Face the Music: A Life Exposed by Paul Stanley
4.0
Being a life long Kiss fan since the 70's I thought I'd give this one a try. Unlike Gene Simmons auto-biography (which was all about him all the time) Stanley spent a lot of time talking about the band, the albums, the tours, the strife etc. ~ That was good but it also means he spent less time talking about himself, his private life, his art and believe it or not he spent very little time talking about Gene Simmons.
So there was a bunch of stuff that I wished he would have spent more time on but it's his autobiography so it's his call.
What there was was written very well, interesting, moved along at a nice clip, included a bunch of backstage, back scene stories, dealt with his deafness and missing ear, loneliness, divorce, issues with Peter and Ace.
Not great but definitely a good read and glad I spent my time with it.
