No further comments.
Thank you very much!
26th of June 2005
I agree it
can seem like I have gone lazy here.But that is NOT
the case. I just did not really wanna post a long this and that
for each of the shows here in Spain.
Spain 24th of June
The Las Ramblas,
this is the most famous street in Barcelona.The Ramblas exists
of five parts starting at Pl. de Catalunya :
Rambla de Calanetes, Rambla del Estudis, Rambla St. Josep, also called Rambla
del flors because of the flower stands,
Rambla del Capuxtins and Rambla de Santa Monica. ((I know this
cause I asked one girl and her friend I talked to on a bench there.
They spelled this for me too so no nagging at me)) LOL ..There are lots of places of interest.
If you are a
tourist only to go here a day or two can easerly be used on this street
alone.
Hell yes!! Most shops are
open from 10am - 8 or 8.30 p.m., but many are closed during siesta,
from 1.30pm - 4.30 p.m. !
This could easerly be a huge posting for the day cause this is amazing.I did not how ever have too much time for my walking around. As I left Denmark on this day to be close to the actual time of the gig.Also because i was alone and have spend a zillion bucks already on tour related things so money had gone flying out my pockets this spring and summer 2005.
Well well - no
need to be sad. It has been a well worth paid trip all around.Spain is too hot
for me too.YES!!! You know it
and starts to get sick of it right!
Tommy stop the weather complaints!! Well I wont .. cause it fits me
nada.... not at all..Sorry ..Recinto
Ferial, Zaragoza, Spain 25th of June.Stayed at :
Calatayud,
Carr.
Madrid, Km. 237, 50300, Calatayud ...
a fairly distance to the venue for the show. But all nice calm
and peacefull...
In this town I
went to do a lill street walking to kind of help myself getting
off the fact of this being the last day!! Sounds sick but
man...it hurts. Getting all emotional about it.
Hell its a fucking tough thing to deal with.Can only remember
one of all my relationships that was this or felt
this hard to get through when ever we parted for a period of
time. Jesus christ!!
Anyway i did go to
see: A legend and a
strong tradition for music has found a perfect
framework in the
Auditorium, it is one of the best equipped buildings in Spain
for music and other cults. Really cool to see it. had a chance to
get inside too. A worker showed me a lill bit
around.
I was stunned. Beautiful.
Exhibitions are held
year-round in La Lonja and the palaces of
Montemuzo or Morlanes belonging to the Local Council. ((Hope all that
shit got spelled out right)) but it was ....it still is nice to have seen a few of these things. Took my mind off
of things.
Ofcause a lot of the streets and shops and what ever you have else where
too.
Had a soft drink
in the center of town. Sitting there chatting with some Spanish youth. They were okay on
the english part so it went well. LOL.
Should you ever
come to this place - do check out the railway station.
New and modern amazing. It is a complete
centre which is to be located on a 75 hectare plot belonging to the
railway, in the area of the
city of the same name.
Intentions are also to build a forecourt for coaches and two new hotels.
Awesome!!!
There was not too
much Crüe to be seen or maybe I just was
at the wrong sides of town who knows. But the show was
as it was ment to be. No further ongoing about it.
As they "Helter Skelter" song started out I was in tears again.
I knew this was to be the soon end of Europe summer 2005.
It hurts me like a mutha fucker. I again never found the venue poster
though I would have loved to get it .Actually nothing
in any papers either.
That is probably the sadest part I went through cause this was the end for me this time around and would have loved to get something that was from these parts of the woods so to speak. I never did. It was much like in the UK. Do not know how many papers I went through and never found anything.Maybe also cause to day it is a weekend again. And most people wait and do the reviews that then comes in the papers for lets say Sunday or Monday even maybe.
It has been a
really cool few fats going days herein Spain.Now it is home
going and the every day life is back in my face.
Guess if I enjoy that!!
One big thank you
to a new found friend in California L.A. area George Ramsey.George I hope to
hell you will be a new guy in the line of my highly
appreciated future contacts. Love what you have
done and givin me so far.
So this I guess
raps up the European Mötley Crüe tour of 2005 Summer month of June. I feel a bit down
about it but there is nothing no one can do.
Give me a week and I will be back on my feet. I will already in
the coming days start my hunting for the chance to go to
the talked about Sep. shows in the States. BabyC - you hear
me I know and to you especially.
Thanks a great bunch!! You are a blessing to this old fuck.
Much love,
Mr. Dedicated
22nd of June 2005,
This is not a Crüe
day as such.
Yet every day is a
Mötley fucking Crüe day isnt it? What I a m trying
to say here is that I have a day off now. Before Spain is calling at me.
I have had a
splended couple of weeks and I have now a small chance
to let things sink in a lill bit more than when they were
actually happening!! I am looking at all the stuff I have laying
around.
