MÖTLEY CRÜE’s Nikki Sixx - “Our Execution Day, So To Speak, Is New Year’s Eve Of This Year, And We Know What It Means, We Know What We’re Doing”

Mötley Crüe’s Nikki Sixx spoke with Rolling Stone Australia about the band’s farewell tour, dates down under and the final New Year’s Eve show at Staples Center in Los Angeles.

“You know, if you have a death sentence, the closer it comes to execution day you start to say, 'Hey, wait a minute, maybe I should re-think this’. But you know, it is what it is. Our execution day, so to speak, is New Year's Eve of this year, and we know what it means, we know what we're doing. We're smart, we're doing it on purpose, and of course there's little pings and pangs of emotion like, 'Oh man, this is my youth, this has been my life, it's been my best friend’. I've seen everything with these three guys, so of course there's moments. Sometimes on stage I'll look over and be really laying into it and I'll get a smile from Mick (Mars, guitar) and all of a sudden it will hit me, and vice versa I'm sure.”
