Val's Losing It

[LoungeMachine]

Read it.

Liked it.

Learned a thing or two about spED that confirmed my opinions of him.

Glossed over 90% of the weight/Jenny bullshit, just to scan all of the spED/Dave/CVH/Wolf stuff.

Also the McKenzie Phillips chapter was interesting.

Taken for what it was, it wasn't a bad read.



discuss.

And no, reading it doesnt make you grow a vagina or suddenly want to watch Oprah.

On first read, I thought this thread was titled "Vai's Losing It", and tuned in hoping that somebody finally had some dirt on the squeaky-clean guitarist Steve Vai.

Rats.

Anyway yeah, I read the book when it came out. In a nutshell, she got a job on tv and married Ed, who was first sweet and then not. She starred in a bunch of tv movies that nobody remembers, had a kid and got really fat. She lost the weight, wrote a book and still has not made a film that anyone remembers.

Utterly riveting reading.

Damn.

And here I was going over my lines to find one that would work on you.

No, no, don't you worry, you'll always have Blackfag.

Cheers! :bottle:

Utterly riveting reading.

Certainly not.



However the dealings with spED, and some behind the scenes glimpses of the CASH GRAB / DADDY KNOWS BEST tour was cool.

Well you're one of the lucky ones then. I made it to chapter five and started bleeding

You have to be a dedicated Van Halen fan to plan through that shit - kudos Lounge.......

[Seshmeister]

More dedicated than me for one.

Are there any zombies in it? Gratuitous sex scenes?

Apparantly she fucked Spielberg.

[Blackflag]

So I guess that's "yes" to both questions...

Also the McKenzie Phillips chapter was interesting.

Aren't you friends with her or something? Seriously? :confused:

I liked her on Dr. Drew. I wonder if she's still sober? When she put her doggy to sleep, I almost cried. Now, who has the mangina? lol

[ThrillsNSpills]

Apparantly she fucked Spielberg.

Perhaps she was the inspiration for E.T.

I was very disappointed by this book.

I wanted to read that chapter about Dave getting her all coked-up and dizzy, bending her over and giving her some bang-bang........they shouldn't have edited that part out.

.....shows you how pathetic her acting career was if she was desperate enough to let Spielberg tap that ass.

What the fuck do you think?

She was married to spED.

lol

I knew her in the early 90's when she was touring with her dad, Scott, and Spanky Mcfarlane. We hung out a few times.

She's actually a really cool chick.



I have a huge love of biographies and autobiographies, especially music and political related.

Fact of the matter is, she didnt exactly come off as "the victim" in this book, she took her lumps.

Whoever ghosted it for her was pretty good.




I want to read Mack's next, and compare it to Papa John and California Dreaming
