During this unparalleled run of success debauchery and drama no one was closer to the band than Noel Monk. A man who’d worked with some of rock’s biggest and most notorious names Monk spent seven years with Van Halen serving first as their tour manger then as their personal manager until 1985 when both he and David Lee Roth exited as controversy backstabbing and disappointment consumed the band.Throughout Van Halen’s meteoric rise and abrupt halt this confidant fixer friend and promoter saw it all and lived to tell. Now for the first time he shares the most outrageous escapades—from their coming of age to their most shocking behavior on the road; from Eddie’s courtship and high profile wedding to Valerie Bertinelli to the incredible drug use which would ultimately lead to everyone’s demise. Sharing never-before-told stories Monk paints a compelling portrait of Eddie Van Halen bringing into focus the unique combination of talent vision hardship and naiveté that shaped one of the greatest rock guitarists of all time—and made him and his brother vulnerable to the trappings and failings of fame. Illustrated with dozens of rare photographs from Monk’s vaults Runnin’ with the Devil is manna from rock heaven no Van Halen fan can miss.</p> Dey Street Books hardcover
