Jahfin Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Do you know about 'On the Road' movie? Around ten years ago or so I remember reading that Francis Ford Coppola was attempting to turn it into a movie but I don't know what ever became of it. Do you know of another project?

turnthepage Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 What am I reading....? Fallen Angel: The Untold Story of Jimmy Page and Led Zeppelin. Not crazy about it but it's the last book I have so I'm struggling through it. If I would have known it was a study of Satanism and how to connect with him then I wouldn't have spent my hard earned money on it. Yawn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redrum Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 I just finished 'What Falls Away' by Mia Farrow and let's just say my opinion of Woody Allen has sunk to a new low. I wish Sinatra HAD broken his legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S. Flavius Mercurius Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 ' For at least the fifth time! Not only is this a truly great biography of Bob Marley, it's also a very detailed and in-depth book about the long and fascinating history of Jamaica. A must-read for any Marley fan.

Jahfin Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 More of a coffee table book than anything but still a very fun and fascinating read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jahfin Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 ^^ Looks very interesting. Being a Deadhead myself, I know firsthand that Deadheads can come up with some very interesting things! It's sort of a sequel to The Official Book of the Deadheads which came out in the early 80s, also a very fun and enlightening read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebk Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 The Art of Fielding by Chad Harbach How do you like it? I read a couple of good reviews in the papers, but when I went to Amazon to buy it, the reader reviews were quite mixed, so I didn't get it. Should I take the plunge?

Bayougal65 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 The Gorilla Man and the Empress of Steak: a memoir about fiesty, flamboyant, ruthless, Ruth Fertel who founded the Ruth’s Chris Steak House and Rodney Fertel, her 100% certifiable, larger-than-life, eccentric, couillon of a husband!!! It is written by their son and is very bittersweet, funny and raw! And best of all, it is as New Orleans as you can get! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