Trust me due to all the doings in between the travelling I have had to
do
the laundry and all the daily things before next plane or train or boat has been taken me
to my next destination.
In short - My
apartment is looking like it has been bombed!!!
There are Mötley Crüe all over the stinky place.-I can now look at
it a bit,. And say wow yeahh this was in that city
and the concert of the day was like .,...You know what I am
saying right!! Okay!! This tour
has been a blessing like said before in my diary. I have been givin
a life long memory in experience and i WILL BE MYSELF AND MR SIXX
FOREVER GREATFULL.
That is the god to
honest truth.
I have truely skipped and and thanked no to so many things I can not even begin to tell you. Simply to make this one happen for myself. The touring and lit lot of it .Many people has been telling me it is a major mouthful to do. But I would not have it any other way. These boys are here now. And things could happen everybody I have talked to says the same thing. With the Crüe you can just never be sure. As said this is not a Crüe day as such just wanted to let you in on what my brains are going though with all this.
It is soon over
for the European tour and I have the much talked about Sep.
thing to hope and pray for to happen. It is a thing I
really like to do. So - let`s see.
Now back to my
every day doings before tomorrow calls me out again. I hope my new
friends out there will get their asses in gear and write something soon. Miss you all.
Sounds like
another sick love song this one? Well......tough!!!
Lick it .Baby!!!
21st of June 2005
Right, final day
of travelling in the UK. and to the UK. It does feel a bit
hard. This diary thing is started on the plane from Denmark to the
Newcastle airport.
Not too long a
flight but rather a tiering one since it is the what ever in the line of
what ever. In other words
there are shit loads of things that has been delt with over the last 2
weeks in Europe.
Denmark is where I live.
I have been to Germany, Finland, Norway, Sweden,
Scotland, England,
Wales and now Ireland... Spain to come in the weekend to be.I have a lot of memories from this tour. And a few
concerns as well. If you care to read the lot in the European diary
section here you will get to see what I mean. It has been rough. But it has thank god also been
far far far more an adventure than I could ever had hoped for.
I am still missing one as crazy. No matter how
near or far I am from BabyC I have to admit the feeling inside has taken
me totally by surprise.
I love love love love love this BabyC but hell, things are sometimes so out of reach it is about to make me feel as if I should explode or something worse. Have and could call certain ones - but I will not. I will not cross lines set and loose what ever I have gained. You know or do not know what I here am talking about. It does not really matter. I guess the few that knows is fine with me.
I am so hot for going to my September offer for
Crüe in the states.
But a few things - practical things needs to be sorted as soon as
possible for that to happen. My personal guess here and now is : IT WILL
HAPPEN. Why do I say that? Because I want it bad enough.
And what I want bad enough I normally go after no matter the costs!! Healthy? Fuck no. Not all the time. Burning my
fingers? Every now and then yes!!! Then why do it? Simple - GO FOR WHAT YOU LOVE - GO FOR WHAT YOUR
HEART BLEEDS FOR. YOU LIVE ONLY ONES. DONT WASTE IT...
Okay Newcastle. What do I expect. Hard to say
cause it is the last day in Great Britain.
But I have also seen all the shows before this so I can also feel calm
when I say.
It will be "just another show". Awesome or less awesome.
Yes... does not really matter. It is my dream that is closing up.
Crüe in Europe again. Never thought I should weap so many tears in joy. Fuck man - I have cried every single night on this
tour. It is like .
yeah what Tommy ? You know?!! I can not say.
I can not compare this with anything I have experienced earlier in my life.
Hope only one thing for my future will and can at
least try to top this ...
"You" out there knows what I am taking about.
Landing .. rapping this up. Too many thoughts right now. Be back later ...
...Later I guess is now. I have about 15 minutes before I will leave for
the Newcastle Arena. Stying at 6th floor at Jurys Inn Hotel at St James
Gate Scotswood Road Newcastle Upon Tyne, Ne4 7jh. In the city center. Actually quiet nice. But also a bit ... nahhh NOT!!! I will leave that
one thought out!! I wonder if I will meet any of my friends from
other cities here tonight! Many I have met and the fewer of them have been a
pain in the ass. Go figure.
Okay my ticket and passport and all... Leaving it
here.
I only need some ID to pick up the special pass and photo pass at the
box office.
No sadly not... no meet n greet today LOL LOL LOL .. Miss it yes but can not have it all. Not easy to be in that kind of position. I guess
maybe I never will be.
