Summary

Pamela Des Barres, celebrated “queen of the groupies,” chronicled her adventures with rock stars in her bestseller I’m with the Band. This book picks up where that one left off, with Pamela embarking on marriage and motherhood, all the while sharing quarters and making friends with stars: Don Johnson, Steve Jones, Sylvester Stallone, Bob Dylan, Dennis Hopper, Sandra Bernhard. But this is a survivor’s story about the anguish of coping with loved ones’ addictions, about suffering divorce, about the joys and terrors of raising a gifted son. And Pamela comes through it all with her grace, charm, and generous sense of humor intact. Now updated to include the next sixteen years of Pamela’s adventures, this is a rollicking, piquant, and heartbreaking memoir.

Fantastic story of an amazing person

Pamela Des Barres doesn't apologise for who she is - she celebrates it. And so she should: a woman wringing every drop out of a life that landed her in the middle of the 60s and 70s rock and pop universe. I was worried that her positivity might be grating but it's infectious - even when she's telling tales of broken hearts, her story is uplifting.

I really recommend this book - there are so many stories in here and they're all worth reading. In a world that tries to shame people for the stuff Pamela spent her young life doing, this is a really positive dose of rock and personal history.
