The Victims of Motley Crue's Nikki Sixx

[@supadupachupacabra69]

I took a girl to a motley Crue show when we were 16 in the mid 80's over in Germany. We went to the front row on the left side where Nikki was. The girl kept getting crushed against the rails in front of the stage and began to cry. I asked her what I could do and if she wanted to move back. She said she needed some water. So between songs I yelled to Nikki she needed water. Nikki holds up his finger and said he would be right back. He went backstage and got a cup of water. He walked up to us and I thought wow he is really cool. But then he drank it in front of her and threw the cup at us. Then I thought what a dickbag. True story.

I'm a recovering heroin addict, clean 18 yrs. now. The fact that Sixx didn't reach out to help John Corabi's son with his opioid addiction makes me want to puke. SIXX should be THE MOST GRATEFUL person on earth. He not only survived, but is rich, was born in a first world country, and has lived MUCH longer than he deserves... any addict that has been fortunate enough to have made it through alive OWES his fellow man. NO ADDICT, has ever quite on their own. That's the power of opioids/heroin. Every single one of us clean addicts have received help in some form or another from another human. If we hadn't, the VAST majority of us wouldn't have made it and would be dead, ... no question, ... including myself.

Besides that, Simmons doesn't give even the slightest of a fuck about trying to make truly good music. Kiss is ac/dc with extra steps. Lars is at least a good composer who helped make Metallica's biggest hit more accessible and overall better. On top of that Lars is way better at learning songs. Granted some of those songs are ones that he wrote, but still. There is an infamous vid of gene Simmons trying and failing to learn a bass line. Also, Lars has a fuckin filter when speaking. Gene is having to apologize for something every other week or so. I should also mention Lars has actually improved after 2020 when he had nothing to do but practice drums and now he's at his best since the 90s. Meanwhile kiss is like the ric flair of music, a million goodbye shows.

[@metalmike570]

The factor that is different is that Mick Mars age versus Michael Anthony. Mike was far from old when he left Van halen in the 90's. Mick couldn't really do the tour the Crue was considering when they fired Mick, because it was Mick's health in the end. Like I said Michael Anthony was strong as a bull especially like 28 years ago, and after that for all the VH reunions without Mike. Plus Edward wanted Wolf to play bass, they would have great memories.

Met him also. Very cool with us. Vince was not. I think all of us could be ridiculous in our youth. We change. Also, no one’s personality is black or white, good or bad. We are all a mix of both at times in our lives.

[@kattilathehunfreedomfighter]

In October 2013, I had the strangest experience. My BF at the time, who looked very much like WWE wrestler Undertaker, and I stopped to sit outdoors to have a coffee in ritzy Calabasas, CA. The only other person in the outdoor seating area was Nikki Sixx sitting by himself. He looked over and nodded at us as to say hello politely. We were both in awe as we sat 6 feet away from him. We kinda felt giddy while we whispered to each other that we couldn't believe we were sitting a few feet away from him, but we didn't want to come across that way so we both played it cool. We sat and listened to Sixx for over an hour as he made multiple phone calls, to and about his then-fiancee Courtney. We didn't want to interfere so we just sat there listening. Sixx was on his cell talking about his kids' soccer games, and it was clear he was talking to a soccer mom who was working with him to arrange plans for their kids' upcoming soccer tournament. He was literally on the phone planning who was going to pick up their kids and transport them in whose minivan, etc. He was being a total soccer dad. After about an hour, a typical minivan-driving soccer mom pulled up and walked up to him, and they began to make those arrangements, i.e. who is going to drive the kids, who's going to pick them up, etc. It was SO surreal. This guy that I'd "idolized" since I was 16 was now a boring, everyday soccer dad. In a way it was cool to see how "normal" he seemed but it kinda ruined the image I'd had all those decades. He still looked like a hard rocker with the hair, clothes, heavy jewelry, tattoos, etc. I remember thinking how good his skin looked despite all those years of hard partying and drugs. But it was super surreal. I'll never forget that. Who knew Nikki Sixx would become a soccer dad living in a posh neighborhood. Weird.

[@medievalwolfgrrl]

Well as we age, we all become “boring” and it’s commendable that he has been a real dad to his kids. If he had stayed the Nikki Sixx we grew up with he would definitely have died for good. He evolved. Nothing wrong with that.

[@kattilathehunfreedomfighter]

@@medievalwolfgrrl I agree. I never said that there was anything wrong with that. Reread my comment. It was infused with my marveling at what he had become compared to what he used to be. My comment was simply me stating how strange and surreal it was to witness that first hand.

@@crimsondeath7468 Sixx did his part in the band. He gets compared to Gene Simmons a lot I saw some in other comments. They are both alpha males, Like 6'3" handsome, at the time young, and with bass that is very important. I was a bassist in the 80's but closer to Flea in appearance but loving the metal stuff. I was in a band and was on stage at 18, we did at least 5 Motley Crue songs and some others. Already playing bars at 20. I could play all the Crue songs, it wasn't that tough, but you have to have that image. So I'd say Nikki Sixx was meant to be in this role. But they are liking the money and felt Mick can't do these large tours, and they've been touring more than a year since he left so. And to be fair look at KISS, they changed members quite a bit. Gene wastes no time if a guitarist has issues he would get them replaced. Gene must is playing shows, looks like he started a personal band project because, a lot us retire and if we don't stay active we will not last long.
