Does the Noise In My Head Bother You?

Right now, I am few chapters away from reading Steven Tyler’s memoir “Does The Noise In My Head Bother You?”

As much as I want to claim that I blazed through the book and finished it in a couple of days, I must admit that I have not yet finished it but I am cherishing it. Does that make sense?

Right from the first few lines of the Semiprologue, Steven Tyler and his co-writer have caught me hook, line, and sinker.

I am not sure if I am ready to declare that the book is profound nor am I equipped to make a review. But I just want to say that the book is quite entertaining, creative, inspiring, and funny!

Somebody told me that it is not Steven Tyler who wrote the book, but you have to admit, it is quite convincing. The words and the “voice” that the book has literally screams Steven Tyler, and his wackiness, loose-cannonball ideas and what-not are evident as well. I do not mind it at all. I guess I can relate.. my head is as noisy as his head.

My brain spouts gazillion ideas in one hour, making it hard for me to zone in on one idea and just FOCUS! So.. Steven and I have noisy minds.. but unlike his mind, my thoughts are not getting published. Not even on the web! 😛

For some reason, it is taking me the same amount of time to get through the book as I would a book written by Robert Fulghum. I take in all the things that Steven Tyler is talking about, and all these philosophies that he just throws at you.

It is truly a delight so far.

Suffice it to say that I feel stirrings of inspiration despite the current writing stump, and I tip my hat to Steven Tyler for making me happy.

Now… where do I get a paperback version of this book?
