Rocker gets booked

Fans of guns n' roses may never hear a new album from the defunct band, but at least they'll be able to read about their favorite legendary rockers.

Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash (right) just sold his autobiography to HarperCollins. The British born, California-raised ax man will work with writer Anthony Bozza, who helped drummer and carouser Tommy Lee pen his memoir, Tommyland.

The manuscript is due to be delivered in the fall.

Slash, born Saul Hudson, left Guns N' Roses in 1996 following a split with group leader Axl Rose. He went on to form the band Velvet Revolver.

A HarperCollins spokeswoman confirmed Slash's deal.

Also in the works is W.A.R.: The Unauthorized Biography of W. Axl Rose, by British rock writer Mick Wall. The book is due out in Britain in the fall and is currently making the rounds of New York publishers.

``[Guns N' Roses] is a great story, and it's not finished yet,'' says Mr. Wall's U.S. agent, Barbara Zitwer, referring to the unfinished album that Mr. Rose has been working on for years.

Heh. Well, to be fair, I would be looking at the opinions of my fellow GN'R fans... since I would trust their opinions on a Slash book. I figure it won't suck though. We'll see.

Will be very interesting to read what he has to say. Particularly on the the changes in GNR's dymanics when Steven and Izzy left, and during the "dead years" of the old lineup (94-96), where there have been a mere few comments from the band.

In the current situation, the VR chapter will also be concluded in a high moment, with Contraband out and a follow-up currently underway.

A happy ending for what I expect to be quite a story.

I'd really like to see GN'R write a book in the style that Motley Crue did for The Dirt, that would kick so much ass.

Didn't think he would be the first one to publish biography. Will have to read it though, and I'm looking forward to it  Smiley

You're right, it won't be.  I tried to start a thread a while back about this book and it got deleted.

You should have seen the cover they wanted to do. It wasn't a glove, believe me.
