Richie Sambora’s story is to be included into a new “Chicken Soup for the Soul” book focusing on musicians. (You can check out the press release at Reuters.)
Unfortunately it also includes stories from the likes of Kanye West, Christina Aguilera, Melissa Etheridge and Paul Anka, all of whom qualify as resounding disincentives to buy the book, at least in my world. I don’t like any of them, some to a greater degree than others. Etheridge in particular is one of the people whose work is part of the reason that I hated music during my teenage years.
Plus, these books are really expensive, especially if I only want one story out of the whole thing. The list price for them is $14.95. (You can get them for $10.17 if you buy ‘em from Amazon, but that’s still expensive when I only want one story out of the whole book.)
It’s also supposed to include stories from Mick Jones and Joan Jett, whose stories I probably wouldn’t mind reading, but aren’t anything that I would particularly seek out, either.
Sorry Richie, but I’d rather drop my $15 on a used Xbox game at the Gamestop.
