I'm reading Jericho's second book now. It's very entertaining and funny, but not as good as the first one so far, mostly because I really don't care about his music career and it seems like every other chapter goes back to it. He has some amusing anecdotes and good insights about the music business, but as someone who isn't interested in his kind of music, those chapters don't do much for me.
He also goes a little overboard with the pop culture references sometimes too. Some of them are cute and surprising in a good way. Unfortunately, others are so cheesy they just make me cringe. Especially when he says stuff like,
"Heath Ledger as The Joker has nothing on me" after telling a joke, or
"This was a mystery even Robert Downey Jr. couldn't solve".
My favourite parts are the stories about what Vince is like backstage. I can't decide which one is more amazing between the one about Jericho's contract and the one about Chyna. I can't believe a boss could yell at an employee:
"You're not worth the paper your contract is printed on!". That's funny, but also disturbing. It's pure hilarity, though, when he tells Jericho not to worry about being too rough with Chyna, only to later yell in a rage,
"HOW COULD YOU DO THAT? GOOD GOD, MAN, SHE'S A WOMAN!" after Chris gave her a little bit of a black eye.
Oh Vince, you incorrigible bastard.
