Motley Crue's Nikki Sixx talks about the bands future, and Motley Crue movie

Fri, 23 Dec 2011

Despite singer Vince Neil’s recent comments about possibly leaving Motley Crue after their Las Vegas residency, bassist Nikki Sixx has recently told Rolling Stone Magazine that the 3 week residency in February “is the beginning of what will be the biggest probably four to five years of the band’s career”.

"We’re negotiating with a couple of other extremely huge bands on doing a co-headline tour, something that’s never happened before. There's new music in the future." He then adds explaining what’s been discussed and planned within the band.

Sixx also talks about a Motley Crue Movie in the pipeline and explains “We finally got everything in order the way it needs to be done, and that’s gonna happen."

Although the band are looking forward to ‘the biggest years of their career’ Nikki Sixx also admits they know the end is near.

"The band sat down and had a powwow as brothers and friends and guys who’ve been doing this for over 30 years, and we said, 'When is it time?'" he says before adding they want to leave on a high similar to that of Led Zeppelin, “I always respected Led Zeppelin, and I’d rather Mötley Crüe be thought of as that type of band rather than a band that’s just going through the motions."
