Neil, blessed by the Crüe name, did a mere 15 days in jail (he was originally sentenced to 30 but got out early for good behavior). On the way there, Neil crashed into another vehicle, which tragically resulted in Razzle’s death. Running low on drinks, he and Rocks drummer Nicholas “Razzle” Dingley took a booze run. In 1984, Neil was with the members of Hanoi Rocks at his home in Redonda Beach. The moment allegedly went on to inspire Guns N’ Roses’ album The Spaghetti Incident? After weeks of wearing leather and sweating on stage, one lucky lady vomited spaghetti all over the bassist after getting a little too close. Tommy Lee and Nikki Sixx once had a bet to see who could go the longest without showering and still hook up with fans. The band would allegedly buy egg burritos and rub them on their bodies to “ mask the smell.” A shower didn’t seem to cross their minds it seems. The band would hide the fact that they’d been playing away from home from their significant others by visiting a restaurant called Noggles. They’d use socks, band fliers, magazines, or whatever else was on hand in its place. Another innovation came in the absence of toilet paper. They couldn’t afford pesticides at the time, so they’d use lighters and hair spray as their extermination measures. The band’s Sunset Strip apartment apparently had a roach problem at a near biblical scale.
The band has long admitted that in their early days they enjoyed reveling in their own filth (in fact the first three items on this list involve failings of personal hygiene). As they are in the middle of a colossal tour alongside Def Leppard, Poison, and Joan Jett, let’s take a look back at some of the moments that earned them the reputation of “The World’s Most Notorious Rock Band.”
#Bad reputation lyrics joan jett movie#
As The Dirt (both the Netflix movie and biography) can attest, few bands can rival the sheer rate of mayhem the foursome was delivering at the height of their fame.ĭespite all the antics, the group has endured, continuing to excite fans across several decades. In their pomp, Mötley Crüe was the poster child for unabashed rock n’ roll hedonism.
