Nikki Sixx: Summer Tour is ‘Child’s Play’

Nikki Sixx is a busy guy these days. He’s got a radio show, his band SIXX:AM and new book, titled This is Gonna Hurt, with an accompanying album and documentary series. Oh, and of course, he’s still in Motley Crue. In an interview with Spinner.com, Sixx said he wants to take advantage of the opportunities he’s granted.


“It’s tiring, but at the same time it’s really exciting,” he said. “I will never have this experience again, so why would I ever take it for granted?”


He said that he loves that he gets to be in both SIXX:AM and Crue, who have a big tour planned this summer.


“We’re going on tour for two and a half months, which is child’s play compared to the old days,” he said. “We’re going around America with Poison and New York Dolls, and South America with Buckcherry. We haven't scheduled any European dates yet.


“Sixx:AM opened for Motley Crue on the Crue Fest before and I actually had more energy playing in two bands every night than I do with one. I think energy creates more energy. I have this way of looking at things that continues to catapult me and everyone around me into new and positive experiences, and it just keeps getting better.”


Sixx remains optimistic about his, and Motley’s, future.


“I truly feel that Motley Crue have some of our best days ahead of us,” he said. “It’s hard work, but it’s exciting.”
