Added DiffLines:

* ActuallyPrettyFunny: Many of the band's biggest fans are the very people they lampoon. There are any number of videos of the guys onstage with 80's glam metal icons like Vince Neil or Brett Michaels who sing their hits with the guys.


Added DiffLines:

* SmallNameBigEgo: A lot of their early videos and the "war stories" they tell about the "good old days in the 80's" which, of course, never happened.

* SubvertedRhymeEveryOccasion: "Gold-Digging Whore"

to:

* SpellingSong: The title of "Gold-Digging Whore" is chanted letter-by-letter. The E, which doesn't really fit in with the rhythm, is delivered as an afterthought.
* SubvertedRhymeEveryOccasion: "Gold-Digging Whore"Whore" again, due to the band's lack of NWordPrivileges.

Moving to YMMV


* AcceptableTargets: Hookers, fat women and anything to do with 80's rock. Which by extension also means ''themselves''.



* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Amusingly several critics and even individuals who've met them claim they shouldn't be considered a parody band at all. They simply ''are''.



* CrossesTheLineTwice: Some critics feel they take jokes too far. Fans on the other hand, love the fact they frequently do this.



* DudeNotFunny: Some members of MotleyCrue (but not all of them) have explained that they don't get the joke. Amusingly enough, they're currently co-headlining a tour with Def Leppard with Steel Panther as support.
