If not for Mick Mars, they would have never been a thing. He accounted for ALL the musicianship in that band. He was their ENTIRE sound.
Absofuckinglutely 💯 correct. No more gigs for them. Back to daytime 9 to 5 work.
Vince carried Nikki. Mick created MC sound.
Vince is one of the worst vocalist that made millions can you imagine him going on the voice or even busking you would give him money to stop singing that wining voice the guy can't sing for shit Kurt cobain.. layne Stanley and others yeah they can sing live .. vince 🙈 imagine him mtv live 😢
And yet he was the least appreciated member by his own bandmates.
I totally agree 👍🏻
I live in Indiana. In 1990 I had a friend who went to jail for 3 years for marijuanna. No one died. No one was harmed. He wasn't famous. Just an average kid who got caught with some pot. 3 YEARS. To think Vince Neil got off with 30 days for killing someone is unthinkable.
Well Vince meal is a bit challenging with no talent.
My best friend, a complete pacifist, spent 12 1/2 years of a 25 year sentence for selling a sheet of LSD to an adult. This d-bag KILLS his passenger, and severely disables the innocent victims in the other car, and spends hardly any time in the pokey, and spends the time he WAS locked up, sampling the delights of the various and sundry visiting skanks escorted to his actual cell by jail guards/babysitters. As if the fucking mediocre songwriting and musicianship weren't unjust enough. And the fact that portly Vince had the bad taste to venture into auto racing, is just magically devoid of self-aware ness.
Easy answer to that. Expensive lawyers.
@@consolegamer8871
You got it.
The lawyers make the difference.
Nothing tragic about this band, especially since almost everything they did to themselves was self inflicted.
Tragic for the people involuntarily affected by their actions
It always helps to have a tiny bit of talent and a very rich Uncle that's an executive in the music industry.

We should put Axel and Vince in the ring now, that would be hilarious 😂😂
Indeed 💯
A battle of who will be out of breath faster.
Quite a few people would pay to see that, even if the "battle" lasted only three minutes.
For A Pie Eating Contest
Nikki is proposing that Motley Crue and Guns N' Roses go on a 2024 tour.
I'm going with Mick on this one..He deserves the whole 25% . Maybe they should go after Vince's share since he only attempts 5% of the lyrics. He eats the other 20.
Spit my water out!
Mick absolutely deserves to keep his full share.
Vince is the worst live front man in rock history
😅😅😅
LOLOLOLOL
Mick Mars should have just said; well, fuck off then already. Then just retired with new found dignity. Pretty sure there’s not a musician alive that didn’t already recognize him as the most proficient member of the band.
Micks tone IS the sound of MC
I never paid attention.
He hasn't retired. He just put out an album. Lmfao! The Other Side of Mars. The only one that was worth a damn, and is worth more than anyone in the band.
Mick deserves his fair share!
Mick is gonna clean 'em out in court
I pray for Mick to clean them out. They did him dirty. They know they did they are just so egotistical and get away with everything to care. Fn' losers. You can be wealthy, famous and powerful but still be an absolute p.o.s.
Tragedy is Skynyrd’s plane going down - these guys deserve their bad luck
Best comment.
Moscow Festival Bon Jovi had to do it as the manager had moved 30 million in drugs
and needed this show that Jon knew he was stuck going there to save the managers ass!
I saw Vince solo and he was greats!
"these guys deserve their bad luck" - It was well earned.
So in your opinion, Vince's 4 year-old daughter deserved to die from stomach cancer?
Dr. Feelgood was the last Crue album! They now look absolutely ridiculous and should have quit 20 years ago.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That would be 2001.....
They even sucked then
Tragic? They brought most of it upon themselves!
There be much truth in that.
the tragedy is how they fucked over everyone around them lol
Well maybe they did but look at them now they've changed who they are and what they do they're very special now and I congratulate them on how far they've come I wish you guys and all the other idiots like you would stop picking on Motley Crue they were bad and now they're bad in the good sense of the word find something better to do and leave Motley Crue alone
@@phyllisgoodson9865 Shame, poor Motley Crue!
Mars was the only adult in the room!
@LSA355 To me, age was never a thing.
Ozzy/Sabbath for example.
Sixx auditioned for Quiet Riot and he sucked so hard at the bass that Randy Rhodes had to tune it for him and show him where to put his fingers on the fretboard. Needless to say he didn't get the job. It doesn't surprise me that he stole his name either.
