BRINGING METAQL TO THE CHILDREN blends outrageous touring stories with humorous (yet insightful) tips on how to rock your own tour and survive life on the road.
The book opens with Wylde's True Rocker Test (TRT) to help determine your rock star potential. It also features a photographic "how-to" including Wylde's weightlifting routine, his favourite dietary secrets, rocking recipes and several techniques for opening a beer bottle in the absence of a bottle opener (after all, this is a survival guide). Wylde provides a photographic documentary of his music equipment set-ups, guitar techniques and exclusive tips for enhancing tour recreation, including the only method for preparing a television for exit through a hotel window, the best methods for destroying a guitar on stage and his personally developed strategy plans and diagrams for setting up a shooting range on the tour bus.
Wylde continues the journey with his epic stories about life on the road, using his Black Label Society (BLS) coaching techniques to instruct the reader on proper touring hygiene, pre-concert preparations, and post-show etiquette. Family, friends, tour managers and musicians share their favourite Zakk Wylde tour stories, with contributions from Guns'N'Roses lead guitarist Slash, Slayer's Kerry King, Alice in Chains founder Jerry Cantrell, musician and movie director Rob Zombie, Metallica frontman James Hetfield and bassist Robert Trujillo, Soundgarden and Audioslave frontman Chris Cornell, former WWE Professional Wrestler Chris Jericho, Oscar nominated actor Mark Wahlberg, the Godfather of heavy metal Ozzy Osbourne, and many more.
This is the ultimate guide to rock on the road.
