Motley Crue Name Sank Corabi Era's Chance Of Success?
. Corabi tells One On One With Mitch Lafon : "That album would have been massive had it been any other name but Motley. The band wanted to change the name. We were thinking of NC for New Crue. We were tossing around names. Nikki Sixx always wanted to call a band Christmas. "All the people involved with the band - the record company, lawyers, agents, managers - everybody that was getting a commission saw that if Motley changed the name, Motley wasn't going to be making $300,000 a night. They were going to have to come back down to earth and start probably in theaters for a lot less money." He continues: "Everyone saw their commission dwindle, and they were the ones that talked us back into it. 'You guys are Motley Crue, you can't do this, you just signed a huge record deal'. They talked us out of it." Read more here. Classic Rock Magazine is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
