"We've updated the original '03 release through 2009, with coverage of Motley Crue's massively successful comeback trek in 2004/5, the launch of Cruefest I & 2, Nikki's clothing business with Royal Underground, and solo success with side-project Sixx:AM & the Heroin Diaries to create by far the most comprehensive independent study of the wildly colorful life and times of Motley Crue founder/chief songwriter Nikki Sixx. We're very excited to share this unique opportunity with a fan who'll enjoy the book's success as much as we will," said author Jake Brown.
The auction will begin at 3PM EST on Saturday, November 15 and end at 3PM EST on Saturday, November 22. Fans can register now at http://www.songvest.com to learn more about plans for the book's re-printing and retail release.
