NIKKI SIXX: MICK MARS's Attorneys Saying MÖTLEY CRÜE Doesn't Play Live Is 'Literally One Of The Funniest Things'

In a new interview with Jen Thomas, the entertainment writer at U.K.'s Metro, MÖTLEY CRÜE bassist Nikki Sixx was asked to name the funniest thing he has read about the band over the years. "I mean, the silliest thing I've ever read about ourselves was from Mick Mars's attorneys," he said, referencing the recent lawsuit filed against CRÜE by the band's founding guitarist. "I'm just really sad at what's happened... They put out that the band doesn't play live. We're, like, who is playing the bass then? It's literally one of the funniest things.

"Imagine being in a rock'n'roll band for 42 years and some guy in a suit puts out that the band doesn't play," Nikki continued. "The silliest thing is, because of the way a lot of media is these days, they don't cross-check. They just run with headlines and we call it clickbait. I mean, that's about as silly as it gets."

When Mars announced his retirement from touring with MÖTLEY CRÜE last October as a result of worsening health issues, he maintained that he would remain a member of the band, with John 5 taking his place on the road. However, in his lawsuit, which was filed on April 6 in Los Angeles County's Superior Court, the 71-year-old musician said that, after his announcement, the rest of CRÜE tried to remove him as a significant stakeholder in the group's corporation and business holdings via a shareholders' meeting. In his lawsuit, Mars also alleged that he was the only bandmember to play 100 percent live on their most recent tour, claiming Sixx "did not play a single note on bass during the entire U.S. tour."

In response to Mars's lawsuit, CRÜE's manager of 29 years, Allen Kovac, told Variety that Mars is coming out with a list of allegations "to gain leverage in a smear campaign on MÖTLEY. He's attacked the band, and he's done it in a slanderous way, with false accusations and misrepresenting the facts to the fans. Mick is not the victim. The victims are MÖTLEY CRÜE and the brand, which Mick is so prideful of." But, he added, "What's upsetting to me is not Mick, but his representatives, who have guided Mick to say and do harmful things to the brand he cares about so much, MÖTLEY CRÜE. He has a degenerative disease and people are taking advantage of him. It's called elder abuse."

Kovac continued: "Mick's representatives have no idea what they've created, but I've stopped the band from speaking about this, so they're not gonna turn the fans against Mick. But I am going to make sure that people understand that Mick hasn't been treated badly. In fact, he was treated better than anyone else in the band, and they carried him and they saved his life."

Mars suffers from Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS),a chronic and inflammatory form of arthritis that mainly affects the spine and pelvis. After years of performing through the pain, he informed the other members of MÖTLEY CRÜE last summer that he could no longer tour with them but would still be open to recording new music or performing at residencies that did not require much travel.

Regarding Mick's claim that he was the only CRÜE member to play 100 percent live on their most recent tour, Kovac told Variety: "Everything is live with Nikki's bass playing and Tommy's drum playing. When they've used loops, they're still playing. There are augmented vocals, which were (recorded) in the studio and are backgrounds behind the two ladies who are singing and (other background vocals by) John 5 and Nikki Sixx, and before that Mick and Nikki." He described the pre-recorded vocal layering as where "you multi-track and you do gang vocals with, like, 20 people, just like all the other bands do with background vocals. They've got background vocals in the mix. That's the truth.

"But Nikki played his bass and always has," Kovac continued. "Vince was singing better than he was before (on the latest tour). That was in reviews. Now, John 5 is playing like who John 5 is. I've heard John 5 perform and I heard Mick perform. Both are great guitar players. Unfortunately, Mick is not the same. He hasn't been the same for a long time. Which was in reviews! You see that the professionals knew. DEF LEPPARD (which alternated headlining spots on tour) knew. And (Mars) caused a train wreck up there, because he would play the wrong songs and the wrong parts, even with the guide tracks. When he played the wrong song, it wasn't Nikki Sixx that had a tape; it was the soundman bringing it into the mix so the audience could hear a song, even though the guitar player was playing a different song." He says audiences "would hear it at first, but (sound engineers) would fix it so that we could keep the song going. I heard it. I'd go to the soundboard."

I had a chat with Nikki Sixx Mötley Crüe ahead of their UK shows for today’s Metro. Talking about gratitude, getting back in the studio, up-and-coming bands he loves and why Motley shows will ‘pummel’ you🤘🏻

"А кто тогда играет на басу?"
Дурочка из себя строит. При чем пытается хитрить на всякий пожарный, у него спрашивают про фанеру, а он перевирает смысл вопроса как буд-то у него спросили кто за него играет на басу. Он же сам и играет, но только на фанере, заранее записанной. На некоторых видосах явно была игра на басу, когда он не прикасался к струнам. Хотя его сложно винить - кому не пофиг предзаписан бас, или в реальном времени сыгран, всё равно всё под клик, кто вообще в общем миксе на концерте отличит живой бас от такого же баса, но записанного раньше)

BasterBaster, "А кто тогда играет на басу?"
да, сразу подумал про это и обратил внимание, отмазки блядь как у охуевшего продавца на базаре, быдлацкие и нелепые)))) что лишний раз еще раз доказывает - то, что у кого-то дохуя денег, ничего не говорит о его уме или интеллекте.