Sitting here with a quick cup of coffee NOT like
SIXX`s coffee ..
thats fucking sugar with coffee. Not the other way around. -Like he isnt sweet enough. Fuck that. He is super
....Anyways with my coffee I sit here again wanna call
certain ones but have promised myself to be good. Be a good boy and not do that. What the fuck am I
saying?!! I need that person in my ear. But yet I stick to a
self givin promise. NO CALLS!!!!!!!
Okay coffee is nice coffee is soon gone and I will
be on my way to yet
another rock mutha fucking roll circus of a show. In other words Mötley Crüe live. Here we go... booom booom boooom booom .. shout
shout shout shout .SHOUT AT THE
DEVIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Break!!!
back!!! Almost midnight!! A bit worn out. But ..
smiling.
No picks, sticks, set lists, or anything. No merchandise as ALL items are in hand already. No nothing but a memo from the evening. Bad show .. not buuhh huuu but BAD!! ass ... show.
Burned the city down here too. NO suprises for this the farewell UK show of the
evening. Simply done as every where else. I am alright with that. No complaints here.
Did actually meet 2 guys from an earlier meet n
greet from some city.
have kind of forgotten where that was. But we stod together for the show and shared our
Crüe thoughts.
One guy was dissapointed of the two about the meet n greet thing. Too short - not a chance in hell to get a decent
view on the happening as it happend.
Well do not really know what to say to that. I too had expected more from the meet n greets .
But ONLY because the Fanfire has promoted it to be more.Not for any other reason.
it is a final flight back to Denmark in the
morning to be home for about
a day and a half then only 2 more gigs are up. Spain!!! What will not go thought my mind after
the last evening then huhh!!!
Like saying good bye to a girlfriend. A real sucker for that kind of crap. Ask anyone
that knows me well.
Weak ass thats me.Rocking ass thats me too... Nice ass -.can be a times...okay okay okay...
enough already!!!
To my brothers and sisters out there - so far
thanks for everything.
To Nik, Tom, Vince and Mick ... for the fucking tour the memos the
treatment
the everything brothers .. THANKS A MILLION!!!
Peace ....
Tommy 19th of June 2005
Fuck me!! Not litteraly. But
fuck me did I have a good nights sleep.
At the house of my
new found friends...lol lol lol. A sleep over
outside Cardiff was excellent.I woke up about
8.20 the alarm clock was set to 8.30 so I was just in time.Both me and
Mattias slept in the living room of these guys.
He woke up a lill later than me AFTER the alarm clock went wild on him.
Nice in.
Okay I am up and
so are the people - we wanted to go as soon as possible since we had a drive about 2 and a half to 3 hrs long.
We needed to get
to the north east part of London to Standsted Airport to
return the car before the Wembley show. So in a way we
were a lill busy!!
But before take
off I wanted to show the guys something on the net and also
see if I could go online at my email account. Of course I could
not. Well... hell with it. I did how ever get
a couple of shots with my friends.
I need to get them from Mattias later on though to get in on the net
here. So you will have
to wait a bit and return to this date. So is it by the
way with the meet n greet shots.
2 have been put up from Helsinki and Oslo already.
Scroll down and find them on this page. We took off and
thanked our nice hosts for a splended night evening
and what else I can think of. Hope seriously
they will get back to me asap. I wanna keep contact. Hell yes!!!
Okay we roll out
of Wales towards England again. Cross the bridge
and agree that we both need water and something to eat
as soon as we can.. also a need to fuel the car. It has to be
returned with full tank. This car bit has been excellent this
time around but also the thing that took m y money. Not complaning
here.... back off .. LOL!!! No it really has
been an excellent ride. No major shit with the car or driving. All plesant and a
nice storage for the shit we have brought and bought though out the
week. Trust me.
We arrived in
Stansted around 1 PM. We had a deadline at 1.30 so in good time.As Mattias went to
clear the paper works I repacked my shit. Since we picked it
up a week ago I have now shit loads more to carry around.Again not
complaning. Just facts. A what a load of cool stuff that is for a fan
like myself. I would not mind
if I had to carry this shit to Sydney - I love my new shit.
As we got all set
and the car key had been returned we went up into the terminal.
Wanted to store our shit. Man I had not really expected that to be so
highly priced.
5 UK pounds a piece. I had 3 pieces.
yet it was cheaper than a hotel or something.
Cause we will not stay at one tonight. Have no cash for
it either. Its either the streets or back and sit tight here for the
night!!!
A lot of Crüe talk
again between us. And a miss you much to you know who.
And if you dont then it doesnt really matter.
I only say this cause it filled a great part of me today!! We stored our shit
and hit for the buss terminal in the airport.
Another 7 £ and we were on a buss with NO aircondition in
over 35 degrees / 95 fahrenheit.
Fuck I got worried again that this ride would split my head in two from a headacke.
