    <body><![CDATA[I don't know what it is about Motley Crue, but they're absolutely fascinating to read about. Bassist/founder/main songwriter Nikki Sixx dug up these old diaries that cover almost every day of his life in 1987. When the band wasn't touring, Sixx was near death in his bedroom closet taking heroin, coc...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/9520444">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I have to start out saying I was never a Motley Crue fan when they were huge. To the best of my memory, they only had two songs I can truly say I liked: 'Shout at the Devil' and 'Dr. Feelgood.'<br/><br/>Having established that fact, I was blown away when I heard 'Life is Beautiful' on my favorite ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/20445377">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book is a compilation of Nikki Sixx's diary entries from 1986/1987 along with comments by those who knew him then.  Let me say, I give Nikki Sixx a lot of credit for doing this as well as those who commented in the book.  This took a very strong person to look back and read these entries; ackno...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/12167712">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[&quot;How is Nikki Sixx still alive?&quot; is the question I was asking myself after finishing this book.  Coming from the industry side of things, it's a real treat to get inside the mind of a psychotic artist (because they're all nuts in my opinion.)
