Blabbermouth reports: MÖTLEY CRÜE
bassist Nikki Sixx has posted the following message in his online diary:
"Well, we're three shows into the tour
and so far we've only had a few 'MÖTLEY moments.'
"I blew a front tire on my bus on the highway.
As soon as it blew and bus started to swerve, I instantly thought of the
METALLICA incident. Vince [Neil, vocals] got hit in the face by some asshole
with a cup of piss. Last I saw of the guy he was handcuffed, face bloodied,
screaming 'I'm sorry, I'm sorry'
. What an idiot.[see full story for more]-

Vs Idol |

told entertainment reporter Dorothy Lucey he never intended the caustic
comments to see air. Cowell told Lucey it's like having a discussion during
a commercial -- then finding out the world was watching.[see full story

"Live to Win". Stanley is still in the process of shopping the record to
labels in various countries, explaining, "There's nothing worse, that I've

| Why
Brett Ran out of Fuel |
Day in Rock reports: The following is taken
from a statement issued by Brett Scallions about his decision to leave
Fuel. "The decision I have come to at this point in my life is to retire
from Fuel. This is not a decision I just came up with at the drop of a
hat. I have been thinking about this since the end of the Something Like
Human tour... I feel like I need to push myself more as a musician and
a writer and this is the best thing for me right now. Carl is a great songwriter.
I have great songs in me too. Fuel, however, was never much of a collaboration."
