Face the Music: A Life Exposed by Paul Stanley

3.0

Caution: lotsa F and even C words.

Stuff I liked, better yet, what got my attention and interest:

1. The bits about the actual music-making and how some of the records were made. What they did in the studio, what the producer came up with, why that certain album was an absolute disgrace and bombed hard;
2. Sex, drugs, alcohol, antics, debauchery, etc.;
3. Ace was a pain in the ass because he was lazy and constantly off his face, he was funny at first, and blahblahblah, oh well, fuck you, you fucking fuck!;
4. Peter was a pain in the ass because he was constantly intoxicated, bitter, bitching and moaning, also blahblahblah, oh well, you can't play, you suck at drums, we had to call Anton Fig to record Dynasty and Unmasked, well, fuck you, you fucking fuck!;
5. Vinnie Vincent was a pain in the ass and a full on wacko, he also played a 20 minute guitar solo which was fucking boring as shite;
6. Mark St. John played 20000 notes a minute because that was the fashion back in the eighties, he got a serious tendonitis and couldn't play for shite so we let him go, fuck him.

What I didn't give a flying squirrel's chuff about:

1. I was a poor jewish kid, everybody would take the piss out of me because I was born without an ear;
2. I got married but she was in love with some frog-eating twat in France, the bastard would ring her all the time and when I told her to stop talking to him she basically told me to get fucked and mind my own business. I got a divorce in the end and she got a fuckload of money. My money.;
3. Met another girl, the right one, we got married and have three kids; we're family. Family rocks!;
4. I was depressed so someone suggested I should paint. I painted. My paintings sell, I'm a talented artist, hey!;
5. I was in Phantom of the Opera. I loved it. People loved me. Gene couldn't care less;
6. Gene is a fucking cunt. I hate his guts but I've known him for over 40 years so we're friends, he didn't come to my wedding because I didn't invite the bastard as he'd tell me weddings are for twats, and that annoyed me no end. He got married too eventually, in 2011, ha!;
7. Charity.

Three stars.
