Yes, I hope they make it like in the MCU/DCEU where everything and everyone is connected. After the Dirt with Motley, Metallica or Guns N' Roses should be next and in the same universe as with The Dirt movie... something like that.
@@skummtoons6686 it was good, I enjoyed it. Knew most of the stuff from watching documentaries and also being around then, lol. But I thought the movie was good
I don’t like how this documentary is portraying Nikki’s mom as such an angel, and Nikki as rebellious teenager. His mom was a neglectful, abusive mother. Nikki built his career all by himself, with the help of his 3 brothers in the Crue. That’s it
you write this to piss off i went to see all the shows they did in canada and i went backstage and mick played guitar and your post is completely stupid and mean i saw it and heard you don you're not a fan you just wanna put mick down you're an asshole and you piss me off
Dean Fox, I couldn't agree more. I believe Nikki's playing has always been fake onstage. He never overdosed on heroin and no band would get rid of a singer from Mott the Hoople and keep Frank Ferrano.
Actually lucky they had Nikki. Nikki made this happen. The dude couldnt even play music, but damnit, he was gonna be a famous rock star. Nikki should teach a college course of how to make it in the business. I reminded of the verse in primal screen that says it all. "IF YOU WANNA LIVE LIFE BY YOUR OWN TERMS, YOU GOTTA BE WILLING TO CRASH AND BURN." He just simply refused to be denied.
I was a Marine and 18 on leave and went on heavy metal day, a Sunday. I knew it was going to be crazy when my friend and I saw a swami guy sitting on the ground by a fence with a cardboard sign saying "weed 4 sale". What a crazy time that was
I'm a 54 year old black dude.... Raised up on R&B, and Rap. The first time I heard of the Crue was from a friend in 10fh grade. He had his biology book cover made of Crue! I was like, " look at them wild ass b****""!" He told me that they were dudes and Awesome! When I graduated I moved in with my childhood friend (R.I.P) Todd. He had posters if them everywhere on his walls. I started reading up on them, and there life style was like ours. All party and no food. Cheese and and bacon soda in the fridge. I joined the Army and did my time, but the Crue kept rockin'! I finally went to the Dr. Feel Good concert with my Temple, Tx heads in Austin, Tx,, and that was off the charts!!! "Warrant" opened up, followed up by "Judas Priest"😎💯😆😱, And then MOTLEY CRUE!!! TOO MUCH EXCITEMENT IN ONE NIGHT! FEMALES EVERYWHERE!!!
Wow. Crue gets a lot of hate, judging by the comments. They wrote basic tunes with catchy choruses and wore makeup. So what? Home sweet home, too young to fall in love. I liked their hits.
I remember the first time I heard Shout at the Devil, I was addicted to these guys! I had no money so I would borrow the cassette tape from a friend, buy a cheap blank, then play the cassette on a player and record it on another. I remember having to tell my kid brother to keep quiet while I recorded! LOL!
Shout at the Devil was what got me into Mötley. Parents didn't approve of an 8yr. old listening to em, but we just went over to a buddy's house. His older brother was a huge fan. Eventually leading to them giving up & leaving the Metal music thing alone.
Mötley Crüe are not HS I don't want to be mean but if you find that Mötley Crüe is HS you must be HS they are still popular if you don't want to know anything about Mötley Crüe stop writing they are HS listen your music and let others listen to Mötley Crüe Apple Betty

Metallica and Megadeth had AND STILL HAS 1000 times the talent than these middle school boy band freaks. Mick Mars belonged in a much better band. He was the only talent.
I saw the Crue at the Beacon Theater in NYC with my friend Julie and they were actually opening for Quiet Riot. When QR took the stage, everyone in that theater booed them right off the stage, chanting M O T L E Y...M O T L E Y...until they came back OUT!! While I was writing this comment, they mentioned QR and I'm surprised they didn't talk about that night at the Beacon!! I will never forget it for as long as I live!!