Ok Randy Rhodes was with Ozzy and Nikki Sixx is an awesome performer the whole band rocked when they were together, yeah Mick Mars had to back out the band but the band of Motley Crue were
@@brendatate1977Randy was with quiet riot first
@user: It was a blessing in disguise that Nikki didn't get the Quiet Riot job. Quiet Riot 1 and 2 sucked hardcore. In fact, Quiet Riot sucked period. lol. They never came close to the success Crue had. And for Nikki not knowing chords and how to tune, he sure composed some kick ass songs, and also co-wrote songs for many artists and groups. lol.
When Steve Harris first started he couldn't tune his own bass and one of the Clee Brothers would do it for him . He's widely regarded as one of the best metal bassists ever . I'm sure Nikky can tune the bass now .
@@TheSavagederekthat’s some good knowledge there! Been a long time crue/ maiden fan and never came across my mind about Steve not knowing how to tune a bass..at 44 years young it goes to prove that you learn something new everyday.
The most tragic story here is one of a band who had it all and lost it.
Lost what? Wow you're dramatic😅 Go listen to Taylor Swift fruitcup
@garymartinez2812 I'll explain it to you, d!ckhe@d. Back in the 80s the Crüe were rock royalty. They released 5 classic albums but then in the early 90s things has completely changed. Vince was gone and neither him or the band succeeded. Grunge/alternative exploded and the new generation had absolutely no interest in the LA rock scene whatsoever. Ever since then they've been more famous their marriages and tabloid antics than their music. Taylor Swift isn't my cup of tea, but I bet you like Kid Rock.🖕🏼
3 heroin overdoses and still alive for one of them isn't losing. It's all the rock star excess that makes the legend that makes touring 40 yrs later more profitable than when they were at their peak.
@garymartinez2812 ooh, touched a nerve did I cuckboy? Taylor Swift isn't my cup of tea but I bet you like Kid Rock.
@@garymartinez2812 Foxtrot Oscar
30 days for homicide by vehicle, which they brought it down to manslaughter, is beyond fucking insane.
suffermenow, it is called paying the da and judge off
It's being a white famous dude in the USA.
@@DrDajom it was also an accident with his close friend and back in the 80s accidents like that were a lot more laid back with the sentence.
How much did he pay to the people who became disabled in the accident? People forget them.
@@DrDajomI got five years in prison for kicking a door and I'm white. I has nothing to do with color. It has everything to do with money and being famous.
When Nikki takes the bandanna off his bonce I bet the hairpiece comes with it 😂
Same as the singer of Poison
and kept in a cage at the bottom of the garden.
Lmao, that's exactly what happens to Axl Rose 😂😂😂😂
Yeah sewn into it.
@@smthnew861 Nah, I know Axl's hair has thinned a lot, but he doesn't wear a 1982 styled wig like Nikki has for 40 years.
And according to Bret Michaels of Poison, he has "the finest eastern European hair extensions" glued onto what's left of his thinning strands.
The bandannas that these old dudes wear are so, so obviously there to stop the lights reflecting off their shiny bald heads. They look ridiculous too.
And Nikki's just a big overinflated wanker.
Nikki Sixx prancing around in those high heeled platforms is hilarious! 😅😂🎉
Going for his Grammy man!!!, lol such an actress , I don't think he ever played a note.😅
I'm sorry you must mean sexy cuz he damn sure was sexy whether he had on Heels or flats or barefooted does it make any difference
It's just amazing to me how they all have no quams about throwing each other under the bus!! Absolutely ZERO LOYALTY!!!! Look what they're trying to do to Mick now!
they arent "trying", they've been literally doing it
This is all 100% the results of Karma.
It's called massive egos
14:59 A person is dead and Sixx talks about the whole thing how horrible it is for him and the band. What an insufferable prick
That accident and Razzle's death was staged for propaganda.
They should have just stayed retired. They are just burning it up and riding on the rims. Sadly
They made $$$ on the stadium tour
@@kevinb3307 Yes, to absolutely suck
What a great metaphor that I've never heard used that way to describe a band continuing to play past their use by date. Brilliant!
@@charlestelk6526 if the idiot fans will come then why not play?
Easy money.
What else are they gonna do?
Retire or flip burgers?
