Rating: Summary: Collateral Damage Rocks Review: Mark Manning loves women. He has just released a handbag sized book, so that it can be stuffed in along with the tissues, lipsticks, keys, fags, bits of envelope and Orbit sugar free, and so that just as he promises, he will always be with us. Ostensibly, this book is a journal of Zodiac Mindwarp and The Love Reaction's recent post-9/11 tour of the States. It documents their movements across the States and has some boss photos of the tour in action. But there is more than this between the covers. Read carefully, be mindful of the substance abuse, be amused by the entertaining lies, muse upon the wordplay. But be more careful to identify the truth, as when you find it, it is profound, and will make your heart soar and sink by turns. Mr Manning can see all that is inspirational and sickening on planet earth and inside himself, and he weaves it into cartoons and parables to sustain the rest of us who are cursed with artistic and economic cataracts. True prophets acknowledge that sometimes the wheat will fall on stony ground, but I really rated this little book for it's beautiful mess, cynical chuckles and especially for the queeny bickering and tramp fighting.