Between the dirt and this documentary I see Tommy Lee in a new light. I always viewed him as a loud mouth, inconsiderate D Bag. But at heart he seems like a sweet person
Mick Mars didn't have any trouble at the UsFest. He was a pro and carried these guys on his back. A great guitarist. Most of the crowd can't hear squat anyway.
Whats 3 people with ”talent” if they are not nearly the same driven as nikki. Respect for nikki. He had visions and made them come true by hard work and a genius brain.
I remember being in the 8th grade while going to Catholic school, coming home with a buddy, smoking weed, and jamming out to Shout at the Devil..............we called it "church".
@@michellerosejacksoncomedy ha, some say we have our license to "party". The Priests at the rectory had the Budweiser beer truck make a stop every other week. All 4 pastors were Irish after all.
I remember when I first saw this band, at a Monster of Rock concert in Stuttgart Germany and was like who is this band all dress up in make up and tights, my buddies and I were like all pump up for AC/DC, Van Halen, Ozzy, and Ronnie James Dio so when Motley Crue came out in the beginning of this fest, they Kick it up a notch thats for sure considering the line up, Well I suppose I became a Fan of The Crue from then on ...... This was 1984 and what great memories i have from that day for sure... all I can say is from watching this video is that when your determined to live out a dream you keep plugging along until all the right pieces fall on place and the rest is history........
Haha I heard that whenever they played Germany back then, the crowd would chant their name with the “correct” pronunciation, due to the umlauts. True or False?

while I was never much of a fan of these guys, I have to give them credit, in the age of Wham, and Spandau Ballet, these guys kept rock&roll seedy and disreputable, and as a bonus, authority figures, really hated them!

Me too. It's kind of weird to think they were at their very beginning then, because even us up in the Bay Area knew who they were. We were more puzzled by the last-minute inclusion of Quiet Riot. The US Festival was almost certainly the most amazing event I will ever attend in my lifetime.
Yes they worked very hard to get where they are today it just shows hard work pays off know one thought that they would make it big and they showed everyone that said they won't go to the top and they did and still are making it good work love this band just love them from phx az rock on

Back in 1986 I was in a record store in Hartford, CT, I was standing next to Tommy and did'nt know it. I look to my right, "Who r you with?" "Motley Crue" --I helped him find the cassette he was looking for, "Thanks man!...I've been looking for this since we left LA!"
What a great video. I’ve liked the Crue since I first heard looks that kill, and I’ve never seen a detailed history of their childhood and early days like that. Awesome job.
I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A M-CRUE CHICK!!! I GREW UP ON MOTLEY CRUE!!! MOST OF MY WALLS BACK IN THE DAY WERE COVERED WITH PIN UP'S OF MOTLEY CRUE !! I WENT TO ABOUT 12 OF THEIR CONCERTS IN PHOENIX ARIZONA!! I HAD EVERY TAPE THEY CAME OUT WITH THEN CONVERTED TO CD'S , AND I STILL HAVE EVERY RECORD EVER PUT OUT!! I AM A LIFE TIME FAN!!

