Kelly traces his personal history with music, from the California Raisins, to the Temptations. From New Kids on the Block concerts, to Stone Temple Pilots and Nirvana. There are so many anecdotes and stories in this issue, it's hard to pick favorites. But I especially enjoyed the sections on Golden Slipper Camp, where Kelly was a councilor for half his life. Every year each cabin would perform a different song for MTV Night, including Aerosmith and Meatloaf songs. Kelly remembers every performance he was ever in! I also really liked the section he wrote about his mom's embarrassing musical behavior, including singing It Ain't My Fault 2 by Silkk the Shocker after she completed a day of jury duty.
