How do we know this is actually the band answering questions and not your PR guys?

Just had to let you know, my cousin walked down the aisle at her wedding to Home Sweet Home. The organist never showed and that's all anyone knew how to play on piano! Also, holy shit I love you guys!

I just wanted to say thank you from 14-year old me for the video for Girls, Girls, Girls. I must have killed hundreds of millions of hand babies while watching that video. I would sit, sweatpants at my ankles, lotion at my side, MuchMusic on the TV. Maybe if I was lucky I'd get a glimpse of Erica Ehm. But if I was REALLY lucky, that video came on. It was like winning the pubescent lottery. That would be the highlight of my week. With good reason. Thank you. Thank you so very much. You shaped my formative years in a very real way. Thank you.
MotleyCrueOfficial112 karma
Hope you used some lotion buddy...should've been making a baby batter cake.

One of the in-stores we did...there was a group of girls that were so smart, they figured out how to take the distributor cap off of our van so that we couldn't go anywhere. They wanted some time, they got it.

I just wanted to say thank you to Nikki Sixx for your books and forming Sixx a.m. Because of your courage and inspiring stories you have encouraged me and assisted in my one and a half year sobriety from heroin. To get an acknowledgement from you would be a dream come true! ♥

What's the story behind the umlauts? And hey, you didn't put them in your title! Mötley Crüe!
MotleyCrueOfficial197 karma
Tommy: Be quiet. Mick: The 14 inch brautwurst I saw a girl swallow without breaking it.
MotleyCrueOfficial176 karma
Mick: You guys were probably cooking up shit in the ashtray in the other room.
mmofan47 karma
I just wanted to say thank you. You guys were a big part of my teen years, and if it weren't for you I wouldn't have started playing guitar, gotten into music, met the people that I had, and become a composer.
All I wanted to be when I was 15 was Motley Crue.

Congrats on the second residency @The Joint!! Will be in Vegas in October to get a piece done at Vince Neil Ink. Are there any tattoos that you got while out on the road that you absolutely hate?
Thehealeroftri46 karma
What's your favorite city to play in and why?
What's your least favorite city to play in and why?
MotleyCrueOfficial63 karma
That's probably the hardest question we ever get because each city has it's own personality. As for our least favorite, we haven't played it yet.
cravyvv43 karma
Hey Guys, Is it true that The Dirt is/was going to be made into a movie....holy shit! Cheers.
pizzapringles36 karma
I'm a huge fan! I saw you guys in LA with KISS and I was so excited when you guys came out! That was one of the best concerts I've been too! Can you guys do a shout out to my mom? She's a huge fan too! :)
Deacon777734 karma
For Nikki! I'm a big Thunderbird fan, what are the differences between them and your new Schecter models? You, Mick, Tommy, and Vince are my heroes, thank you for everything you've done!
MotleyCrueOfficial57 karma
I have loved the Thunderbird since I was a kid and they've had challenges sonically. It's been tough to get them up to par sound wise. With Schechter I wanted to make a bass that was up to the sound I wanted. Anytime one band member's instrument sounds better, the band sounds better.

How has the Los Angeles night life scene and music scene changed from the 80's till now?
ajsndjsandj26 karma
What's the craziest thing that ever happened on tour, that hasn't been told 100 times by now?
MotleyCrueOfficial91 karma
Nikki and Tommy cooking freebase with used ashtrays somewhere in Canada...
icxcnika24 karma
What is your opinion on the sexualization/objectification of women in modern society?
MotleyCrueOfficial31 karma
Nikki: I've been digging some of the early stuff...Livewire. Mick: Primal Scream Tommy: I agree.
screwthebankiworkfor16 karma
If you were to secretly perform as a Motley Crüe cover band, what would your name be?
Dar_Dan_Ira_N16 karma
How did you like the first Intimate Evening in Hell here ? I loved it but like to hear how you liked it ? In your words...it was... ? Looking forward ALL the other Intimate Evenings cause I'll be here... =)
MotleyCrueOfficial33 karma
Nikki: I had a blast. Anytime there's that much volume and fire, I'm happy. Looking at Tommy's fear of fireballs was pretty crazy. This was the first time I've seen a little bit of "Oh SHIT!" in his eyes.
ragxdoll12 karma
not a question but a thank you. My boyfriend is a major Motley Crue fan for years, on our first year anniversary I took him to see you guys and we had one of our best date. 8 years later we are still rocking to the crue on every roadtrip, a tradition for us. :)
MotleyCrueOfficial49 karma
Nikki: I regret getting penicillin shots and drinking whiskey right afterward. It never worked.
MotleyCrueOfficial32 karma
Nikki: You know what's more interesting than this question? There's a meth lab out of the back of van behind the hotel.
1Kinsley10 karma
I have to say that my favorite song performed live is Primal Scream. That song is so raw. I Love it!!
LegendaryPooper5 karma
I know you guys have seen a lot over the years. My question is: What is the craziest/weirdest/most awesome event that you can remember? Our virgin ears can handle it.
MotleyCrueOfficial21 karma
Nikki: Last week. Mick: The first million that someone ripped off...that's when I knew.
acScience266 karma
Would you mind if I started an all Jewish Mötley Crüe cover band called Mötley Jëw?
