Funny but raunchy (what did you expect?) on-the-road diary of Eric Idle's 2005 cross-country "Greedy Bastard Tour".

Less expected, and actually quite affecting, are stories about his childhood, his eventual reconciliation with his mother, and his friendships with performers like Robin Williams and George Harrison.

Worth the read.