Man, that's the best description of some of these guys. Like when the front man is bouncing on stage with his middle age paunch keeping time with the music, and his man boobs are bigger than my tits, they need to park it.
What amazes me is a band which stopped being relevant in 1989 is still riding on the waves of nostalgia
Like all the others, until they're half dead or half of them are dead
YEAH
THE ONLY BAND WORSE IMO, IS
KISS...
X-MOTLEY FAN
NO MICK, NO MOTLEY
@@trixielonglegs8320 Bon Jovi too..
Not really. New fans were interested in the band in the 90s. Even though in the 00s they only had one album somehow this sparked interest in the band. There are fans of at least three decades that wanted new or old MC. Id say Vince should have gone solo and Sixx should have continued with his SixxAM band since the late 00s.
😂1989 market square arena indy....they tore the roof off that mutha
Stand tall Mr.Mars! In the end, they did you a favor. You're far too talented and iconic to be associated with this version of MC!
Nikki, Vince, and especially Tommy Lee are basically if AIDS, Hepatitis, and Herpes were each a person.
Especially Nikki .. the guy is just a total puke . But tries to pass himself off as a sophisticated .. person . He's like a vulgar teenager in a 60 year old body .
Aids??? Pk buddy

Mixed with a healthy dose of arrogance, cringe and has been.
and all marinated in a Baboons ass.
The last time I saw MC live was in Rochester, NY on the Shout At The Devil Tour opening for Ozzy on his Bark At The Moon Tour. Over 30 years ago. Some guy had dropped his Dug Out Smoker under the bleachers falling to the floor. I was the only one around who could comfortably enter the space under the seating and monkey my way on down to the floor. Upon returning his weed supply he was so happy that he didnt lose it that he gave me $40 which was juicy for a sophmore kid in the early eighties! I bought a red Shout At The Devil t-shirt and a bunch of snacks and soda. "Danger" never sounded so good that night and Jake E. Lee was on fire!
Love it man...I never got to see them only Vince open for Van Halen in 93. Shout is my favorite album by far
I saw that tour in Tampa! My 1st concert at 13yo!
I have 2 dugouts I've had since the 90s that somehow always escaped detection and confiscation. Got searched by a cop with one in my back pocket, thought for sure it was about about to be gone and perhaps me with it, but for whatever reason he didn't search that one pocket. Had to toss another in some rocks along a riverbank, figuring I'd never see it again. Went back the next day and my buddy found it sitting there in plain sight, it's amazing the cops never saw it while scanning the area. There's a certain lifetime love that comes with a good dugout, if you're meant to be together you'll stay together.
On the reverse side, I was once at a concert with friends and a buddy asked a stranger next to us if he could hit his bowl, which apparently he was pretty semtimentally attached to. The guy was cool and obliged. But security spotted him immediately and took it. My friend felt terrible and gave the guy all he had, it was 30 or 40 bucks. It was early in the day of a long 2 act show and the guy seemed okay about it at first but as the day went on he just wouldn't let it go. It taught me a good lesson about not mooching from strangers.
Was Nikki Sixx always a vain pompous tosser? Or was I blinded by loving him lol..I see him talk now and just think oh fuck off..
@@D-Fens_1632 Those are great stories. To the first, a coworker of mine working deckhand job on Lake George, NY had a dug out with laminated Pink Floyd "The Wall" hammers marching on it. I liked it so much he gave it to me. Super nice right? I had it for a while and one day was sharing with a best friend, wrestled in high school together, he really like it so I gave it to him to make him happy. He still has it to this day which has been 30 years.
The part where your friend found it in plain site is something special. God wanted to make sure you were happy. Nice!
Second one is unfortunate but the guy should have let it go, but I undertstand about being careful about asking for certain things. Your friend did what he could to make up for it and if he accepted the $, he needed to let it go. Great memories. You sound like a great person. Cheers brother!
The narrator FORGOT TO MENTION JOAN JETT for the 2022 Stadium Tour!!! I was there and IT WAS AWESOME!!!
Narrator forgot how to speak correctly. The overacting is really annoying. Stopped the video at 20 seconds.
The narrator’s deep, serious tone just serves to magnify the cartoon humor that is Motley Crue. Great video!
It's AI, I imagine...
Absolutely. Had to stop watching bc that stilted language@@bwhammm
AI
ZING!
