I wouldn't call it uninteresting. I always found it a nice look behind the scenes of a touring band. But you're right that it didn't reveal anything very special. For most part it revealed the stuff everybody expected from a rock band either way.
Talking about embellishment: I always found it quite amusing how he described that every band member and every roadie screwed every groupie they wanted to but that he himself alsways was the angel of innocence with no escapade ever happening.
Yeah, since he already was married with his current wife it absolutely makes sense that he didn't incriminate himself. But that always was a point that bothered me.
