Blizna
Mlodziencze lata Anthony'ego Kiedisa, lidera jednego z najpopularniejszych zespolów rockowych na swiecie, sa doskonalym materialem na ksiazke. Blizna to wspomnienie tamtych szalonych lat wypelnionych muzyka, seksem, narkotykami i imprezami. To opowiesc o pogoni za silnymi wrazeniami, o zyciu na krawedzi i o poszukiwaniu upustu dla posiadanych zasobów energii.
Bez zbednego koloryzowania, bez taniego ubarwiania rzeczywistosci, za to z odpowiednia doza szczerosci powstala biografia czlowieka, którego muzyka i ogromna pasja zaprowadzily na szczyty slawy.
Oto moja relacja z tamtych czasów, a takze historia o tym, jak chlopak, który urodzil sie w Grand Rapids w stanie Michigan, przeniósl sie do Hollywood i na koncu teczy znalazl wiecej, niz mógl udzwignac. Oto moja historia, wszystkie blizny i cala reszta. Anthony Kiedis
,,Czytajac te przejmujaca historie, uswiadamiamy sobie, jak niewiele wiemy o artystach, których ogladamy na wystylizowanych teledyskach i podczas koncertów. Blizna to gratka dla wszystkich fanów RHCP (...) - pokazuje bez zadnego upiekszania zwariowany hollywoodzki swiatek undergroundowych klubów, narkotykowych dilerów oraz mniejszych, a wraz z uplywem czasu i rosnaca popularnoscia RCCP, coraz wiekszych gwiazd, które przewinely sie przez zycie Kiedisa". Gazeta Studencka
,,Kopalnia pikantnych ciekawostek o Cher, Madonnie czy Sylwestrze Stallone. Fani Papryczek odnajda tu sporo zakulisowych wiesci o powstaniu kapeli i slynnych balangach do upadlego". Marie Claire
,,Najbardziej szokujaca biografia roku". Observer

About the author
Anthony Kiedis
22 books430 followersAnthony Kiedis is an American musician best known as the lead vocalist of the rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers. Kiedis and his fellow band members were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2012.
Kiedis spent his youth in Grand Rapids, Michigan, with his mother, and then moved shortly before his twelfth birthday to live with his father in Hollywood. While attending Fairfax High School, Kiedis befriended students Flea and Hillel Slovak, who were members of the band Anthym. After high school, Kiedis took classes at UCLA, but dropped out in his sophomore year.
When Kiedis received an offer to be the opening act for a local band, he enlisted Flea, Slovak, and drummer Jack Irons. After a show under the name Tony Flow and the Miraculously Majestic Masters of Mayhem, the band progressed and the lineup eventually became the Red Hot Chili Peppers. He has recorded thirteen studio albums with the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Kiedis's lyrical style has evolved throughout his career; early recordings discussed topics such as sex and life in Los Angeles, while more recent songs focus on more reflective themes including love, addiction, and loss. He struggled with addiction until 2000, and maintains that he has been clean since then.