Thank god I managed. It is shit shit
shit hot today!! have been to the Uk and London
many times but never in a heat like this. This is not
normal... England - it always rains here... tell me I am wrong.
Anyways got off at
Liverpool st. and needed a subway out to the arena..
Wembley Arena Pavilion the venue for the night. We got underground
but found out it would be a lill bit more tricky than hoped for. Crue was in the
wait so it did not really matter. And again today is a platinum day.
The last one for me on this European tour. So fuck the xtra
costs and waits and buss changes.
We got there 30
mins ahead or just about so. Then again we got
picked up. Handed our passes and went to this
huge tent where the band would later show up. We got informed
today that cause of a busy scedual we would go straight to the meet n greet not in the Pavilion as we ought to. To get shown
around.
Fuck that already. Have done it plenty now on this tour too. So ... we all got in a lot of us today since there is a limited platinum list of 25 but due to high demand this city had later released about 12 more. that is also why we got ours. LUCKY SHOT!!!!
We sat in a round
almost waited for the band to come in. This was it. The
last day. The last shit to remember untill hopefully
my next meet shit in the USA in the late summer or fall. We will have to
see. I will do every god damn thing I can though to make it happen. Got my advantages
on it ... a few knows what I mean...I leave it at that!!
the band comes in.
Looking really psycked about this concert. It is London town.
The city that holds a man or two that is pretty much responsible for
this reunion tour happening. Thanks where ever
the fuck you are. This has been a shit cool experience.
Never will it be forgotten.
the band lines up
and I am maybe number 25 or 26 to get up there. Tommy keeps
zipping his wine glass as always.
Nikki this time is too drinking something .
Do not know what it is. But he is drinking. Mick just there -
cool sweet as always.
Vince having fun with leaning back into the tent kind of thing this meet
n greet is helt in.
Nikki makes weird things somethímes. He also steps in front of the band and simply make a long sticky saliva gross and let it leave his lips to sink into the carpet on the floor. Stick a plastic teaspoon up his nose for a few shots with fans and then take it out put it into his cup with what ever it is and licks it clean. Jummi!!!! My turn. Up we go.. I am feeling really good today but also a bit sad. Last one. Not last show but last meet with the lads here in Europe as it stands now. I hand them my DIRT book and Tommyland. Now finally my DIRT is signed too. Have waited a long long long time for that to happen. Awesome.
Vince steps up to me saying "hi Tommy - again -
you just can not stay away can you"
as he looks up and smiles. Looking kind of appreciated with the fact. NO I
CAN NOT!!! This is 4 guys that makes my life worth living.
Period. Nikki says "Hell Tom boy I thought last night was
your last?!!" Nikki you just dont always remember too well.
Hmm....Nikki goes "Good to see you though. Heading else
where?" Me "yeah Nick you this already. Newcastle Tuesday
and then Spain" Tommy Lee goes "(laughing) you rule totally dude.
Fucking awesome" I look at him and simply go "How can I not. You
make my life worth living and this is my life"
Well ... more is said and I ofcause can not at
this point remember it all.
But Mick again says "thanks for everything". It means a lot to me. he and I have an unsaid bond
that I can not really put into words.
He is so great to me every time I meet him. Thank you Mick. Love you more than you will ever
know.
The shots are taken. I am sweating like a pig and
probably smells like one too. I have not gotten the shots from this meet n greet
as I post this.
But I remember I for ones wanted my tatts in the picture some how. Hope I got it. In the second one or just before it
Tommy is on my right side he whispers something in my ear. I cant hear him but I point to him as the camera
goes CLICK and feel his arm resting on my head. What the fuck?? Wonder how that one turned out lol lol lol lol
That is it and that is that...
End of it all - I thanked the guys and gave each a
hand shake - Nikki gave me a hug said "thanks for all - see you later". Yes indeed. Count on it.
I sat down again. Got my books proudly with me and
was ready to go to the venue now. A nice good salute and "see ya" - not too hard to
say this "goodbye"
As the meet n greet got over with and we were
about to leave the tent I saw Tommy` signing pen laying on the floor. I
took it.
I saw Nikki` cup still not emptied. Asked
permission to grab it and I did. Off we went.
Wonder what was in the cup. Smelled it ..
COFFEE!!! Drank it the last bit ...hell Sixx you sweeten
coffee like an old lady.
this is not coffee, this is a sugar bomb!!
LOL LOL LOL....Went to the toilet dried it for coffee drops and
tried to take care of it. ((it is now on the "personal" section under looks
that kill)).
I wanted to bring it home with me. So I handled it with care.
Thinking about it - I feel sick. A cup and empty plastic cup. What the hell...Gotta be someone out there going "okay Tommy you opfficially lost it now". Show time almost. the band would start shit early today 8 PM. Still with the 2 opening bands. Did not wanna see them. so we sat outside in the shadow with a cold drink. Actually it was only water. But with a bit of ice to it. Needed it.