They can't stay young forever. I have a deep respect for Nikki Sixx for really kicking dope and staying with it. 98% of the drug addicted world can't manage that. Nikki is special for this reason. Plus, in addition, Sixx secretly helps addicts get sober. By now, he responsible for several men finding full sobriety. This is a big achievement to help another human get to where they can thrive. Some say this is a saintly action. Nikki is a philanthropist with a full heart trying to help people as much as they are willing to take step towards sobriety.
Mick Mars has been suffering with disease and he jammed through the ages in pain. We have to give him an award for being the real tough guy of that band.
Mick Mars has been suffering for years and the second Nikki Sixx couldn’t make anymore money off of him, he kicked Mick to the curb.
You have to be able to stand and play at a show. If the guy is too sick, you have to do something. Angus Young chucked Brian Johnson out of AC/DC for a minute because of his ear. He fixed it and is back out there and he's podcasting nicely. I don't know what Mick is up to. I'll look for him online now. Is he talking? @@jackih9682
I wouldnt classify HEROIN as dope. He was so high on heroin he couldnt even hold a fucking pencil. So how could he write down his feelings etc to make the Heroin Diaries book. He couldnt even think straight. Frank is a FRAUD and a liar and a cheat
@@jackih9682 Brian Johnson messed up in AC/DC and Angus kicked him to the curb until he got his hearing fixed. Then, they re-signed him. Music is a ruthless business. The guy is in his 70's. Angus is a 4'-11" hardball businessman.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
My best memory of Motley Crue is that before they were on the scene, my stocks in AquaNet weren't doing so well. Once they started ordering 55gal drums for their shows, the stock shot up. Thanks Nikki and Crue!
The World's Most Notorious Band? You drank your own Kool-Aid.
I'm 58 yo now... i went from 70's rock to thrash metal in the early 80's .. i wasn't a fan of glam rock but i did go to the def leppard stadium tour in Atlanta and in las vegas and Motley Crue was terrible and it was also sad to watch
Crew with Def Leppard? That is like five year old on an NFL team. There is no way anyone should have booked those bands on the same bill. Out of their league.
MC came to Guam, where I was stationed in the Air Force. The lead singer was so loaded that the band used a taped track. Even with the lip sync help, the singer missed cues, running up to the mic stand AFTER the pre-recorded singing had started. My troops were thoroughly disgusted, some of them even tossing the albums into the trash. To be fair, I kept a tape machine on stage in case the technology failed. Computers and software were in their infancy and too unreliable for live performances. It was common for the blazing sun to cause electronics to lock up. Still, MC should've stayed away from the partying and focused on the mission.
For the last, 5 or so yrs. , if I'm hearing an intro to anything later than anything off of Too Fast for Love , whether alone or not, I've caught myself saying out loud , ' ...the most overrated band since post 1980 AC/DC. ' That's how much both bands devolved from somethin rockin , to sucking like an old "pro "on dollar day.
......and..... My self-appointed role of renamer has smeared them lccked down to be forever known as SNOTLEY GOO.
Never really " motley" , and apparently , not much of a " crue ". ( As that implies loyalty, and a bit of a fellowship of mutual respect.) They're the only long hairs on the West coast to bullshit pose on pristine 883s gunnin down Sunset at 3 am clowning like that's just how we live man, we didn't know cameras were there. When that footage of us came to our attention we thought why not put it in the video? WOW. They're millionaires, and those of us that live the life THEY posed as having , have to really work. But we could kick the ink off their human etch a sketch asses. Mars is the only one that does not apply to.
GO MICK!!!🍻💚🍄🎸👍😁✌️✌️
Mick Mars had been the guy that had his shit together, and he had been the one that had been responsible for the Crue'
s success.
R.I.P. Randy Castillo.
Nikki Sixx and his general demeanor of non-interest towards the bass guitar throughout the years took away any surprise of the fact that he has been air-bass-ing to prerecorded live tracks all these years. Totally makes sense now as that is his roll within MC in their live setting. Its his call in how they present themselves while entertaining and no disappointment as a long time listener of the Crue.
It is true that Nikki could barely play bass at all. However, some years ago, he took bass lessons and I've heard him play. He's far from being a great bass player but he can play his own songs.
