Motley Crue

Motley Crue are a Hard Rock/Hair Metal band formed in and popular in The '80s by drummer Tommy Lee and bassist Nikki Sixx, joined by guitarist Mick Mars and lastly by singer Vince Neil. Like most of their contemporaries from the Glam era, they were probably more well known for their sleazy, sordid antics than their music: during their first tour in Canada they were banned from Edmonton for carrying "dangerous weapons" (their stage spikes) and "indecent material" (Neil's porn) through customs, got accused of a bomb threat and threw a TV out the window of their hotel (all publicity stunts). They rose to international fame on the release of Shout At The Devil, Theater of Pain and Girls, Girls, Girls, receiving heavy rotation on MTV and selling millions of copies. Sixx has overdosed on heroin over a dozen times, three times near-fatal (the first of these in which he was declared dead for a minute, inspired the song "Kickstart My Heart").<br><br>The song used as an example is "Dr. Feelgood".