I went from a15year old kid with no friend listening to the gambler and my dad gave me a shout at the devil album I opened that fucker up and my life was changed forever thank you Motley Crue
a great time and a great era. all came together for the four of them..along with all the other metal bands we grew up with..i can only imagine what their lives were like back then, and man how id have loved to be one of them!
you mean Vince Neil is better than Vincent Wharton... Nikki Sixx is better than Frank Ferrana.... Mick Mars is better than Robert Deal.... and Tommy Lee is better than Thomas Bass
For the Motley Crue haters out there, the ones who criticize them (In their minds) for not being good musicians, watch this video and you’ll understand why fans, like me, never ever thought about them as being good musicians nor do we care. It’s about the look, the sound, the meaning behind the songs, the escape, the attitude. And it always will be. And you know what? They are good musicians. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
I was around 14 when these guys reunited (2004). I didn’t know NOTHING about them. Here I am sitting in the living room one channel was reprising US festival from '83. My mind was blown away, I couldn’t describe how I felt. I had chills all over and that is when I became their fan. Next day I bought their CD discography and until this day I never stopped listening to them.
Some may complain about how they left out the dangerous and stupid things they did and the addiction, but this is the story of the early days. I love this snapshot of the energy and promise of this period. They end this doc with the beginning of the craziness. And Mick stayed sane through it all.
Met Nikki Sixx at my first job at Big 5 in Southern California and took a selfie with him. Always trips me out to listen to Motley Crue and see him on videos
@@Iceis_Phoenix People would steal and edit/reconfigure/remaster it if they used it as their UA-cam photo or as any other social/media/app/website photo. It might be signed and very precious to them.
Tommy's younger sister is awesome. Great documentary. I never seen this one before. Awesome pictures and old footage. Nice work 👍👍After seeing this, how can you NOT like them. I'm glad for being a fan since SATD.
I always liked tommy lee because i’ve been skinny all my life like him and i used to be self conscious about it in high school. But as an adult, i got a lot chicks and realized women are into slim and lanky looking guys. So many women generally don’t like muscle meathead types which is hilarious to me because i always though that’s what they wanted
Yeah was real skinny like Leo DiCaprio skinny and in High School wore long sleeve shirts. Most girls don't care you start not paying attention that much.
Well all I know is my 80s life wouldn't of been complete without this band. I'm 52 today and I still love when a song comes on the vehicles radio. Good memories. My young adult life, my friend got to meet them backstage. They didn't ask me. She never came home for two days and the lies I had to tell her parents. Was crazy! Lol
As a 52yr old female I can totally relate. I actually think they were great and my school days wouldn't have been the same without them. Class of 1988 rocked!
@@asherrogers2687 Y'all are the damn best. I'm honored to have the kind of support that you show me, thank you. How are you doing it is nice meeting you here btw
I still remember going into a record store and buying the "Shout at the Devil" album when it first came out. When I first looked at it I was thinking "who are these chicks?" LMAO! Then, I ended up liking the album so much that I played it constantly. It would have been totally awesome to be in Hollywood hanging out on the Sunset Strip back then. I wish I hadn't lived so far North of there. I was in my room playing my guitar for like 8 to 10 hours a day back in the early '80s. Those were the ultimate days to be there in Hollywood and have a good chance of getting into a band and making it big. Dam...I missed out. :( I still like to make trips to Hollywood to go to the clubs and see bands there. There's still some of that magical feeling there left over from the good ol' days. At least the Whiskey, Roxy, Viper Room, Troubadour, and a few other clubs are still there. :)
@OZRIC1985 it is 6 years later and I'd like to know if those clubs are still there in March 2024? Your comment kind of made me laugh with you saying you wished you hadn't lived so far North of there because I wished/wish the same. Though you I'm guessing didn't live so far North of there that you couldn't get in a car and do a road trip if you could drive or had friends who could drive and had cars? My to far North from there was then, and still is now impossible even with a road trip, bus or train with a vast ocean separating me from those clubs in gloomy repressive UK where most people can't afford air fare or sea fare tickets further than Crete/Turkey, if lucky the Maldives for a week. I can't afford air fare tickets to anyway anymore with the cost of living having gone up so much. I once went to Florida as a young teenager and loved loved loved it, was devastated to have to return to dark ages backwards North/North West UK. I have though lived abroad when younger in Europe and a few Islands just off there before they became part of Europe and the day the UK joined Europe I jumped estatically with joy, my freedom pass doors wide open welcoming. And the day of Brexit and England leaving Europe insanely, well that was my coffin nailed and sealed. Money devalued, UK prices rocketed, certain products vanished from the shelves and those welcoming open doors within actual Europe now slammed in British faces. I truly feel trapped, held hostage, held prisoner, held under repressive oppressive dark aged poverty stricken backwards UKUSSR (made that word up, it is fitting) dictatorship unable to escape the crushing gestapo vice grip of the silencing how dare you even breathe UK!

I purchased it at the same store where i got my Leathure record. I still have that also!! Oh man, I was on cloud nine that day scoring stuff from the greatest metal band. I think LA had like 400 record stores then. I dont remember what store. I had to watch my copy to at the same time as this to make sure it was the same show i have. Lol.

Around 28:45 someone said that New Wave was the biggest thing in LA sometime around early 1981, in the other parts of the US most of the songs that were in the Top 40 were either love ballads, soft rock or post-disco tunes
motley crue was just one of the best rock band way back, bigger than life story of real rock band. Oh I really missed the 80's music, it's so nice to see those bands with different way of entertaining their fans!!!!

It's hard to see the BIRTH of all of those bands.... I can understand Ralph's passion considering he was there for it.
Metallica and Megadeth had AND STILL HAS 1000 times the talent than these middle school boy band freaks. Mick Mars belonged in a much better band. He was the only talent.
Vince's dad said that girls made Vince feel good..... boy, what an understatement!!! LOL
Came here after watching ‘the dirt’. I only have one song of theirs on my metal playlist. But never knew how they started out. Fucking awesome!
Even as a child Nikki Sixx has always been good looking
Amu Jane TV what the fuck
Well ya wouldn’t say that now
He’s beautiful
Amu Jane TV eh pedo?
He needed his looks, because he's a moron
I saw the Crue at the Beacon Theater in NYC with my friend Julie and they were actually opening for Quiet Riot. When QR took the stage, everyone in that theater booed them right off the stage, chanting M O T L E Y...M O T L E Y...until they came back OUT!! While I was writing this comment, they mentioned QR and I'm surprised they didn't talk about that night at the Beacon!! I will never forget it for as long as I live!! Determined and never letting go of Their DREAM low and behold.. MOTLEY CRUE!🤘🏻
Randy Rhodes wasn’t in QR at that time was he?
They’ll never be another band like the Crüe ....I’ll be rocken out to their music till the day I die......what a ride ....🤟🤟
Oh please LOL
I love Motley Crue and always will