Having said that, I don't know if it's because he doesn't want to focus on his playing or because he's a perfectionist or...who knows why but he decided that instead of playing live, he would use pre-recorded bass tracks. I understand that for a great rock concert, besides the music, it's very important to have a lot of visuals (things for the audience to see) and have band members that move around onstage and look cool but in their case, it seems like that's all they care about and they don't care about playing their instruments anymore (with the exception of Mick Mars).
Personally, I would be pissed if I paid to see them and instead of watching a live band, I would watch Vince Neil doing Karaoke and the rest of the band (with the exception of John 5) cosplaying themselves using pre-recorded tracks, especially with tickets that cost you an arm or more!!
LOLOLOL i've watched him airbassing and forgetting to stop clapping his hands like a seal and resuming the airbassing. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
They will never be as good as Spinal Tap
🤣
I was diagnosed with AS at 28 after years of severe pain. Since so many doctors have little to no knowledge of AS I was simply told to take Tylenol and use heat. It certainly did lead to substance abuse. It was that or screaming in pain and unable to move. Once I finally found a doctor who listened, and after some tests she knew right away what it was. Started on remicade infusions, and have been great ever since. Still get pain once in awhile, but nothing like before.
Dude I was on my head on my foot almost lost my femur blown left side one month after being married thank thank for la p. belt left me with 62 Grand medical bills farewell My honeymoonb3eeeeee keep on keepin on
That's soo good to hear. Wishing you all the best and always stay in touch with your doctor :)
Nikki Sixx is the brain of Motley Crue. He looked at what made a band great and used little pieces from each band that he liked to form his own band. For example, he liked how Van Halen looked like with a blond frontman that stands out from the rest of the band and that's why he immediately liked Vince Neil. He wrote all the lyrics and came up with ideas for their songs but then let the rest of the band turn those ideas into great songs.
It is true that Nikki could barely play bass at all. However, many years after starting Motley Crue, he took bass lessons. I've heard him play, he's far from being a great bass player but he can play his own songs.

The funny thing is : Vince Neil actually has dark hair and the rest of the band are naturally blond.
Sad to see the contrast between the epic band that opened for Iron Maiden in 1984 and the caricatures of themselves they are now.
It's almost hard to believe the same bloated mess that's currently passing itself off as Motley Crue is the same band that ruled the 80's heavy metal scene. You'd swear it was 2 different bands if you didn't know any better. All the Crisco and shoe horns in the world couldn't get Vince Neil back into those Shout At The Devil-era leather pants ever again!
Vince has lost 50 pounds. He looks much better in 2024.
"couldn't even tune his own guitar"....and 40 years later, he still can't
And he has made millions and millions of dollars, and banged hundreds of beautiful women. I guess knowing how to tune a bass really isn't that important after all.
and still makes way more then us commenting on his life, not the other way around
And he doesn't even play it back tracks.
I'm a noob to bass and just bought a bass and tuned it myself!
We we@@user-oy9zs2ql8y
I think theres a bigger reason why Sixx was kept around.His Uncle was the CEO of Capitol records in L.A. at the time and it makes sense,imo,even tho its never been proven,I will bet anything his uncle made a call for him,because lets be honest here,Nikki Sixx could NOT play bass,I dont even think he played live,I believe they most likely played tape behind him and anither thing,now looking back on the story of him hurtung his shoulder during SATD recordings, makes me think he just couldnt play the songs,but he had to be visually a part of the band because like I said his uncle is probably the one who got them signed,it makes a ton of sense!!And then we have the Matthew Trippe story!!I always wondered about his role if any in this??Now I absolutely would not be surprised if he did do work fir them,because if u think about this,SATD is a 180° turn from TFFL and then Theatre was totally different from SATD and imo it was closer to TFFL then SHOUT so its weird to me,like wtf did Shout come from,in the middle of those two records??And guess what Sixx or the Crue NEVER made another record like Shout until funny enough a new element was added to the band for 1994's self titled with CORABI and once again it was much heavier and Sixx said in an interview from that time period it was SATD 2!?!?lmao,so I may not be far off with this and if he was truly the songwriter for the band hed get the lions share but once again if its to be believed on SM Tommy has earmed almost twice as much as Sixx,wtf would that be,if he was always supposedly the main songwriter??lol,I was a massive Crue fan since mid 80's but now with all thats coming to liggt with the band,espesially the fraudulent shit,I still like the memories and okder stuff ,but I think Nikki Sixx is a huge fraud
Since Theatre of Pain, Motley Crue is dead to me. Haven't gotten a dime from me after that album. They've all become fan scammers in one way or another. They sicken me now.
