    1.0 out of 5 stars Lies and bragging
    Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2009
    I just recently had the misfortune to read this trash. Besides many typical chronological inaccuracies, among this lying braggart's self glorification, there are so many lies about me that I cannot do the subject justice. It's not just sensationalism, which I am used to reading regarding me and my lifestyle choice, but this is abhorrent.
    So sad, so sorry.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Life On The Road Rules
    Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2001
    Dinky Dawson used to run sound at The Channel nightclub. I think I met him when Roy Orbison did his second to last show. When his name was on this book I flipped through it at a store and had to buy it. There are books with rock & roll secrets, and this one tells them without being a gossip book. It is a real book about real things that fans want to know - more like The Wall Street Journal going behind the scenes than the National Enquirer. Carter Alan does a good job telling the stories like he's reading this on the air at WZLX, the classic rocker in Boston where he's a dj. It is folksy, but there is great content here - stuff that you won't find anywhere else. The book doesn't say if Dawson is out there still recording people and doing sound. It would be cool to see the guy in action after reading this book.
