Yes bassist Chris Squire is writing his autobiography.

The 66-year-old musician, who rose to fame in the progressive rock band in the late 1960s, has been working on his memoirs with actor friend Vincent Gallo and hopes to sign a publishing deal within the next year.

He exclusively BANG Showbiz: ''I sit down with him, we talk, we record it, then he goes and transcribes it.

''We're about half way through that and have been working on it for about a year.

''We have to schedule time, he lives in Los Angeles and I live in Phoenix in Arizona. We have to find time to do it, sometimes I'll go to him, sometimes he comes to me.''

Having previously spoken about his experiences with LSD and marijuana during the 1960s, the book is expected to detail crazy nights on the road as well as chapters about his earlier life and his love of music.

Chris explained: ''It's a general overall conversation about my life. Hopefully within a year we'll be able to wrap it up and get it out there. We haven't signed a deal yet, we'll get it written first, I've talked to various people about doing it before.

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
