I don't know why anyone even feels as if they need tol, first, redeem themselves, as to whether they like Nikki, or not, as if rock n' roll is about technical skills. It's like me. I am an a#1 Heavy Metal fan, and itbis still my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE style of music, butbI have never had interest in most of the bands that don't have rock n' roll sensibility to them! If I want tecnical, I will listen to Classical or Jazz, but in my hard and heavy music, I want some blues and rock n' roll blended in there, too. Like Dream Theater and stuff? No way!!!

Kentucky Bear Arms, with a simple word, or words being spelled incorrectly, yet larger words invariably are not misspelled, you certainly would easily see that it was...oh, I don't know, a typo? Why don't you stay on point, instead of giving someone a lesson in spelling. I mean, with a name such as, "Kentucky Bear Arm," I think that I can safely assume that NO SCHOOL WORK WAS, OR EVER HAD EXACTLY BREN your forte, yourself. This said, what I had properly put concerning Nikki Sixx still stands, and holds water. Have you ever heard that expression, KBA? I mean, because I don't want to chance that you have taken it literally. After all, here in the coming weeks, I don't want you to make an ass of yourself by hitting me back, inquiring about how, "Hey, Nikki Sixx isn't holding any water," etc., etc.! Get my drift you fucking dummy?

You must have lost your grip on reality didn't you read the dirt Nicky's on Book and the quote from Alice Cooper. Saying in essence Nikki could not play the base to save his life however that never stopped Gene Simmons. I'm paraphrasing here. ... Even niki will admit he's not Billy Sheehan or jon from The who. The yes he wrote some killer songs on the back of pizza boxes.. and even though they knocked theater pain I still love that. But I think we both had that ouch moment during the solo or it's obvious he's blast and can't play right anyway

That raw guitar sound is amazing

Guns n' Rose's, LA GUNS, Faster Pussycat, Hanoi Rocks, Slave Raider, Megadeth, Exodus, Anthrax, Warlock, Yngwie Malmasteen, Metal Church, King Diamond, Laaz Rocket, old Metallica, Slayer, Obituary, Van Halen, Y &T, Poison, Vinnie Vincent Invasion, Twisted Sister, Merciful Fate, etc.!

Favorite band, first concert ever, 10-15-87, right after we had our last freshman football game (Mt. Si). We were undefeated, last game of the year versus Mt Ranier, who was undefeated, we were up the whole game, last minute they threw a bomb that went just over my friend's fingertips, they caught it and scored. First and only loss, we were crushed until we started drinking beer with my sister and heading to see The Crue. Awesome night! "Fuckin' down it, Sixx!" Remember that like yesterday!

I think today's parties are way more wild than you had in the 80s. And you don't know much about music or just our generation. All you probably know about is the 80s musics. Rap and rnb are not that popular. EDM and mumble rap and hip hop are way more popular. Even though Im that kind of dude who listen to GNR, Motley crue, Judas priest, Iron maiden i don't miss an occasion to go to a party. and Girls are way more wild than in the 80s imo

people can talk crap all they want..but they are the band to beat..Love Crue!!

I don't think anyone understands Nikki Sixx's intellect, he may not be the best bass player, but I bet if any of you went up to him and tried making a chorus for a song or anything, he would take u to the curb, he wrote just about every Crue song out there, and is writing more music for Sixx am, and has written music for countless other bands that have became popular, so don't underestimate Sixx cuz of his bass skills, he doesn't intend to be the fastest mother fucker, he wants to be real with

I honestly like the live version of this tune; the album track just sounds too ponderous and over-produced. Also, I still find it hard to believe that Motley Crue could even stand on stage for the duration of a concert considering these and any other antics they might've gotten up to...just during the concert. As one of the band members from Guns 'N Roses put it: "We were doing a lot of really messed-up stuff...but we didn't even touch the outer orbit of Motley Crue when it came to drug use and alcohol."
