Love motley crue. I had Tommy in my black London cab years ago. He was the funniest guy. He gave me a backstage pass for a show in the states that he had done before. I took him back to his hotel and he said wait hear and went up to his room to get it and gave it to me. I've still got it
I watched this entire interview and all I have to say is, "How can you not love Tommy?!" He's so charismatic and funny, and his smile is infectious. His personality is extremely charming and lovable. I recommend the hilarious miniseries he starred in called Tommy Lee Goes to College! You'll smile, and you won't regret it. Tommy is the best! ♡♡♡
I met Tommy once here in Monterrey, México before a show at the hotel they were staying at and he was the coolest guy, i have a picture with him and my wife. He signed my Crue stuff books , récords, everything.
My “date” had back stage passes to one of their shows (media pass) during the time Vince was sober. He left the venue right after the show. Tommy and Mick were 💯 unapproachable. They were covered in sweat and looked angry, holding up a wall. Nikki took the time to speak to us and sign a photo for me. I won’t forget his kindness and authenticity.
I remember there being a longer version of this on the CBS show he had and Mick actually did say like one thing. I'm pretty sure Mick was pissed around this time anyway because he didn't want Vince back in the band and he didn't like the Generation Swine album
They’d just gotten back together with Vince after a decade of fighting and shit was DELICATE. Howard was a dick for this.. he was literally fucking with their livelihoods, what fed their families. Uncool. There was plenty of other stuff to talk about like the hard party’s and pranks they pulled. Nope.. this guy asks the lead singer who just came back if he banged the drummers current wife before him. Wow.
Imagine having to read about how fat you are and shitty your voice was but you had to tour to make any money still. But don’t feel sorry for him. He lived the life of ten men in the 80s like Robin from RATT said.
Oh yeah, it's well known Vince did her back then. At least people knew they were seen together and Vince wouldn't waste time with a hot blonde unless she's throwing her little legs open. Pamela was such cheese back then... She was like on a mission to F EVERY 80s rocker and actor. And she surely did. Her list is even longer than Tommy's. Ha! Even the Poison guy had his run with her. If you were on the Sunset Strip in a successful band... You could have Pamela. She was a groupie... Except she was so hot she carved a little career for herself. Good for her. She sure earned her meager career. Although she was really one of the first celebrities to become famous for being famous and being such a legendary star-fucker.
I just watched the 2005 interview. It's obvious here that Vince didn't want to upset Tommy by saying anything in his presence. According to "The Dirt" (the book version), the whole band knew the story, though according to Tommy, Pamela claims she never bonked Vince.
@@Dizzy1980 Yea. She's a liar if she denies doing Vince. It's so clear she's lying it's almost sad she'd pretend it didn't happen. At least Bobbi Brown, another legendary groupie and super hot blonde, at least she embraces her slutness. Anyway, Pam did so many rockers back then, she might not even remember all the guys. But landing the Motley Crue lead singer... for a cheesy groupie... Remember she wasn't 'Pamela Anderson' back then. She was just that easy blonde hottie that follows and seeks out every rocker like a hungry alley cat. But you can bet she remembers every pump with Vince. She's a liar if she denies Vince! She remembers but turned bitter when Vince probably said... OK... Hit the road now, dummy.
It seems like a lot of big bands like Motley, Metallica, U2 etc. were struggling in the late 90s with their music when grunge hit the mainstream, rough time
My first Crue concert was in 1990 on the Feelgood tour. 2nd Crue concert was in 97 on the Gen Swine tour. Both were amazing but the Swine show was better IMHO.
I grew up on the Crew. Wish I would have been able to make it to a concert before their last performance New years eve 2017. Nikki is a genius and Mick is the brains, Vince has a voice that just pulls you in, Tommy has a beat that's so powerful he can change the meaning of a song just like lyrics. I absolutely LOVE them and Nikki ❤️ would die to meet them😭
@@ylemscalamity You are extremely lucky to have been able to have seen them not only once, but twice!!! I regret sooo much not making a better effort to have seen the bands I love sooo much. 💔 Truly truly regret it ! 😭😭😭
@@Bibiddy-Bobiddy-Boo yeah they happen to come to my local amphitheater and I went twice but they actually came threw my town like 5 or 6 times that I remember and I’m 29 now so it’s not like I’m very old I just happen to live close and grew up listened to classic rock
When Vince says his chest tattoo hurt he isn't lying in the least. I have my entire chest blasted. As well as every millimeter of my collarbone left to right inked. If I knew how it was going to feel before hand. I'd never would have done it!
