Nikki Sixx spoke to Germany’s Radio Bob! about MÖTLEY CRÜE‘s “The Stadium Tour” which was originally scheduled to take place last summer but ended up being pushed back to 2021, and then to 2022, due to the coronavirus crisis. “We start rehearsals in May,” he said. “I start training in December.

During an appearance on MACHINE HEAD frontman Robb Flynn‘s “No Fuckin’ Regrets With Robb Flynn” podcast, former MARILYN MANSON and current ROB ZOMBIE guitarist reflected on the one and only time that he consumed an alcoholic beverage while on the road. He said (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): “The only time I ever had a drink — the only time — is we were on tour, it was [Marilyn Manson‘s] ‘Mechanical Animals’ tour, and PANTERA would always come.

And they were, like, ‘Okay, we’ve gotta go.’ And Dime‘s [PANTERA guitarist ‘Dimebag’ Darrell Abbott], like, ‘I...
