Reviews

Matt Stocks is a one of a kind character whose genuine good nature and playful curiosity shines through every conversation I've been fortunate enough to have had with him--and will undoubtedly shine through these pages onto all readers alike. --Laura Jane Grace (Musician/Author) Matt Stocks extracts stories out of me that I had no intention of telling. But I don't mind giving them up to him because he's such a charmer. Reading this book, it seems like I'm not the only one who couldn't resist. --Danko Jones (Musician/Author) I've known Matt for many years now, so I can safely say he is a friend. I must admit, though, I'm first and foremost a fan of his work. I've done hundreds of interviews all over the world and there are very few people who can hold a candle to this man. He has a natural way about him. --Jesse Leach (Killswitch Engage)
