Tales from the Bedroom Wall

The Life and Times of a Serial Thrill Seeker

De: Steve Blacknell, Bill Wyman - foreword

Narrado por: Steve Blacknell

He adorned his bedroom wall with pictures of his musical heroes, blissfully unaware that he would meet so many of them in future days. His bizarre adventures both in the UK and Hollywood, with ridiculous forays into drugs and food addictions along with an inability to take other people's advice, saw him go from millionaire to near poverty. Add tall tales of Tinseltown failure, pure unabashed British eccentricity, and you have all the ingredients that will engage and delight, proving that, 'anyone can be an idiot if they try hard enough'!

With a foreword by Bill Wyman, Steve Blacknell takes listeners through the, at times, gruesome details of his life as an MTV video jock to television presenting while coping with Bulimia, Anorexia, drug addiction through a life of excess. His successes and failures are documented in painful detail with, at times, hilarious outcomes. Steve Blacknell watched his first love achieve worldwide fame, interviewed the cream of the music industry and was present at both the UK and US Live Aid days. His grandest ambitions were almost achieved, but his failures were no less grand. This is a no holds barred memoir.

Warning: This book contains memories of anorexia, bulimia and purging, period-typical language and attitudes, scenes involving alcohol and drug use, bodily functions and death and dying.
