For the last minute gift: Autobirockraphy
That’s right folks, why give your friends and family clamoring for something “true” something intriguing and delightful like A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius or Me Talk Pretty One Day when you can give them the intimate insights of Slash where in his new autobiography Slash, he writes “That’s a wonderful side effect of leather pants: when you pee yourself in them, they’re more forgiving than jeans,” ? 
A slew of other rockers have their autobiographies out this holiday season for the, at least sort of, literate rockers out there including Eric Clapton (The Autobiography), Nicki Sixx (The Heroin Diaries), and Ronnie Wood of Rolling Stones fame(Ronnie: The Autobiography). And yes, The Heroin Diaries would be the darker of the bunch. Any fan will be delighted to read about other pee soaked or handgun standoff with Keith Richards (Ronnie) stories. Raw is what’s selling now, so these rockers get a little grimier than they would’ve gotten in an autobiography a decade ago, when most of them were already fading stars anyway…
