JOHN 5 On The Surreal Feeling Of Touring With MÖTLEY CRÜE - "It's Very Strange, And I Hope That Feeling Never Goes Away"
September 8, 2023, a year ago
Mötley Crüe guitarist John 5 guested on the September 7th livestream of That Rocks, joining hosts Eddie, Don and Jim to talk about Mötley Crüe, Marilyn Manson, Rob Zombie, and more. The interview begins at the 29:43 mark below.
John 5 on the initial surreal feeling of touring with Mötley Crüe, and whether it has gone away now that he has The Stadium Tour under his belt:
"We'll be doing shows or I'll be in the middle of a set, I'm up at the front with the guys, and I'll look at Vince (Neil) and it'll hit me for a second; it looks like the 'Home Sweet Home' video. That stuff hasn't gone away. It's very strange and I hope that feeling never goes away. I don't think it will because I never would have dreamt it in a million years."
Both loved and revered, John 5 is hitting the road again. The tour kicks off NAMM weekend with two special Southern California performances with special guest, Jared James Nichols.
