explores the rebellious lives of four of the most influential icons in American rock history.



Motley Crue was the voice of a barely pubescent Generation X, the anointed high priests of backward-masking pentagram rock, pioneers of Hollywood glam, and the creators of MTV's first 'power ballad.' Their sex lives claimed celebrities from Heather Locklear to Pamela Anderson to Donna D'Errico. Their scuffles involved everyone from Axl Rose to 2LiveCrew. Their hobbies have included collecting automatic weapons, cultivating long arrest records, pushing the envelope of conceivable drug abuse, and dreaming up backstage antics that would make Ozzy Osbourne blanch with modesty.



Provocatively written and brilliantly designed, this book includes over 100 photos, many never before published, for the most exciting and insightful look ever into the Crue.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Crazy stuff
I didn't know much about the crue before i read this book. But it's a riviting book with entertaining tales of crazy far-out rock n' roll lifestyles. A good read.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Amazing
I just finished reading the The Dirt and it was, honest to God, one of the most compelling books I have ever read. I am a huge Motley Crue fan but the great thing about this book is that you don't have to be a fan, heck you don't even have to like music to enjoy this book. This book is about music, but just barely. There is a little bit about Nikki Sixx and how he came up with lyrics and such but other than that there's not much about the music itself. This book is very different from Aerosmith's "Walk This Way" and Slash's autobiography. Those books have a good deal of information on the actual music. "The Dirt" stays away from it. Instead, it tells the amusing, shocking, and sometimes utterly revolting stories of the band members while they were in their teen years, when they were just a young upstart band in West Hollywood, and when they became international stars and went on tour. A worthwhile read.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Motley Crue Rock's!!!!!!!!!!!
The Dirt: Confessions of the World's Most Notorious Rock Band Motley Crue, the name say's it all, but the "Rock God's" also showed how human they are through their MANY loves, loses, & to still, be on top & together after all these Year's!!!!!!!!! KEEP ROCKIN' MOTLEY CRUE!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - If you only read 430 pages this year, read the pages of The Dirt.
This book is incredible!! I read it cover to cover. What I love about this book most is that it is written the way these guys would speak. For example, after every sentence Tommy writes, it finished with bro, or dude.
The stories written give you such a great insight as to how these men became some of the most notorious rockstars of all time. From their earliest memories growing up, til a few years ago. At times, it can be confusing as to what really happened as the stories are told from a few different points of view, but that further allows you to see who these guys are.
The advenutures and the (many, many, many) nights of debauchery, the numerous near death experiences and overdoses, the personal tragedies of each man. This book has it all. And in perfect, descriptive detail.
I wouldn't, however, recommend this book to people with a weak stomach, but to anyone else who has any interest in rock ... Read More
