Description

"An intimate, behind-the-scenes glimpse into life as the rhythm guitarist, songwriter, and co-founder of the all-female, multi-platinum-selling band the Go-Go's-both onstage and off The Go-Go's were the first all-woman rock group to hit number one on the Billboard charts while playing their own instruments and performing original songs.. As guitarist and lyricist, Jane Wiedlin helped define that revolution. In her memoir, she shares the raw, unvarnished journey of an artist who overcame it all. From the early L.A. punk scene, Jane's song "Our Lips Are Sealed" catapulted the band to fame. The Go-Go's hit dizzying heights, only to splinter apart in a whirlwind of touring, tension, and chaos rivaling any band of the era. Yet Jane's story goes far beyond the stage. TMI is a vivid account of rock excess and Hollywood drama. Jane opens up about childhood tragedy, mental health struggles, shattered relationships, and her own relentless reinvention. She tells how she taught herself music from scratch, worked as a "slave" in a world-famous BDSM dungeon, and became the world's first atheist minister. Through it all, Jane Wiedlin's story is as candid, defiant, and unforgettable as the music that defined a generation"--