Why since theater of pain?
I know Nikki aged, but he looks completely different in the picture to the right. Did he have plastic surgery on his face?
It’s a photoshopped picture.
They're all are gender reassigned female-to-males.
Nikki Sixx walked into a music store and stole a 6 string guitar thinking it was a Bass, nuff said. 🤘😆🤘
Why not just retire? How much more money do they need?
Mars is really the driving force. Nikki is a dbag, tommy beats on women and is average at drums. Vince is cool but makes dumb decisions ! Mick we are all behind you ! Since 1982
1981
Is it really tragedy ? They made millions of dollars, made it big as a band....what more can they want ?
Money doesn’t bring happiness. Everything that’s “tragic” is just shit they got themselves into except Vince losing his daughter.
@@Coochiedestroyer23 Money doesn't bring happiness but it gives you the tools to deal with your problems. A person still needs a strong character tho (self-discipline, perseverance...) These Crue guys stories aren't tragic (except Vince losing his daughter as u said) Jason Becker's story is tragic.
What more can they want? How about Peace, dignity, respect, and legacy. You know, the only things that really matter.
@@tahoma6889 They are to blame for not getting respect and dignity, so I don't see that as tragedy. I see Jason Becker's life story as tragedy.
@@LuchaLibertaria Those are not things we "get". They are things we work at, create, and earn. It takes many years to get there. Starting late is bad.
My dad is from California and so growing up, I would frequently hear his classic rock radio stations he would have on. The rock stations would periodically have a Motley Crue song on here and there. My dad does not like Motley Crue. So, hearing about this tea spill and drama with some of the other “classic rock bands” of the same time period such as AC/DC, Guns N’ Roses, and etc. (that I still like and enjoy) was interesting. It almost makes me wonder if the feuds between bands make fans of some of the other bands dislike them purely because of the feuds.
Because I am a casual fan of theirs. In between my freshman and sophomore year of high school (2008), they released their album Saints of Los Angeles. And it gave them a sudden resurgence in popularity. Kinda similar to how Netflix’s The Dirt did in more recent years. And it made me start listening to more of their songs/music. Motley Crue, in my opinion, have some of the worst reputations in rock music when it came/comes to drug and alcohol use/misuse and rowdy behavior. Them and probably The Who. In my mind, I have always lumped Motley Crue and The Who together (despite the two different time periods) because both bands would overindulge in alcohol/use hard drugs and destroy hotel rooms.
But The Who was far more talented as musicians!!
Mick is Motley Crue. The other guys were just filler.
The Motley Crüe self entitled album was awesome and so was Vince’s solo album “Exposed.” I can’t believe the way they’re treating Mick Mars, he’s the only truly talented musician in the band. Fools. I saw there Carnival of Sins tour in 2006 and they sucked so bad. Vince sung maybe 30% of the lyrics leaving the rest to the audience. He was winded and sounded awful, you could tell Nikki wasn’t playing bass and same for Tommy on drums yet they still sounded like shit. I left early so disappointed. I saw their Dr Feelgood tour and it was great. The little stunt they pulled signing the contract saying they’d never tour again was just a way to rip off their fans and it was pathetic. They should have retired in 2000 because now they’re just destroying what’s left of their legacy and destroying their relationships within. The whole thing is about greed and cash. Give up the ghost, as they say. They’re done. Sending my love to Mr. Mick Mars. 🤘🏼
Honestly their first farewell tour was the last time I saw them.
On the other hand now with John5 , is a great guitarist and a honest fit for Micks historic style and fit for the band.
By no means I’ll go see the crue again in my life.
It’s just not the same rude feel these days, now it’s just a different machine.
Crue Tribute Houston blows them away🎸👍🤘🎭
Well said 👏. Mick Mars will rise to the top with a new band playing like a star. As for the other 3? Cleaning toilets, being a kitchen hand whilst Mick Mars and his new band are having dinner at the same place the scrubbers work. Sounds cruel but they deserve it.
My 1st Metal Album:
Quit Riot - Mental Health, On
Tape Cassatte! 😳🤘
Mick Mars is awesome. I never realized how extensive his knowledge and professionalism in musicianship truly is till now. Mick Mars is Motley Crue. The other dudes are just clowns. 🤘😎
That no-Vince Neil / John Corabi Crue album that tanked has some of the coolest guitar work I’ve ever heard.
