520    In this bold and candid memoir, music legend Billy Idol 
       shares his life story, from his childhood in England to 
       his rise to fame during the height of the punk pop 
       revolution, revealing intimate details about the sex, 
       drugs, and rock and roll that he is so fabulously famous 
       for-all told in his own utterly indelible voice. An 
       integral member of the punk rock revolution whose music 
       crossed over into '80s pop mainstream--and one of MTV's 
       first stars--Billy Idol remains an iconic music legend. 
       Now, in his long awaited Dancing With Myself, he delivers 
       a lively, candid account of his journey to fame, including
       intimate and unapologetic details about his life's highs 
       and lows, all rendered with the in your face attitude and 
       exuberance his fans have embraced. Idol brings to life the
       key events that shaped his life, his music, and his career,
       including his early childhood in England, his year at 
       Sussex University, and his time spent hanging out with the
       Sex Pistols and as a member of punk bands Chelsea and 
       Generation X. He shares outtakes from his wildly and 
       unexpectedly successful solo career and stories behind his
       string of popular hits, including "White Wedding," "Eyes 
       Without a Face," and "Rebel Yell," which involved close 
       collaboration with Steve Stevens and ultimately led to the
       creation of some of the most groundbreaking music videos 
       ever seen. Featuring sixteen pages of full color, behind 
       the scenes photos, Dancing With Myself is both a tale of 
       survival and a celebration of the heady days when punk was
       born, a compelling and satisfying insider's tale from a 
       man who made music history firsthand.
