Steve Blacknell’s Memoir is Pure Rock ’n’ Roll Mayhem
Hold onto your leather jackets – the wildest ride of 2025 is here.
Steve Blacknell – TV face, radio voice, rock PR, and the man who dated Kate Bush – is dropping his bombshell memoir Tales From The Bedroom Wall on July 9th, and it is everything. The highs? Concorde with Phil Collins to Live Aid. MTV fame. Hanging with Alice Cooper, Lemmy, and David Cassidy – often in hot tubs or backstage chaos. The lows? Addiction. Broken hearts. A speedboat explosion!
His rollercoaster love life includes a marriage to iconic ‘60s groupie Catherine James, who once lived with Mick Jaggerand was Eric Clapton’s muse. But it’s not just name-dropping. Blacknell opens up about his bulimia, lost fortunes, and his long, winding path back to the love of his life, Maggie.
With a foreword from Bill Wyman and stories that read like a rockumentary on steroids, this memoir is as outrageous and addictive as the man himself.
Available July 9th from Old Treacle Press. Rock on.
The Whittley Agency hosted an unforgettable sold-out evening celebrating NBA legend Allen Iverson and the release of his powerful new memoir, “Misunderstood.” The event brought out Atlanta’s elite and passionate fans for a night filled with energy, reflection, and celebration.
The Q&A session was conducted by none other than rapper and entrepreneur T.I., who led a dynamic conversation that gave fans a rare look into Iverson’s journey, legacy, and lessons learned. The atmosphere reached new heights as Iverson was presented with an official proclamation from the City of Atlanta, honoring his impact both on and off the court.
Former Mayor Kasim Reed and music mogul Jermaine Dupri were among the notable guests in attendance, adding star power to an already electric night.
Behind the turntables, DJ Trauma kept the vibes high, while MC Jahliel Thurman kept the crowd engaged and energized throughout the evening. From start to finish, the audience was live, tuned in, and celebrating a true icon.
This event was a testament to Iverson’s enduring influence and The Whittley Agency’s continued excellence in curating world-class experiences that bring culture, community, and conversation together under one roof.
