Pearl Jam lead guitarist Mike McCready is releasing a 240-page book of photos from throughout his years in the band.
Of Potato Heads and Polaroids: My Life Inside and Out of Pearl Jam will be out in May.
A press release for the book explains:
“Ever since the legendary band Pearl Jam was first created, its lead guitarist, Mike McCready, could always be counted on to have his trusty Polaroid camera at his side. He went on to document years of touring, meeting scores of his heroes, spending time with friends, and experiencing art, nature, and architecture.
“Not one to take things too seriously, Mike often brought along his pal, Mr. Potato Head and would ask celebrities, friends, and family to take a Polaroid photo with him. Needless to say, Mike captured endless strange looks and creative poses in response.”
There are numerous behind-the-scenes shots of Pearl Jam in the book, as well as candid pics of the likes of Venus Williams, Dennis Rodman, Neil Young, Jimmy Page, Lady Gaga, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, and Jimmy Fallon.
