A deeply personal plunge into Sixx's dysfunctional upbringing....The journey from Feranna to Sixx - a name he maybe, sort of stole from another local musician who had dubbed himself Niki Syxx - is a fraught and complicated one. But it's a story that Sixx shares with humor and honesty. USA Today Amazing... The First 21: How I Became Nikki Sixx is the origin story many have been waiting for.... There are many poignant moments and stunning revelations. You'll learn how he went from sweeping floors to selling out shows at The Starwood, the artists and authors who inspired him, the meaning behind the trademark black lines he wears onstage, how he ripped off everything from Johnny Thunders' look to the name Nikki Sixx, and how James Caan almost lassoed him poolside.
