Why go for discount- as much royalties to the author as possible, more $ might even filter through to Nicky - depending on their contract????Sainternist wrote: ↑Wed 20 Sep 2023 4:23pm You can pre-order it here with a significant discount:

100% agree. I’ve always found the difference between a great autobiography and a mediocre one is the level of honesty the author is prepared to put across.
Whilst I agree with the sentiment, I’m not sure that discount would get in the way of Nicky’s return.loris wrote: ↑Wed 20 Sep 2023 6:00pmWhy go for discount- as much royalties to the author as possible, more $ might even filter through to Nicky - depending on their contract????Sainternist wrote: ↑Wed 20 Sep 2023 4:23pm You can pre-order it here with a significant discount:

If you enjoyed Clapton's biography, also worth a read is Hellraiser (Baker) & Composing Himself (Bruce) biographies.The Fireman wrote: ↑Sun 29 Oct 2023 9:51am Nick is genuinely a ripper bloke, he will have a chat to anyone, even the likes, of say, a Vortex type.
And as said earlier, some autos are hit and miss, for eg after reading the Eric clapton auto I disliked the bloke, so couldn't help thinking it was an honest one.
I'm sure this is impossible to occur with Nick's book.
Yeah have seen the Hell raiser one around, I must get it...baker was really out there.D.B.Cooper wrote: ↑Sun 29 Oct 2023 2:15pmIf you enjoyed Clapton's biography, also worth a read is Hellraiser (Baker) & Composing Himself (Bruce) biographies.The Fireman wrote: ↑Sun 29 Oct 2023 9:51am Nick is genuinely a ripper bloke, he will have a chat to anyone, even the likes, of say, a Vortex type.

I enjoyed reading Cuz’s book, it was a great read and gave a lot of insight into his life before and after playing AFL football. I agree with you about the Collingwood FC, they were disgraceful then but hopefully have started to improve. For Nicky to forgive them it shows the quality of man that he is. What Collingwood President Alan McAlister did post that infamous match was disgusting. The filth supporters targeting Nicky’s House shows their moronic brain dead mind set.
