They do think of themselves as monsters of Rock and maybe they were in the 80s. They certainly partied just as much as Zeppelin did, but please, leave Def Leppard outside the comparision. They had huge success but were never known to be party animals. They were the "nice guys" of "metal" (read hard rock).
Wehther you like Motley or not, make sure to read The Dirt, their auto-biography. Every page is juicy and you'll see there's nothing they haven't done.

I am gonna start my own band and top them!
On another note, I kind of enjoy when these books are mainly about music / background / facts, of course debauchery is an essential part of rock, but it can't be turned into some tabloid reading for those, who never went on a real rampage.
That's why I haven't read the Richard Cole's "stairway to heaven" and rather read the "Hammer of the gods" for example, I know Cole has been in some deep shit, so he had to write something that had to GUARANTEE to make a buck.