Then as the clock got closer and we wanted a good
view and rest .Tonight was all seatings also on the floor. Like
American concerts. Nice today. We were tired from the heat and all.. so a seat -
yes please. Second row. in front of Sixx. Could not ask for
better place. Awesome. The show started and it took about 3 songs till we
both looked at each other and said THIS SHOW IS OVER THE TOP.
And it was. Felt like the band had something to prove. Which I would say
.. they dont.
They rule this shit. They totally ruled LONDON tonight. Fuck me what a concert. Last - at "Helter Skelter" Nikki introduced his 15
year old son GUNNER SIXX to jam with the band on stage to this one song.
he looked stiff as a tree.
But Mr. Sixx looked fucking proud. At the start of the song.......Tommy Lee from his kit said to the spotlight guy
in the back to turn on the light on Gunner. Never happend. Then Tommy seriously got pissed asked the dirtbag
if he was up there smoking weed or something. Wonder if - that dick is still working for them. Asshole. Gunner was not impressive but fucking
christ -
it was such a KICK to see him there. Thanks Nikki for letting him get up there.
Now you have a son and Vince has Neil (his son) and Mick has a son too.. could that one day get to become a new band?
Im smiling - a thought that makes me
.......well!! It was just all over cool.
Final song and all. And lights got back on. We did
not really wanna leave.
I got another pick of Sixx tonight. have now gotten 3 of the same grey nameless ones
form the UK.,
Can not find one and know Mattias has another one of them so I have only
one.
Bullshit that is. true but also bullshit. Why should I hand away
something so passionate? Cause I am fucking stupid thats why....
Mattias got me a lill something from the stage
floor. Mick Mars piece. A paper that has the "Shout" guitar part
written. Wonder if he has a need for it cause he thinks he
would forget how it goes?
Dont have an answer to it. How ever I have it here brought that lill thing
home with me.
And it too is now in the "personal" section.
We slowly headed back outdoors. Not a bootleger to
be seen. Later down the street there was. I saw one guy
selling these Europe only dated shirts.
I grabbed one to look at and then came the Crue warriors and confiscated
the shit.
Not mine though. Not them or the seller saw I had it in my hand. Was only looking to see it and now all were gone
and I got myself a free shirt. Lol.....!!!
Later down the street. Another couple of guys sold
shit. i thought let me look.
And shit dude they sold the OFFICIAL DRAGON FLY shirts of crue.
Listed in the USA for about 20 - 25 dollars a pice. Here 3 of 20 punds. I grabbed 3 the only 3
different ones there were that I did not have. 2004 productions. Thanks
guys. Awesome.
Back to the buss stop and in short we headed our
way back to the airport. We have been so stinky tired as we got to Stansted
again...
and we had a long night in front of us.
hell - it really was so tough. I slept at the
airport floor but not really able to sleep like I should, ofcause not.
It was shit bad!!! I exchanged the last money ( nothing to write home
about)
and totally forgot that our bill for the storage for the baggage at the
airport. So fuck in hell. I had Swedish cash on me ..but only enough to get home cause we should fly from here to Malmoe in
Sweden. So Swedish cash was needed.
I exchanged a lill of it so I had the money to
cash it in. My baggage....But fuckin eyyy NEED MY BAGGAGE ofcause.
There are all my stuff there .. Not an option.
Okay!! Enough for the day!! Its shit late and kind hard .
So yes!!! I have so much time still and so many
miles to travel before I can actually put my key in my door and say:
IM HOME !!! Off I go.... Crue for life!!!!!! 18th of June 2005
Did what we had to do and got ready for the day.
Checking out of the Hill Hotel and driving south again! Out of England into Wales. South west United
Kingdom. Thats gonna be something else. Actually I am looking rather much forward to it. So 9.20 AM we checked out started our engines and
....off we went.
We did also have a thing to do. Tonight`s concert
in Cardiff is one thing.
But we need to go even further east of Cardiff. About 90 minute drive.
Why? Because I have an apointment with a guy there named Chris. To pick up a Motley Crue - gold record plague for the "universal - Classic Motley Crue" album. So we drove for a good hour. The heat is still amazing. Creeping in on us as the day goes by. Late mornings I would say we both needed a rest. So we stopped at this place to buy drinks and a bit to eat. Very observant to our health all of a sudden. The heat did this. Gotta be on our feet.
That lill stop did us good we took a piss and
drove on. Nice now on with some music for maybe the first
time. Boy this really is life. Loving every minute of it.
As we came to the water - was about to cross the
bridge to get to Wales from England - a bridge fee had to be paid. Or
they would not let us in. Close to 5 pounds.
