MÖTLEY CRÜE Bassist NIKKI SIXX: Smell The Finish Line

December 15, 2006

MÖTLEY CRÜE bassist Nikki Sixx has posted the following message in his online diary:

"Tonight [Dec. 13] was the last night of the AEROSMITH/MÖTLEY CRÜE Route of all Evil tour. The AEROSMITH guys have been the easiest band to tour with in our career. No drama, no competition. We all hung out together and had a blast. I'll miss them and I know they feel the same. They asked me to play 'Helter Skelter' onstage with them tonight and it was a dream come true. (not to mention we kicked some fucking ass…..) I'm sooo pumped right now thinging back on rocking up the stage with my heroes… Thank you, guys…

"First the [ROLLING] STONES, now AEROSMITH. I could call it a day and be a happy man as far a hanging out and playing with my childhood heros.

"I personaly can smell the finish line, like a horse heading for the barn. The last few days it's like I'm already home in my head. For me, this has been the hardest year of my life I've experienced in almost as long as I can remember. Going through a divorce during a tour is another level of stress I don't wish on anybody. But we get through what we have to get through and now it's time to focus on the most important things in my life, my children and my sobriety. Someone asked me how I didn't go into a downward spiral and I told them because it isn't an option anymore in my life.

"I'm excited to get back into photography and will post pics when I get them. Paul Brown and myself went into some back alleys here in Vancouver and gained the trust of some local drugs addicts. They ended up after time asking us if we would photograph them getting high and we did. (A few of the pics are under Foto-Reality on my page.)

"Days like yesterday and today are reminders how good we have it, even when we feel like our head is to the grindstone.

"I'm heading into the creative underground for a while, hopefully to resurface recharged and ready to come out swinging. How long? However long it takes…

"You just gotta roll with the punches. It's only life…"
