jeez - how many more Manic-ish books are to come out, there's been two years. These will be the best by far tho.

Hoping for poetry as number two. Hint seems big as that' what he was talking about at the end

Maybe poetry illustrated with other polaroids (that don't have anything to do with the band).

I'd like to see Nicky being interviewed by all the bands he's slagged off over the years. It would be a rock'n'roll roasting. In fact I'd sell my Suicide Alley to commission it.

Failing even that, an encyclopedia of very un-rock'n'roll injuries (& feeling a bit poorly) or a users guide to finding Sky Sports (or Ceefax) in hotels around the world.

An encyclopedia of musical acts, with his snarky and colorful commentary for each one. A burn book of sorts for the music industry heh.

Nicky's book on current politics, with a whole chapter slagging off DCameron&Nick Clegg. I suppose he's sad he shares the name with Mr. Clegg.

This is the first from the Manics themselves though. Makes you wonder if Nicky is growing other ambitions; very interesting!

Aren't The Unwritten Diaries = JFPL?

As in, Richey's collection of unpublished lyrics?

A new photobook will be nice, as I really liked the FD one. Hope the other book isn't just lyrics though.

This all sounds very interesting - I echo people hoping the second book is the long awaited Nicky Wire penned history of the band, putting right any errors in "Everything" that he's been promising for years lol. Also, really looking forward to the polaroid book - I loved, loved, loved, Mitch Ikeda's book, it's one of my favourite Manicsy items that I own
