Nikki Sixx and Tommy Lee Were On 'Entertainment Tonight'

I really never watch Entertainment Tonight. By chance, I clicked it on last night while I was waiting for Big Brother to start. I ended up seeing the last 10 minutes of ET and lo and behold - there was a feature on Nikki Sixx and Tommy Lee. This definitely surprised me. There was mention of the success of The Stadium Tour, details on the movie The Retaliators which features Motley Crue on the soundtrack and of course a Pamela Anderson mention. The entire package is below.

Tommy Lee is back onscreen, and this time as a strip club DJ.https://t.co/Bs3SH4WUZJ

"21 Bullets" - The Retaliators theme, written by Nikki Sixx and James Michael

[Him]

I got through about thirty seconds of that song. It sounded like John Waite with a head cold fed through a mechanical doodad. No thanks.

The movie? Well, I mean, it has the guy from Papa Roach in it! How could I not see it?!?! Sarcasm alert. Actually, I probably will see it, as I see almost every good, bad, and otherwise horror-sorta' movie.

But, a horror movie with metal (and metal-adjacent) people in it? _Trick or Treat_ (1986) is still the reigning king of that B-movie crop. You got Simmons, Ozzy, 'Skippy' (a bit of a throwback reference), and the magical dancing of Tony Fields (whose actual life story was both inspiring and, sadly, cut short). Oh, and you have Fastway doing the soundtrack! How can you miss?

i listened a little longer than Him, but couldn’t make it to the chorus. i’m wondering how long it takes before ted nugent chimes in about the opening riffoff guitar work.

Ugh, James Michael is such a horrible singer, I couldn't make it through that song.

[Allyson]

James Michael is not the signer of this track - he helped Nikki Sixx write it though. It's mostly Spencer Charnas and Danny Warsnop singing.

Thanks for clearing that up! That being said, not my cup of tea :)