Nikki and Tommy in their peak days of looking so Hottttt! I think Vince later in interviews admits to being with Pam before she got together with Tommy. Bret Michaels was supposedly her 1st Rockstar though??
I think Vince (prior to rejoining Motley) had said that he had Pam first - presumably at the same point in time as the Can't Have Your Cake video was made.....but my memory is horrible! LOL.......
Nobody's mentioning that both, Vince and Pam have that barb wire tattoo on their upper arm. Vince had it first and Pam got it for the movie Barb Wire but still weird. You could think they were the couple, not Tommy and Pam.
The GNR record The Spaghetti Incident came about from that contest between Nikki and Tommy. One of the girls blew chunks because of the smell from Nikki and obviously she had eaten Spaghetti
I know at this point they were trying hard to fit into the alternative label to compete, but it just doesn't work. Whoever produced it or wrote it surely used Joy Division as a way to do it. That too didn't work, but thankfully they realized it's wise to just stick to what they do best. There's no way they enjoyed playing that. You have to have interesting, introspective lyrics to go with that sound, or it's just filler.
Wow! Tommy is hot! The best part is he’s not a huge a- hole and self-absorbed, his teeth were his own making his jaw line smaller. He was a gorgeous man.
There was a genuine excitement in the weeks and months leading up to Generation Swine. Fans truly believed it was going to be an amazing comeback. Hearing the remake of Shout at the Devil on the AMA's was pretty cool. Going at midnight to pick up the album on release day at Tower Records was a trip...that is until we put it on in the car. The three guys I went with felt like we had been robbed of our favorite band when we heard it. What a let down. I remember looking at them and saying, "Get Corabi Back!!!!"
Howard is trying way too hard to look cool in front of these guys. Hes either jealous of them or admires them and doesn’t wana show it. Either way Motley Crue fuckin rocks 🤟🏽🤟🏽
Jealous?????? The dude is probably worth more than each of these dudes and contrary to what Howard may have some of you believe, this guy can get any woman he wants and he knows it... I don't understand where you would get jealous brotha?
I’d hate to know who that girl was!! That’s fkn sickening!! I literally almost threw up hearing that. Can you imagine how damn nasty that had to of been? Ewwwwww !
Her niece actually posted something about her throwing up spaghetti on Nikki’s d*** and how she never ate any pasta again. I cry laughed when reading the story
They really missed an opportunity in 1997 with their comeback. Nikki and Tommy had a complete miscalculation with Generation Swine. Attn from Regis, Stern, the AMAs - This was their last chance to be relevant and influence modern culture again (rather than just nostalgia). A shame, I wish they had succeeded. Maybe the late ‘90s would’ve been a little less lousy as far as music goes.
I love the Crue, but only from 82-91. Anything after that has been average. If they'd died in a plane crash after Dr Feelgood they'd be heralded like the Sex Pistols or The Who.
What a horrible song. During that period they should have stuck to doing Motley, instead of trying to compete with the pathetic grunge sound and style.
Vince had a cool voice in the 80s but he lost it with time, Not sure how old he was here but it was at least 20 years of singing it's a lot it won't be the same
@@Keezie27 he was a security guard at a venue they were playing during their generation swine tour in 1997. The video before RU-vid snuffed it out was entitled Nikki Sixx goes ape shitt. You may or may not be able to still find it I don't know
@@jasonmorgan5058 Yeah I just searched for it and it seems the video isn't there anymore. Too bad. I wanted to see it. I guess I shouldn't be too surprised that a hair metal singer would be racist but it's still unfortunate.
good thing tommy got the luck when it came to dongs because he sure as heck aint known for his drumming skills, lol. I never cared for motley and this just confirms why. Just dont care for their sound at all.
Why did motley ever let themselves go with that stupid 90s grunge. They would have kicked ass still in the 90s with their heavy metal… This sucked honestly
Nikki Sixx is a very good looking & charming man. But what I like most is that he has depth and soul. He’s been through a lot & has deep insight on existence.
God I was born in the wrong place and wrong time I was born in 89 but I am glad cause if I would have ran across tommy or Nikki good lord I would have been a groupie for sure..😅 jk....heck I still would even though they are old enough to be my daddy I'd call both of them daddy for sure 😂get at me tommy or Nikki or hell both of you call me 😂❤😂❤😂❤love this band they are legends ❤❤❤❤
As escort back in Baltimore I met Viggy which is Tommy Lee’s assistant. He was full of tattoos and piercings. Such a cool, generou$ and respectful guy. He said Tommy Lee is one of the best, sweetest people out there. He paid for all of his cancer treatment and recovery, respect 🙇🏻♀️
