Nikki Sixx said he was all in favor of Motley Crue continuing as avatars once the real-life band members are gone. The bassist argued that, as long as certain values were assured, it represented an opportunity to keep their music alive for decades to come. “I love technology,” Sixx told Swedish radio station Rockklassiker in a recent interview. “I think [it’s good] as long as it’s coming from an artist that says, ‘I have something I wanna do and this technology is gonna help.’” READ MORE: Underrated Motley Crue: The Most Overlooked Song From Each Album He added: “At some point, we’re not gonna...

John 5 took to social media to refute allegations that he mimed his guitar parts onstage with Motley Crue. These claims have been peddled on YouTube over the past few days and shared by certain rock and metal sites. One such video asserted that 5 was not playing during “Wild Side” — and at first glance, it does indeed look like the song continues while the guitarist is not moving his hands. However, in a video posted to Instagram on Tuesday morning (which you can watch below), 5 addressed these accusations and offered a technical explanation for what he was doing. “I do this thing where I flip...

Motley Crue’s hugely popular album Dr. Feelgood turns 35 this year, and the band is admittedly in awe of the milestone. “Where the fuck did the time go?” Tommy Lee declared while discussing the anniversary with Allison Hagendorf. “I mean, our girlfriends and wives are just barely older than that,” chimed in Nikki Sixx, drawing laughs from the other members of the band. “I guess they’re vintage too now. Finally!” Reflecting on the creation of Dr. Feelgood, Sixx soon took a more reflective tone. READ MORE: Motley Crue Albums Ranked “You know what was great about that record? [Producer] Bob Rock ...

Nikki Sixx has admitted that he still feels bad about taking John 5 from Rob Zombie. In October 2022, John 5 was announced as the replacement for Mick Mars, who was retiring from touring after 40 years with the Crue. John 5 had history with Sixx, having worked with him the band Sixx:A.M. and various other projects, so he was a natural choice to join Motley’s ranks. Only problem, he was still a member of Zombie’s band at the time. “It was one of those things that I feel bad about,” Sixx admitted during a recent appearance on the Mistress Carrie Podcast (as transcribed by Blabbermouth). “It wasn...

Motley Crue frontman Vince Neil took a serious looking fall during the band’s performance in Atlantic City on Friday night (May 3). The group was only a few songs into its tour-launching show when they began rocking through their 1987 tune “Wild Side.” As Motley Crue tore through the song’s famous opening riffs, Neil began skipping from one side of the stage to the other. The frontman then tripped, sending him sprawling face first onto the stage. Impressively, Neil didn’t let the wipe out keep him down for long. The singer was back on his feet and ready to rock again when “Wild Side”’s vocals ...

Motley Crue kicked off their 2024 North American tour on Friday at Atlantic City, New Jersey’s Hard Rock Live, dusting off a Too Fast for Love deep cut and giving their new song “Dogs of War” its live debut. You can see the set list and videos from the performance below. The rockers’ 14-song set was almost the same as the one they’ve been using since embarking on the Stadium Tour in 2022, though they swapped “The Dirt (Est. 1981)” for “Dogs of War” and omitted the Dr. Feelgood single “Don’t Go Away Mad (Just Go Away).” In its place, they played Too Fast for Love‘s “On With the Show” for the fi...

Vince Neil doesn’t expect Motley Crue to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame any time soon. Despite being eligible since 2007, the hugely popular band has never even received a nomination. That hasn’t stopped the Crue’s fans from championing their cause – or the musicians themselves from pondering the possibility. “I think it’d be pretty cool to be inducted,” Neil admitted during an interview with WMMR Philadelphia, “but we’ll probably be dead when they induct us.” Drummer Tommy Lee, who was also part of the interview, revealed conflicted feelings towards the Hall, alluding to many o...

Vince Neil revealed the downside to opening for Van Halen with Sammy Hagar during his ‘90s solo period. The singer had split with Motley Crue after being accused of having lost interest in making music. In a recent interview with the Outsider podcast (video below), he was asked if it had been difficult to head out as a solo artist in 1992. “No – it was great!” Neil said. “I opened for Van Halen, my first tour as a solo artist. … It was pretty cool.
