Announcing Our Next Read...

[DeppInTheHeartOfTexas]

"The Code is the law." Don't upset Captain Teague! Keep to the code, Noodlemantras, and join us for our next book...

"Life" by Keith Richards with James Fox.

We are looking forward to a rockin' read!

[bluebird]

Great choice! I am listening to it now! Narrated by -- guess who!?!

[fireflydances]

Whoa! I didn't think you would. Listened to it last winter, and now, well I might even purchase a used copy of the book itself. Cool guys!!

[Jackslady]

Fantastic! I've read the book and I'm a Keith fan, so I will look forward to joining in!

[Buster]

I "heavily browsed" the book for about an hour at one of those bookstores with good chairs. I'm currently on the road, but will join in as often as I can.

[Gilbert's Girl]

Really? quite surprised as its not exactly a Johnny connection he's only mentioned once and almost in passing so curious as to why its the next choice.
Also being a big Keith fan not sure I want non fans to tear it apart I've seen enough Stones fans do that.
will probably join in with trepidation though

Very intrigued as to what tidbits you might use and questions you will ask.

I'm sure you won't need but if you want some assistance or pointers for some of the tidbits info I can probably point you in the right direction.

[DeppInTheHeartOfTexas]

We have been considering this book since it was published given the friendship between Johnny and Keith. Johnny narrates the audiobook, is producing a documentary on Keith and of course mentions Keith as one of his inspirations for his characterization of Captain Jack, not to mention Keith's short appearances as Teague in the films. We try to keep the discussions respectful of our subject matter and of each others opinions, the Noodlemantras have always been good about that.

GG, if you have any concerns or ideas send me a pm. Thanks!

Thanks Guys, I've ordered the audio CD and kindle edition so hope to finish it by October 10th, even with my busy schedule! Looking very forward to it

[DeppInTheHeartOfTexas]

Glad you will be joining us, hurricane! It isn't necessary to be finished with the book by October 10. We still start our tidbits then and the discussion will follow sometime in November. We will let you know the exact date before we start the discussion.

[stroch]

Well, I am delighted that this is next. I didn't participate in the last two discussions because I couldn't read Crispin's book (dependent on public library copies; none available) and really disliked OST (did not want to post negative thoughts.)

I have my copy of Life on the table next to me and am ready to go.

[SnoopyDances]

Very interesting! I've been debating about reading this book. I'll try to work it into the schedule. If I can't, I'll just follow the discussion quietly.

Yes indeed, they certainly have, DITHOT. And we appreciate it.

Glad to see all of the interest in the book. I’ve been looking forward to this one since my 21 year old son gave it to me last Christmas. And guess what…..he read my copy before I could get to it. He highly recommends it BTW.

[gemini]

Well I don't see how you can look at my avatar and not know that I would like to read Keiths book.

[denise]

I read this, it's good. I'll try to remember to be here.

Hi, ONBC and Liz and DITHOT--

I'm new to the ONBC even though I've lurked now and then, especially in the archives to read the thread about the WEGG book..
I bought both the book and audio CD's of 'Life' months ago and have yet to take the cellophane off the CD's or do more than skim through parts of the book and look at the pics, but I would love to finally be part of an ONBC discussion, and hopefully I'll have read the book by the time it starts.
