Book Description
Time Magazine recently quipped in their gossip section that the Backstreet Boys might be transforming into the millennium’s new Motley Crue not that “Nikki Sixx has mellowed out…” Following a two-decade education in rebellion as Hard Rock’s mad scientist, highlighted by a now-infamous (& temporarily lethao) heroine overdose, relationships with some of Hollywood’s most lucious leading ladies, including Vanity, Playboy Playmate Brandi Brandt, and current wife, Baywatch star Donna D’Errico, and a 20-year multi-platinum run (selling 40 million records worldwide) as the creative center of Hard Rock’s most decadent and notorious band, Motley Crue, Nikki Sixx’s legacy among rock and metal fans worldwide is legendary. “An Education in Rebellion: The Biography of Nikki Sixx”, featuring exclusive interviews with those closest to Nikki, including Lita Ford, Bob Timmons, Neil Zlozower, Tom Werman, Quiet Riot frontman Kevin Dubrow, Dangerous Toys bassist Michael Hannon, and others, promises to paint for its readers both an intimate and wildly colorful portrait of the life of hard rock’s most important icon!
