July 7, 2008, 16 years ago
As previously reported, MÖTLEY CRÜE guitarist Mick Mars suffers from Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS), a degenerative disease he was diagnosed with when he was 19 years old that has left him unable to move his head. The band's official merch site, SwagRox.com, is now offering an 100% authentic hand-signed (not a reproduction of any kind) 8X10 photographic print. A portion of all proceeds of this item will be donated to Mars' charity, Spondylitis Association of America .

Mars once commented on his condition to Blender Magazine: "If I could go places I would, but I'm stuck. This stuff I have won't allow me to move my head, so I can't drive. It's quite an inconvenience. This AS crap has shrunk me down really small. I used to be almost five-foot-nine, and I'm just a little over five-three now. It stinks... I'm just squashed."