Between the dirt and this documentary I see Tommy Lee in a new light.
I always viewed him as a loud mouth, inconsiderate D Bag.
But at heart he seems like a sweet person
Mick Mars didn't have any trouble at the UsFest. He was a pro and carried these guys on his back. A great guitarist. Most of the crowd can't hear squat anyway.
ditto
Whats 3 people with ”talent” if they are not nearly the same driven as nikki. Respect for nikki. He had visions and made them come true by hard work and a genius brain.
Love their story so much. Shout at the Devil is a masterpiece album. One of the best albums in the history of rock. You did good, boys. All 4 of you.
I took one look at that album in 83 and thought wow. The misfit weak in the head kids just found their new idols.
@@rwhitely2288 I wonder what those weak in the head kids would think about a grown man like yourself who plays with toy firetrucks?
❤
Carol Kaye played the bass lines. The thread of Nikki never really playing continues with the miming bass in 2023🤯
Yep!
I was born in 72. I grew up listening to motley crue. It was my favorite band.
I'm so glad I got to see Motley Crue on their final tour before they broke up
This is the best footage ever of the band.
I remember being in the 8th grade while going to Catholic school, coming home with a buddy, smoking weed, and jamming out to Shout at the Devil..............we called it "church".
I’m Catholic! 😂
@@michellerosejacksoncomedy ha, some say we have our license to "party". The Priests at the rectory had the Budweiser beer truck make a stop every other week. All 4 pastors were Irish after all.
@@10MinutestoRouletteFortune That’s really cool and true. ☘️🍻
I will love Mötley Crue forever.
Me too 🤘 next generation crue fan here
'Till the day I die.
Been listening to 'em since I was 7yrs. old. (1984-85)
YES!!! Now going to watch "the Dirt" This was THE BAND growing up. Motley Crue fan for life! Long live the Crue!!
I remember when I first saw this band, at a Monster of Rock concert in Stuttgart Germany and was like who is this band all dress up in make up and tights, my buddies and I were like all pump up for AC/DC, Van Halen, Ozzy, and Ronnie James Dio so when Motley Crue came out in the beginning of this fest, they Kick it up a notch thats for sure considering the line up, Well I suppose I became a Fan of The Crue from then on ...... This was 1984 and what great memories i have from that day for sure... all I can say is from watching this video is that when your determined to live out a dream you keep plugging along until all the right pieces fall on place and the rest is history........
Haha I heard that whenever they played Germany back then, the crowd would chant their name with the “correct” pronunciation, due to the umlauts.
True or False?
The last breed of its kind.
We'll never get another force as the Crue again.
. . and for the better.
Hail the children of the beast!

My favorite band since 1983!!!
Same!!! 🤘🤘

This is easily the best Motley Crue documentary I've seen. Very informative, great interviews with friends and family of the band.
Agree. The pictures were the best I've seen. The family participation was great. A nice perspective on their early, formative years.
Tommy’s sister is perhaps the most 80s woman ever 😂
Who’s all here because of The Dirt?
Me.
Yep me too, decent movie
That Mic Mars casting was great haha
reXBoxTV agreed.
Me lol
lol Tommy's sister sounds exactly like him.
Yes Athena is the female Tommy 😂😁 I like her on ex wives of rock
@@nightstar8073 I remember that show and all I could think of was..."Athena has a lot of Tommyisms".. lol
She also was a great drummer in a girl's band if j remember correctly
@@nancyenright9562 When Tommy left the Crue, they should have hired his sister lol
The 70s my favorite band was Queen.In the 80s it was Motley Crue.
good taste

while I was never much of a fan of these guys, I have to give them credit, in the age of Wham, and Spandau Ballet, these guys kept rock&roll seedy and disreputable, and as a bonus, authority figures, really hated them!
yes they did , shout at the devil song put me in a courtroom , just for playing it ! noise pollution , lol Ky life

