Rockstar Biographies & Music Memoirs with Greg David
03/14/25 • 28 min
Is it better when rockstars tell their own stories? Celebrity memoirs are supposed to capture the highs and lows of fame, creativity, and personal struggles, but is that enough for the reader? Greg David gives us his reviews of:
- Brothers by Alex Van Halen
- The Storyteller by Dave Grohl
- Face the Music by Paul Stanley
- Kiss and Make-Up by Gene Simmons
- The Heroin Diaries by Nikki Sixx
We share personal reflections on picking up books about legends, and whether they’re worth the hype.
AMI Audiobook Review is broadcast on AMI-audio in Canada and publishes three new podcast episodes a week on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.

Highlights from the 2025 Audies + Sara Hillis’s Case for Stephen King
The Audies’ 30th anniversary was a mix of celebration and chaos. Sara Hillis recaps the major winners, highlights moments from the nostalgia-filled ceremony, and questions why accessibility considerations were missing from the world’s biggest audiobook award event.
Plus, Stephen King writes about nightmares, but in Insomnia, he also writes about love, grief, and sacrifice. In her Solo Review, Sara explores why King’s stories are as much about the light as they are about the dark.
