John Joseph's autobiography. This man, frontman for the Cro-Mags in the 80s, grew up in foster homes and on the streets of New York when junkies and gangs ruled. This is a fantastic story of overcoming horrible circumstances. Revelations: Dave Mustaine used to be an asshole (big shock), Annie Lennox' first husband was a Hare Krsna, and the Bad Brains were the best punk band going. No surprise there at all.
A great read. Get it.

The thing that I always notice is not so much the fact that Dave Mustaine is an a-hole (because over the years it's become a pretty clear fact), but that SO MANY people need you to know it, which tells me that he crosses the line into that sort of legendary douchebaggery that requires detailed retelling of his offenses to anyone who will listen.
I mean, Lemmy called the guy a jerk.
..Do you even understand just how much of a jerk you need to be for that to happen?