But then it should not cost us a penny to cross it back to England
tomorrow. So I guess all was fine. Speaking of xtra costs never planned. Its just
like that. Always xtras every where every day!! We passed all cities and called this Chris guy
again. We arranged a meeting at a road center / store
MOTO at 47th at a time set.
I could only be pleased with it all.
Maybe this should be todays signed item. A gold
record. Halleluja. That could be an awesome thing. We will see. Have to see how it looks first
though. Have now met the guy paid up and
received this gold record. Looks really cool.
Yes indeed this will be todays signed item. Love every thought about it. I know the band has silver markers and this is
rather black like so..Would look good.
After the talk we turned our car around and went
east again towards Cardiff. The capitol of Wales. They have about the worlds
weirdest language here.
Thank god they also speak english. Dont understand shit. As we got to Cardiff, we wanted to do a city walk
now that we actually were here.
See a bit of this place.
So we found our way to a city Center parking
house. Stayed there and took off. After I had changed my pants and found a tank top
instead of this smelly shirt that I wore. The heat is steaming now.
Just like I will be as my babyC will be with me
some time later on. Hell yeah!!! Hear that babyC? Steamin`...
We was in real need of a photo or PC store that
could empty out Mattias`s digi cam.
Cause it was full. and we needed it badly. It was really a needed thing.
Need to document a lill something here and there
and get the show pix too. Ok we found that store delievered and had an hour
on our hands to walk around before the ordered disc from Mattias`s cam
was ready. I think it is fair to say that we enjoyed the
city of Cardiff really much. Lovely city.
But the heat was way hard on me.
Up at 96 degrees today. Thats about 32 in Europe. Hell hot.
Drink drink drink....I felt a constant need. And I
drank alot that day.
We found Hard Rock cafe in Cardiff too. Hurricane
Glass wants again but did not buy. Financial thing. Fuck I hate that
crap.
But we got in wanted to eat a lill. Just had a
sallad. But a sallad that was truely amazing. Loved it.
And for lill old me - ice water just tap water.
Mattias a lemonade.
We waited for quiet a long time to get it though... LOL.. How ever the Nikki Sixx bass from the earlier 80s
tour should be hanging in here.
Found it later.
We actually sat right next to Vinnie Vincent red
flying V and tour pants of
LICK IT UP Europe 1983. Mattias never saw it I dont think. I did. Got a
lill moved again.
KISS was many years of my life as well.
Paid the what (??) £ 15 and took of again. Wanted to go a lill more.
We did and at the end picked up a fresh camera
and a disc with photos.
Nice one, all ready again.
As we got to the car we left what we did not need
and then headed towards the arena.
We had a lill trouble finding the thing but found
it ofcause. Met the Cardiff friends in the streets while
walking earlier on by the way.
Talked Crue for a few then on...Later to meet at the show. As we got to the show I was a lill nervous you may
say. Was so looking forward to the show and the
platinum again.
But was a lill unsure of what would be in my envelope now. Cause I had the gold one already but was also
promised the platinum.
I requested my envelope at the box office and opend it. Inside one of each was there. Cool . What can you say to that huh? So I said
nothing but smiled. We got picked up and taken to another meet n
greet.
sounds like every day is one right? Well they almost are. Not to be a dick - but I love it.
I have for some reason totally forgotten about the
room and more single details from this one.
I can not really say what that is. But as it was my turn to step up to
the band. I felt weird. Something was wrong. Mick sweet as ever. opend and kind. I think I only
remember the others as a bit reserved or something.
Dont know.
I asked for Vince to sign my jacket. He did a lill sloppy signature but that was my own fucking fault. Why? Cause I did not put the gold record down that I also brought as the main thing for signing today!! Fuck how stupid can one guy be. Tommy (me myself) how big a dick can you be... fucking asshole.Well the signature is there.
Then I put the jacket away and showed the gold
record to Vince and Nikki stood next to him.
Vince signed it did not say much as far as I
remember. Nikki went "whats that. We sold gold?" - I said
something but do not remember.
There was this really strange mood.
He signed it, so did Tommy and Mick. Awesome
looking now all I can say. I desided to keep it in the picture as we
came to that. Both of them have me holding the thing in there. Have absolutely no ides how they looked posed or
anything. have not gotten the pix yet. As they all come by the way I promise I will post
one of them next to these dates in my diary. Plus pix from the show and
so on. No worries. It just takes time okay!!
SO I sat my ass down felt really weird.
I was terrified something was wrong. It could be anything. It could be
nothing.
It could be maybe just me? Man !!!! I live this shit. not good with bad
surprises here.
In all honesty I never knew. I simply never knew. How ever the meet n greet got done we were let out
again.
