The UK's Observer / Guardian Unlimited has issued an exclusive and extensive excerpt from VELVET REVOLVER / ex-GUNS N' ROSES guitarist Slash's forthcoming autobiography. The following is a brief clip:
"It was 1989. Once the final leg of the Appetite For Destruction tour was over, I was back in LA pretty shiftless and uncomfortable; for the first time in two years I had no predetermined place to be, no job to do when I woke up. I had been away so long that nothing was satisfying and the everyday business of life seemed alien to me. I wasn't sure how I was supposed to go to the store for groceries after I'd played arenas in Japan the week before. I'd been on tour long enough to forget that I once bought my own liquor and cigarettes, and what I really couldn't shake was the thrill of playing every night..."Go to this location for the complete excerpt.
Details and pre-order information for the autobiography, due to be released on October 30th, are available here.
