Bravewords 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.
