Praise for the award-winning "Rock & Roll Nightmares: True Stories, Vol 1" "MTV's Headbangers Ball" meets "Tales from the Crypt" - perfect entertainment for anyone who's ever played "Stairway to Heaven" backwards to hear the mumbled phrase "Here's to my sweet Satan." (Variety) "There's gallows humor galore but it's tempered with Wilson's empathy, ability to see several sides of a situation, and her obvious love of classic rock music and the people who created it." (On the Rock Block) "I loved this book and couldn't put it down once I started. Staci Wilson has a wonderful writing style, lean and expressive." (5-star Amazon review) "I really, really thought going into this book I'd know most of the stories. Not even close! I learned something new every page if not every paragraph about the mad excesses, personal tragedies or just bad luck that legendarily befalls musicians." (5-star Amazon review) "Wilson's extensive research sifts the facts from hearsay. I don't care how much you know about rock gossip. You'll be surprised and shocked by some of the anecdotes." (Rock Bottom Reviews) "For fans of rock 'n roll - and the macabre - it doesn't get much better than this book." (5-star Good Reads review)
