That sounds awful. Are they that hard up for money already?

Straight Outta Compton arrived before #TimesUp, but it will be interesting to see how this fares in that environment. Will they get a musician / rock n roll pass?

Ramsay Bolton as Mick Mars.... now that's interesting. I need to read this book as I've heard good things.

The book is hilarious and about as un pc as you can get. It's about 16 years old and I wish they would update it now that Motley Crue have called it quits.

you can read the first few pages on Amazon. Just click on the look inside link

Dirt was great but Heroin Diaries was better, IMO.
Look forward to this, should be pretty entertaining.

Tough to think of a cornier band in history than Motley Crue. Perhaps Poison.

Nah. Motley Crüe did the real sleaze. There’s dozens of MC acolyte bands that brought the cringe.

The Curious Case of the Nikki Sixx Impostor
The Bizarre Life & Sad Death Of Nikki Sixx’s Doppelganger


This by itself should be a movie

mostly because it dragged on so for long that it actually cost the band nearly 1 mill in lawyer fees

 

[Raging Bull]

I've read a ton of rock and roll biographies where it seems like the level of drugging, sex, and drinking are exaggerated to the umpteenth. Motley Crue is one of the rare ones where I think it was actually worse than what was written about.

Watching it right now. Damn, forgot Vince Neil killed Razzle. As a Finn, I'm supposed to hate him.

 

[chicagoskycam]

I enjoyed it but there was so much left out, they probably could have done a season. Also, a bigger budget with more of the music included would have been good.

Thought Razzle was from England

But Hanoi Rocks were Finnish. That more or less ended the band even though they were apparently on the verge of breaking up despite being also on the verge of a major breakthrough in the US.

74, yeah.. I basically liked the movie too. But my feeling on it's length is the opposite. I think it would've been better if they had edited out about 10 (repetitive) minutes of Sixx's shooting up and/or the scenes of hotel rooms getting tossed, Crue members pant-less, etc. I get it, they partied (& it does need some depiction), but for me it made the movie unnecessarily longer.. when the direct storyline was pretty short.
I thought casting was good. Tommy Lee's mannerisms & energy were well replicated. And Vince's depiction was good; actor reminded me of Sean Penn's Spicoli..

Years ago I remember Vince Neil on the reality show: Surreal Life. He talked about the death of his daughter.. it was really heavy.
It was brief in the movie, but I think the actor captured Neil's suffering/loss..
