Direto da Blender, sábias palavras de um PhD em porra-louquice, Nikki Sixx, do Mötley Crüe. Perguntas de internautas em itálico, repostas do baixista em negrito:
I’m thinking of getting engaged to my girlfriend — do you have any advice for me?
Lani1980, HonoluluYeah, I do. I’ve been through it twice, and trust me: Don’t fuckin’ do it. Love them, buy them flowers, chocolates, seduce them with romance, live together, have cute little names for each other. Do. Not. Get. Fucking. Married. EVER.You’ve swallowed lightbulbs, and you’ve shot up heroin just hours after a near-fatal overdose. What do you think is the stupidest thing you’ve ever done? Starpower99, St. LouisWell that would be two right there, wouldn’t it? I think going headfirst into heroin addiction was one of the stupidest things I ever did. I had no second thoughts. It was just like, Oh, I’m invincible. My heroes have been junkies — I’m goin’ for it. Ridiculous.Bem, eu nunca engoli lâmpadas E/OU heroína, muito menos morri para ser ressucitado em seguida, como o dito cujo. Meu herói? Essa seria mais difícil ainda de engolir, mas as atitudes do
gentleman refletem um pouco as diferenças do rock dos anos 70 pro dos anos 80.
Nikki Sixx
Robert PlantExiste uma lenda que diz que Robert Plant, sob estímulos químicos e de torcida, pulou do telhado direto numa piscina de uma casa, depois de afirmar ser um "Deus Dourado".
Nikki pulou, DE VERDADE, de um trem-bala. Em movimento.
Essa aí talvez seja explicada por essa aqui:
In the ’80s you stopped showering for weeks at a time. What’s the longest you went unwashed?
thrillkill29, DetroitI think I went a month at one point. For us it was always, Let’s set a goal for something stupid and see if we can do it. We would put bounties out on stupid shit, like whoever could sleep with the fattest chick. And managers would start getting involved — one of them said there was a $10,000 bounty out for whoever could sleep with a mother-daughter team. Then that became too easy, so it was a mother-daughter-grandmother team. You couldn’t pay me now to do half that shit. Como se lê, é bem provável que Sixx tenha se "especializado" em fazer merda, por qualquer tipo de recompensa. Sem incorrer em pieguismo, penso que a diferença 70/80 do mundo do rock reside em sua profissionalização.
