Ya know out of all the members of the band Nikki Sixx seems like the most genuine. He partied too, more then took his licks, well almost died for it. But seemingly it appears he grew as a human being from all his experiences. Despite all the excess he channeled it into something positive and constructive. This had to have been very difficult considering how his early family life was. Wouldn't mind watching a long form interview with him.

I praise you Nikki for actually working to help people with opioid addiction. I personally struggled for 9 years with a pain pill addiction after a bad car accident. I was way over prescribed both pain pills and Xanax then one day the Dr. just cut me off cold turkey and i had to turn to the street because at that point I was seriously addicted. I have over 8 years totally clean now and would love to help people who are struggling.

I don't think people should compare The Dirt to the Queen film. As a band, Queen were fairly polished and so was the film ($50 million budget) whereas Motley were always a little rough around the edges so I'd like to see the film be the same.

I have so much to say here, but I will keep it brief. I love Nikki Sixx, he is so awesome for keeping himself real and his experiences accessible to everyone. Not only that, what he said about Queen's movie Bohemian Rhapsody doing so well and then his movie coming out, I thought the same thing. I have so much respect for this band. That all four members are still alive is a miracle! I think Vince really got the shit end of the stick. I feel for him. I came of age right around Girls Girls Girls. I was like 12 years old listening to Tiffany and Debbie Gibson. The Girls Girls Girls album was given to me for 13th bday and I was absolutely terrified of this band after listening to it. Haha I appreciated them more as I progressed into my teenage years, and even more now as a 42 year old fan. I wish this interview was this was more of a Nikki interview.

Word of mouth, and 6-10pm on the radio at night when the dj would play the new songs people would request, (more like beg him) to play. That's how I first heard of you.
