Book Review of Does the Noise in My Head Bother You?

Does the Noise in My Head Bother You?
Gimli avatar reviewed on + 14 more book reviews


Just as the other reviews have stated, this book reads just like the ADHD Mr. Steven Tyler speaks, very disjointed. However, I liked to hear the noise in his head - in my own head by reading this book. It was a little peek into his famous rock star - Screamin' Demon -life. I found it interesting at times and at others a mess that I was just trying really hard to follow. He does talk a lot about the sex drugs and rock and roll - that is his life. I did not find it very explicit though like some of the readers who claim not to be "prudes". The sexual detail was frequent but minor - still not a kid's book - but I don't think it was ever intended to be. The things that I disliked the most was the finger pointing, the lashing back at band members and ex-lovers and the lack of OWNING up to his own issues. He talks the talk of owning his problems but does not walk the walk. Yes, he seems sober now but there is a lot of blame being tossed around where it should not be tossed. Overall, it's a fun look into his life if you are a big fan, but not worth the time it takes to finish the reading.
