Autobiography anthony kiedis biography
•
Back in 2002, Red Hot Chili Peppers frontman Anthony Kiedis sing-screamed “Choose not a life of imitation” in the song “Can't Stop”. Clearly, he wasn't talking about having a film made about his own life.
It's now been announced that a biopic is in the works for Scar Tissue, the 2004 autobiography Kiedis penned about his early life and rise to fame with the Chilis. Kiedis grew up in L.A. and, like many a rockstar before him, struggled with drug addiction – meaning that much of Scar Tissue is centred around his battles with substances. But there are other elements to the memoir, too: an unconventional father-son relationship, child acting roles, partying way before you should be partying (who goes to clubs when they're 12?), all set to a scenic backdrop of late 1970s rock and 1980s L.A. punk scenes respectively.
Although it's very early days, here's everything we know about the upcoming Scar Tissue biopic.
What is Scar Tissue about?
Scar Tissue chronicles the life of Kiedis with the help of co-author Larry Sloman, taking us through, in sometimes extremely minute and candid detail, the entire life of the Red Hot Chilis frontman up until 2004 when it was written.

Memoir by Anthony Kiedis
Scar Tissue is the autobiography of Red Hot Chili Peppers vocalist Anthony Kiedis. It was released in 2004 by Hyperion and authored by Kiedis with Larry Sloman, who compiled information and conducted interviews. The book reached No. 1 on The New York Times Best Seller List. An audiobook version, read by actor Rider Strong, was released by Phoenix Audio on June 30, 2006. An E-book version is also available.
Background
[edit]The book follows Kiedis's life from his birth in 1962 to early 2004. It follows Kiedis into the depth of his experiences with drug addiction. The title name was taken from the single "Scar Tissue" released five years earlier on the Red Hot Chili Peppers album Californication.
According to the book, Kiedis's first drug experience was with his father Blackie Dammett, a former drug dealer, at age eleven. By the time his band formed and became more popular in the 1980s, he and former bandmate Hillel Slovak had severe drug addictions. On Slovak's death from overdose in 1988, Kiedis writes that he was so shaken that he skipped town, missing the funeral. Kiedis had no idea what to do without his friend. His death only made matters worse and caused him to do more and more hardcore drugs.[1&