I found Mattias and we again talked about how it
was. I said to him it was strange very strange.
I wanted to let my shit back in the car but that
was rather far away.
So I desided to ask for a place to leave it all in the arena. I found one and paid up. So .. there .... safe!!!
I had one shirt missing from the merch stand so I
grabbed that and thank god cause the next day in London it was totally
sold out. Safe on that one too.
Still missing the wristband. Should have bought
that one in Helsinki. Far the cheapest place to get things on this tour. It has for some reason gotten more and more
expensive through out the tour. Not a nice feeling.
The show started shortly. We stood in the arena on
Nikki`s side. But what a heat in there from the get go. And what a bunch of fuckers next to us. Assholes
only there for making trouble.
Thank god the security people saw it before the show started for real
and handed out warnings like big time. One of them even got thrown out for 20 mins.
Let back in with a final warning.
Okayt lights out (again). BOOM BOOM BOOM .... heat fire explotions and shout
shout shout shout...
shout at the devil.
The ride had begun. In all I would say this show along with the
Glasgow one was the top of the list.
far suprime to the other ones.
Turku and Helsinki rocked apeshit too...but
Cardiff tonight!!
Hellooooooo it was a party in hell ( on the good side)
Actually speaking of party in hell.
It got to a point just before "Helter Skelter" that the sirens and
warnings were spread out though the communication system.
"Attention all - ewacuate the arena emidiately
blah blah blah..." What? Yes!!! It was said that the temp. has raised
to a level so the safety system had registered a warning .
It was like in an owen in then. Trust me. You did not have to jump or anything.
Just be in here and you
would have drops of sweat dripping from your chin after a short while.
It was litterrally a party in hell heat!
The Crüe heard the warning. But went on stage
after all for an encore.
Dropped the " Helter Skelter " song went straight to "Anarchy" most likely cause they wanted to finish off right
and also cause they were aware of the warning. I am suprised that an arena could at all get this
hot.
I have seen and been to about maybe 4-500 concerts in my life time. But NEVER witnessed a thing like that.
My words can not even begin to tell you how it felt. It was as if I stood in a shower seeing a show.
Thats what everyone said to me.
So now - out of the arena - yet another shirt and
off to the car with one of the Cardiff friends of mine. She drove with us and guided us to their house in
the city next to Cardiff. Not too long of a ride. talked alot in the car. Nice really really nice.
As we got there it was late - and Cardiff was a
city in party.
Never seen so many people out in the streets EVERY street as we headed back to the car. Home by these guys a cup of coffee and cola and a
sandwich ...
I was treated as if I was in a hotel. You guys are so sweet. Thanks again man... Now at around 2 AM time for a nap.
We got our covers and did again what we had to do
and hit the sack!!
So from here to you out there...Cardiff blew em all away. Wish it was a
Scandinavian gig.
Hell of a super blitztering concert.
one for the road:
Im a dick.. but you know what? Being a dick aint that bad. There are three kinds of people. Dicks, pussies and assholes.
Pussies think every one can get a long and dicks
just wanna fuck all the time without thinking at first. But then you got your assholes coming. And the assholes just wanna shit all over
everything. The pussies gets mad at the dicks ones in a while
cause they get fucked by the dicks. But dicks also fucks assholes pal.
Cause if the dicks did not fuck the assholes - you
know what?
You would have your dicks and your pussies all covered in shit. Who would want that?
Good nite - may you get fucked only by a clean
dick that later wont treat you like an asshole. Dont be a pussy!!!
17th of June 2005
Hot as hell this
morning. way too much for
this fucker. Woke up at 8 AM
local time. Nice to be here... feel so much better. Think the rest day
yesterday was truely a blessing for me. Stayed in bed till
round 10 Am chillin. LOL
I never do this.
Normally - wake up and out of bed instantly.
Maybe because I am single no need to stay there.. ups. Dirty trash!!
Singles can be - sorry. I dreamed all
night - good sign. Means I got a good sleep and a good rest. Relaxed body.
Awesome. Rarely have dirty
dreams but this one was. Enough said. It is
not a pornsite. Its a dedicated something to the Mötley fucking Crüe.
Now that I am up
and my shower has been taken, coffee is ready I feel like writing a lill
something. On this, yet
another day of rock n roll. Thinking about a
short note to each member. And then figure out what and how to do with
today too. Going for my
smashed bass from Glasgow. but I think I will only have Nikki signing
it. The full band can
be awesome and rare.. But it is a Sixx thing isnt it. Guess I go by the
feel at the moment when I get there.
Hopefully the
jacket will be signed and put to rest today too. Hope is all I have
right now. as said I will see as I am there. Then the Dirt and
Tommyland for the London gig.
