Nikki Sixx: "I'm Very Gratefull To See So Many New Faces As Well As Long Time Fans At Our Shows" Print E-mail
Saturday, 26 July 2008

nikki_sixx2.jpgBravewords correspondent Debby Rao recently caught up with Motley Crue bassist Nikki Sixx on the bands current CrueFest Tour alongside Buckcherry, Papa Roach, Sixx's side project SIXX:AM and Trapt.

Several excerpts from the chat are included below.

Q: Nikki, how does it feel to be performing to a whole new generation of rock fans at Crüe Fest? You are currently on the road performing double duty with Mötley Crüe and SIXX A.M. What has the highlight been for you so far at Crüe Fest?

A: "I'm very grateful to see so many new fans as well as long time fans at our shows. Not only am I seeing a new audience with Mötley Crüe but Sixx A.M. has a very young fan base.

The fact that we are still able to connect to so many people over the years is something we can't explain. We hope in our hearts it's about the music. I know from my own experience that bands I used to like I've re-discovered through other people getting into them for the first time... then you realize how much you loved them, then you see they are on tour and next thing you know you're front row at Crüe Fest having the time of your life.