Nikki's Bass tracks were they recorded for 2024 up coming tour 😂
I heard Bob Rock was ghost playing backstage
Nikki’s photo in the thumbnail look like Ron Jeremy
So detailed in so many ways, but I didn't even hear the Girls, girls, girls album and tour mentioned.
They mentioned the album very briefly at 18:23
It's fkn pathetic that he got 30 days and for good behaviour only had to serve 15 days. It would be really interesting to find out the FULL TRUTH on everything to do with his "punishment"
Rock on Mick and I hope your new album is a major success.
Glam Rock, where the men dressed like women but were still men!
Questionable.
Wow! Great Video Man. Just Subscribed.
This video is awesome! Amazing footage, great editing. Outstanding!
Narrator forgot how to speak correctly. Cannot support that. No common sense. The overacting is really annoying. Stopped the video at 20 seconds.
It’s a shame what’s going on with Mick Mars,I hope they resolve this situation,I’m soooooo happy I was able to see them live before Mick retired from the band
I’d love to see modern Vince Neil fight modern Axl.
It has gotten much worse. I really appreciate what Norah did and I'm deeply saddened to know she chose to unalive herself. So many men make the same choice and to any man struggling with suicidal thoughts, I love you brother. You don't have to go out that way.
Who's Norah?
The Crue is the mullet hair cut in rock and roll! They once was in style!
Hey who's your Dad?🎉
To be fair, they did the big fluffy mullets better than anyone else. Nikki Sixx and Tommy Lee had the best hair in Glam Metal
@@growingupwithfloyd2184 ?
Everyone had that hair in the 80's lol
@@TheBlackQueen that’s funny because the whole time I was thinking Neil had the shiniest, silky blonde hair!
When I heard they self released their first album on their own label, then got signed to a big label afterwards made me think, that's probably what started the craziness. Being successful on their own ideas and marketing is one thing but the big label gave them the funds to become more than musicians. So sad.
The John Corabi Lp. Welcome to the Numb. Hooligans Holiday.
Best disc they ever did.
wait, Motley Crue still exist?!
Whats tragic is Vince Neil's voice now, band was good in the 80's not now
their album with John C is their best effort. And ironically, Vince's first solo album kicks ass.
Lucky for mars? Luckily for the "Crue" they wisened up, mick was the only talent of the band.
Insane take given he hasn’t written anything for them in over 20 years
@@BagOfGum What hit songs have they put out in the last 20 years ?
Hey back in the day they kicked ass man
Crazy from the start to the finish.
My friend lived with Nikki Sixx. He said Sixx woukd wear New Sneakers for every show and give him a box of sneakers ( which were too big fir him ). I dont know why they covered " Smokin In the Boys Room". Brownsville Station were booed at in concert.
My best friend and at the time we where like BROTHERS !!! And I loved the dude. We saw the Devil 😈 concert. But mist the next concert theater of pain. . So kick start my heart ❤️😊🎉😂
Come on man. Vince Neil totally stole David Lee Roth's style. A true admirer of the rock band Sweet. You can see how Tommy Lee looks and drums like Mick Tucker, Nicki Sixx is Andy Scott, and Vince is Brian Connolly. Mick Mars? who knows
Imagine paying $2000 to see Motley Crue and Poison?
I rather pay to see RATT
If you put a decimal point in there and it was $20.00, it's still just a maybe.
@@och70 I wouldn't go if it was free
this band for sure does absolutely have their issues, i also do agree that in their old age they became greedy old a**holes. but you cant deny their absolute success, regardless if you do or dont like them, they still made some of the most ICONIC songs from the 1980's. to be labeled "the worlds most notorious band" is something i myself would even be proud of, its not like motley crue is the only band to do this to themselves, people seem to forget that.
ever since i watched the dirt when it first came out, ive never quit music. theyre the exact reason that me and my band soon will be releasing and album this summer, regardless of what people say about them, i will ALWAYS look up to them, maybe not as people, but as a band that came, they saw, and conquered for so long while being on constant thin ice.
i also saw them on their stadium tour, and i believe they still did good, vince isnt perfect, yeah he skips lyrics, but you guys act like motley songs arent hard to sing, vince back then had a 1 of 1 voice, it was unique. those kinds of things dont last forever. vince is in his early 60's now.
hate all you want, they still had a big impact on music.
