"Crazy From The Heat" Biography...

**BrokenCombs** · 02.02.01, 05:29 AM

I'm reading his biography (can't believe I waited this long to get it) Damn, I always knew Dave was a man with great master of the English language, but this book truly lets me see further into his mind.

Anyone out there have an autographed copy of "Crazy From The Heat" ?

GREAT DLR QUOTE:

"I spent more than one night falling asleep in a puddle of beer on an empty mattress in the middle of total wreckage, with the front door to the room leaning against the wall about eighteen inches to the side of the door frame. I woke up like that somewhere in Worchester, Massachusetts. Manager had flown in and I woke up as he was just trying to jockey the door a little more to the side so he could squeeze though and shake my hand, asked me how the tour was going. I told him I felt that we were winning."

LOL !!!

Nope, no autographed copy here. In fact, I only have the paperback version, which sucks because the hardcover has more pictures. That's what I get for being cheap.

Great book, full of great quotes like the one you posted. I notice Dave mentions at the start that the manuscript was 1200 pages long. How cool would it be to read everything that didn't make the final cut?