I remember the US festival. They were horrible, but they had my attention during their whole set. These guys represent dreams and hard work.
Me too. It's kind of weird to think they were at their very beginning then, because even us up in the Bay Area knew who they were. We were more puzzled by the last-minute inclusion of Quiet Riot. The US Festival was almost certainly the most amazing event I will ever attend in my lifetime.
Yes they worked very hard to get where they are today it just shows hard work pays off know one thought that they would make it big and they showed everyone that said they won't go to the top and they did and still are making it good work love this band just love them from phx az rock on
HAHAHAHAHAA

Back in 1986 I was in a record store in Hartford, CT, I was standing next to Tommy and did'nt know it. I look to my right, "Who r you with?" "Motley Crue" --I helped him find the cassette he was looking for, "Thanks man!...I've been looking for this since we left LA!"
What a great video. I’ve liked the Crue since I first heard looks that kill, and I’ve never seen a detailed history of their childhood and early days like that. Awesome job.
13:28 Tommy dancing ballet is the funniest thing ever 😂
Thanks for posting this.
I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A M-CRUE CHICK!!! I GREW UP ON MOTLEY CRUE!!! MOST OF MY WALLS BACK IN THE DAY WERE COVERED WITH PIN UP'S OF MOTLEY CRUE !!

Thanks for posting the video. Really cool learning the boys took tap lessons... :-)
I went from a15year old kid with no friend listening to the gambler and my dad gave me a shout at the devil album I opened that fucker up and my life was changed forever thank you Motley Crue
been a big big fan since 1985, Thanks for all of your hard work.
Tommy Lee is my drummer hero.
if he's not someone's hero(esp.a drummer's),then that person is medically retarded.
Mine too brother!!
@@TheQ2004 Sad.
Tommy lee is a great drummer
a great time and a great era. all came together for the four of them..along with all the other metal bands we grew up with..i can only imagine what their lives were like back then, and man how id have loved to be one of them!
Fun watching this. Saw them on tour w/Ozzie in Seattle when in H.S. We rebelled against new wave and they definitely helped. Good times!
Vince, Nikki, Mick & Tommy sounds way better than Vince, Frank, Robert & Tommy!
you mean Vince Neil is better than Vincent Wharton...
Nikki Sixx is better than Frank Ferrana....
Mick Mars is better than Robert Deal....
and Tommy Lee is better than Thomas Bass
For the Motley Crue haters out there, the ones who criticize them (In their minds) for not being good musicians, watch this video and you’ll understand why fans, like me, never ever thought about them as being good musicians nor do we care. It’s about the look, the sound, the meaning behind the songs, the escape, the attitude. And it always will be. And you know what? They are good musicians. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Loved them in the 80s, throughout the 90s and on and on. What a band!! 🤘
I was around 14 when these guys reunited (2004). I didn’t know NOTHING about them. Here I am sitting in the living room one channel was reprising US festival from '83. My mind was blown away, I couldn’t describe how I felt. I had chills all over and that is when I became their fan.
Next day I bought their CD discography and until this day I never stopped listening to them.

@dankim6290 - Oh you so need to buy it on vinyl/record and listen that way.
Some may complain about how they left out the dangerous and stupid things they did and the addiction, but this is the story of the early days. I love this snapshot of the energy and promise of this period. They end this doc with the beginning of the craziness. And Mick stayed sane through it all.

Met Nikki Sixx at my first job at Big 5 in Southern California and took a selfie with him. Always trips me out to listen to Motley Crue and see him on videos
Use the pic as your UA-cam photo
@@Iceis_Phoenix People would steal and edit/reconfigure/remaster it if they used it as their UA-cam photo or as any other social/media/app/website photo. It might be signed and very precious to them.
I also was a student at charter oak high school.
Omg I watched this so so so many years ago and finally came back
I bought shout at the devil at a swap meet, It was a pirated cassette it sound like shit but couldn't get enough of it....
Tommy's younger sister is awesome.
Great documentary. I never seen this one before. Awesome pictures and old footage. Nice work 👍👍After seeing this, how can you NOT like them. I'm glad for being a fan since SATD.
SkümmTöönS '66 she seemed Meth-y to me, but then again so does Tommy Lee
@@lyzzlyzzy1023 Hahaha. She did huh?
Been a fan since their first Album. Dirty, gritty songs that all kick ass!!
I always liked tommy lee because i’ve been skinny all my life like him and i used to be self conscious about it in high school. But as an adult, i got a lot chicks and realized women are into slim and lanky looking guys. So many women generally don’t like muscle meathead types which is hilarious to me because i always though that’s what they wanted
Yeah was real skinny like Leo DiCaprio skinny and in High School wore long sleeve shirts. Most girls don't care you start not paying attention that much.
Well all I know is my 80s life wouldn't of been complete without this band. I'm 52 today and I still love when a song comes on the vehicles radio. Good memories. My young adult life, my friend got to meet them backstage. They didn't ask me. She never came home for two days and the lies I had to tell her parents. Was crazy! Lol
As a 52yr old female I can totally relate. I actually think they were great and my school days wouldn't have been the same without them. Class of 1988 rocked!