Saw them in Texas back in the 80's, with the Japanese metal band , Loudness, opening. The show was good. I never saw them live again. Nothing they've done since has been worth the effort of attending a live show and from what I've read its all canned at this point. Cant sing. Cant play.
aww, I miss Loudness. 🇯🇵
bro actually summarized The Dirt film for us. Yet missed so much. LOL
This wasn't even remotely close to a summary of The Dirt... Probably why he missed so much...Lol
Sixx's Hair looks as fake as His Bass Playing.
He does wear a wig.
Motley Crue was not permanently banned from Edmonton. I seen them live there twice.
WTF… Motley Who 😮
Great band. Great back catalogue of music. Unfortunately nothing tragic. Sometimes one's icons are just assholes
I can think of a lot of things in life that are truly tragic . The “history” of the Crüe ain’t one of ‘em . Just present a story without the unnecessary click bait headline ffs !!!
i agree
I am So Glad that I got to see the Crew. When they still played and sang the songs. Nikki Vince and Tommy use Tracks. They have said it 😅😅.
Well done video. I really enjoyed it.
I’m not a huge fan of MC after what they did to Mick Mars, but using an altered picture of Nikki Sixx makes you seem deceitful.
The Tragic History of Motley Crue. 12.3.24. the past sure is tense.......
What altered picture?
I went to the stadium tour show, and I loved it. It's one of my favorite shows I've been to, and I didn't hear anything of that backing track bull shit
Reminder, Lovefist from GTA VC is literally a mockery based on Motley Crue, to a point their fate on the HD universe is the same.
I saw them play in Hershey, PA about 12-14 years ago. Great show, but it looked like Vince Neil fell down several times while performing. He must've been drunk as fuck.
Now that John 5 is there they just need a singer,a bassist and a drummer and they could be a good band.
😂😂😂
5 isn't good and crew sucks now. 5 is not interesting at all. No unique tone, he just picks without any soul
dry as burnt toast.
Right .
@@noelliastarr5853 I saw him with his own band and they are pretty good. Despite what you may think of John, He is way too good for the fakers of Crue.
@@spuds6423 I agree he is better than the other three but he doesn't do it for me. I think it's lack of a unique tone. He def has chops but I don't feel anything when he plays. So many other guitarist to spend time listening to.
I will say that regardless of my or anyone else's feelings toward Vince, the passing of his little daughter was an unimaginable tragedy. I'll always extend my compassion for that, no parent should ever have to bury their child. Having to watch your small child dying from stomach cancer in front of you is something I can even fathom the agony of.
Vince definitely should have faced further justice over both Razzle and the girl in the other car who was paralysed for life and still lives with a neurological handicap from brain trauma to this day. But he still has my empathy for the loss of Skylar
Dude you should totally do a live stream tomorrow man! I’ll be there!
Still to this day old friend still ask me who’s better Hanoi or Crue.😂 for old times sake I show them My Hanoi Rocks tattoo.😎
And?
Hanoi Rocks total album sales. 1 million
Mötley Crüe total album sales. 100 million
Those two bands aren't even in the same league. Mötley Crüe are legendary.
I agree,Hanoi for sure
@@michaelharrington75 Sales ≠ quality
@@Assimandeli I agree, and I like Hanio Rocks, but Mötley Crüe had some quality albums back in the 80's. Hanio Rocks should have been more popular than they were.
Lippi Synxx 🤘
I agree and no matter what the few peiple have commented in this blog says. I think its awesome we are getting the a GREAT MUSIC of the 80's now when there is bothing worth listening too!!!!
Buncha old men hacking this shit out of it these days..back tracks and sound awful live... amazing they sell any tickets...
The 'tragic' history of an insufferable band's own idiotic decisions.
I just listen to the music.
You can keep all the inside baseball.

The problem with Motley Crue, was Motley Crue!
The tragedy was constantly seeing 10 second snippets of this train wreck as l was switching channels back in the MTV days.
Nikki Sixx & Sid Vicious are the worst & talentless bassists in the history of rock music.
Motley crue as a whole are talentless
Poor Sid... what an insult...😂
Why sid vicious?
Sid made great music.

Mick Mars is good.
