Peter Criss' Book: Makeup to Breakup

Post by richiehaha »

I just finished Peter Criss' book, Makeup to Breakup.
I didn't even know it existed till a friend of mine lent it to me (the book is like 8 years old now).
I enjoyed it...especially things about Gene, Paul and Ace that he mentioned.
For example, according to Peter...
Paul liked to draw perfectly anatomically correct pictures of penises.
Gene didn't shower after shows and he would stink like hell, but have sex with any willing groupies
Ace was really convinced he was an alien from another planet.
Lots of other interesting stuff.

Just wondering if anyone else read it and what they thought about it.
Some things seemed a little exaggerated to say the least.
But still an excellent read.

I got Jesus in my fax machine. I saw Ho Chi Minh down @ Burger King. I dated Vinnie Vincent as a Drag Queen. I still don't understand a f**kin' thing.

You have to wonder what else is left, if they did hold back, considering future opportunities.

I have read all thte books but forgotten a lot about them, so I could easily read them again. Each is a bit self serving as you would expect but pretty interesting reading.

Peter"s was a very good book, I thought. Liked the way he told things, even if he messed up and became bit bitter...

Oh he was a bit bitter alright....lol.....but gee, he had a pretty good life compared to what could have been if he'd never placed that ad and met Gene and Paul.