I still remember going into a record store and buying the "Shout at the Devil" album when it first came out. When I first looked at it I was thinking "who are these chicks?" LMAO! Then, I ended up liking the album so much that I played it constantly. It would have been totally awesome to be in Hollywood hanging out on the Sunset Strip back then. I wish I hadn't lived so far North of there. I was in my room playing my guitar for like 8 to 10 hours a day back in the early '80s. Those were the ultimate days to be there in Hollywood and have a good chance of getting into a band and making it big. Dam...I missed out. :( I still like to make trips to Hollywood to go to the clubs and see bands there. There's still some of that magical feeling there left over from the good ol' days. At least the Whiskey, Roxy, Viper Room, Troubadour, and a few other clubs are still there. :)
@OZRIC1985 it is 6 years later and I'd like to know if those clubs are still there in March 2024? Your comment kind of made me laugh with you saying you wished you hadn't lived so far North of there because I wished/wish the same. Though you I'm guessing didn't live so far North of there that you couldn't get in a car and do a road trip if you could drive or had friends who could drive and had cars? My to far North from there was then, and still is now impossible even with a road trip, bus or train with a vast ocean separating me from those clubs in gloomy repressive UK where most people can't afford air fare or sea fare tickets further than Crete/Turkey, if lucky the Maldives for a week. I can't afford air fare tickets to anyway anymore with the cost of living having gone up so much. I once went to Florida as a young teenager and loved loved loved it, was devastated to have to return to dark ages backwards North/North West UK. I have though lived abroad when younger in Europe and a few Islands just off there before they became part of Europe and the day the UK joined Europe I jumped estatically with joy, my freedom pass doors wide open welcoming. And the day of Brexit and England leaving Europe insanely, well that was my coffin nailed and sealed. Money devalued, UK prices rocketed, certain products vanished from the shelves and those welcoming open doors within actual Europe now slammed in British faces. I truly feel trapped, held hostage, held prisoner, held under repressive oppressive dark aged poverty stricken backwards UKUSSR (made that word up, it is fitting) dictatorship unable to escape the crushing gestapo vice grip of the silencing how dare you even breathe UK!

2. My kind of lover cover
3. Make America Rock again!!
And great too! Viva el trump!
I own this on Vhs and recently put it to dvd!! Awesome piece of History from my favorite band. I purchased it at a record store in Hollywood. It was Hand written label like a family vacation trip you recorded on video. It even said poor quality on it. Motley Crue-1st show-poor quality picture!! I purchased it at the same store where i got my Leathure record. I still have that also!! Oh man, I was on cloud nine that day scoring stuff from the greatest metal band. I think LA had like 400 record stores then. I dont remember what store. I had to watch my copy to at the same time as this to make sure it was the same show i have. Lol. Yep Nikki and the guys are killing it!! It came from a cheap consumer camcorder but i dont care. Im glad someone thought to record it. So thanks to whoever did this!!I This is Crucial Crue In the Beginning.
i really can't believe i'm going to see this guys on live! i think it's the first time they come to Spain and I didn't miss the opportunity
Saw these guys in concert best show ever 🤘🤘🤘🤘CRUE RULES
NIkki Sixx is something different. Don't make these anymore

I have a whole new appreciation for Tommy. Ballet and tap? Do you know how hard those dances are? He was PRETTY DAMN GOOD TOO! DID YOU SEE HIM? VERY IMPRESSIVE!!! His sister is GORGEOUS! I knew his mom was a beauty queen, so this shouldn't surprise me. Is that where Tommy learned to dance too? Beauty queens have to be in the talent competition too. ❤❤❤🤟🌸👍! Vince's daddy is funny. Wee wee all over his face. That's what little boys do! Vince was a beautiful little kid. Perfect model! He was so cute! Look at him. Vince a dancer too and a figure skater? WOW!!! EVEN HIS DADDY WAS AMAZED! And they are still together today. Amazing. ALL OF THEM. ❤🤟🌸👍🌹
