MÖTLEY CRÜE bassist Nikki Sixx checks in with the following update:

"Where did it start? Oh yeah years ago. But less on that on more on this…. Were on a little short European run of dates (an one international date in mind). We've just done five shows in a row, seven countries in a few less days. Tonight's (June 9th) show at the Download festival was magic. Wish you were there, all the pistons were firing and carburetor was wide open. Sexy, dark and beautiful in the ugliest of ways or in less poetic terms. We fucking rocked and so did Donington park. Sweaty, stinky, down and dirty and more sweat..…boiling under the tent and loving every moment off it. We just now got into London. Our day started in Brussels (fuck yes I had waffles for breakfast), then Amsterdam and finally Birmingham and now London. The cities alive out there and I'm dead in my room. I have plans tomorrow and I need my beauty sleep. Paris is calling."