I truely wanted 2
more things signed but there just aren't any hopes for it now is there? Well, thats how it
is. A true adict never reaches satisfaction fully does he? Am I right or am I
wrong?
Hopeless, bad,
stinking mutha fucking TV morning show is on the tele right now. Just killing time
sorry. But these kind of entertainments are fucking BAD!!! Nothing else
to be said. For fuck sake.
I think most of
today and actually the rest of this trip will be with burning heat. The weather
forecast says summer and a heat wave has arrived. Arrggghhh!!!!!!
Not good not
good.. damn it. Need cooler temp. The fucking arenas are gonna melt LOL
My thoughts this
noon of Friday are mostly on the fact of low cash and soon to be over
tour. Mixed with
thoughts about my missed ones !!! You know VERY well who you are. Feel a lill sad to
be frank with you all out there.
It has costed me a
greta deal of cash to do all this from the Feb 14th till this European
tour. I have passed on
so much and giving in for so much else. A bit fustrating
at times but this is a dream that only could be realized at a givin
time. and time is now. Wheater I am ready
or not. the waiting went so slow and now they are here it all goes by so
fast. Awefully fast -
shit. Well nothing you
can do about it. It will be a long time from here till Sep USA. But also the
thought of "back to reality and ordinary life" is killing me.
I dont really want
to go back. I always hate that
stinky fact.
A quick walk and a
talk about Crue and the shared trip with Mattias again. We do talk alot.
We analyse and share. Nice really nice.
Our trip over here is far more cool that the US thing in March. So much
easier and more appreciated it feels. Missing BabyC
madly. My friend Pearl - an unsolved issue is killing me. Both know why and
what I mean.
But on this burning day in the heat (and heart) of Coventry city
thoughts are on my mind like this big time ...Love you both to
death.
Could be a whole
novel on these issues alone but not really Crue like is it? hell no.
Okay - gaspping
for air. We just ate fish and chips. HEAVY meal ... holy cow. Feel like I am
about to explode. And with the 2000 degrees heat too ... BAD BAD BAD BAD
BAD BAD!!!!!! It is about 29
degrees here (euro counts) USA its about 90.
Now yu too know what I am talking about. Damn hot.
Time for the Crüe
talk to end and the Crüe show to start.
We drove about 5
minutes filled the car up with gas and took off to the N.E.C.Arena. Stinking hot. All
in the car was melted . and all that has to do wit the bandin the car
was taken out and
put in the cooler trunk. Thank god.
Brought the
smashed bass and the jacket to get signed as we got there and hit for
the box office. Got there about 2
hours early what the fuck?!! All good. Looked
around and laid on the green grass chillin in the shadow again. At the parking lot
we paid and even got ourselves a MOTLEY CRUE parking ticket. Never seen that
before. awesome. Collecting collecting collecting. Back to the boxoffice had problems with getting the platinum. So guess
Margerite will show up with them then.
(later) yes - 5.15 PM Margerite shows up saying
there are trouble with the printers for our tickets but she will be with us in 10 mins or so .. and all
will be ready.Okay!!
Ready steady go!! we were guided into the arena and asked to stand in
front of the stage on line. As rules same old rules were laid down to us all.
then the backstage thuing could begin. And I mean
really backstage. This meet n greet was not in a VIP room at all. It was backstage out between the cargo and boxes
of Crue gear. It was where the trucks load on and off. Never tried that before. Well something new. And
another new thing was about to be part of my life with Crue. camera for the shooting was set up and then it hit
us the news!!!
VINCE WAS NOT TO APPEAR FOR THE DAY! What the hell...Not good. Not really appreciated. In all honesty. Every single person here at this meet n greet today was swearing in silence. No need to say bad things but 90% were dissapointed. we have paisd a great deal here and ofcause want the lot. As promised. Never found out really what was the reason for his none apearence. But it quickly solved my worries with the bass . I was going for a Sixx signing only!!! then the 3 members on the inside of the jacket. Getting Vince tomorrow in Cardiff Wales. Thats how it went down too.
Sixx asked me too - how is the tour for you?
enjoying it? On again for tomorrow? I said "no only Gold".. he said "ahh cmon... no
you are on the list. meet you in Cardiff."
As stated earlier - he takles care of me in his
own way. Would someone kindly suck this mutha fuckin
stiffy? One fucked up unbelieveable cool bastard.
Ok people got called for. My turn to go up the the
boys again. What to do. I stop at Margurite`s and ask her to
be really carefull with the bass. I love it like a baby.
She took it gently and went to Sixx to sign it. the funny thing today was that Mick saw me I
hadn't even said anything as he gave me a hug on his own and said "so nice tosee you again are you still alright?" How can I not be touched by that? I am no female but the emotions reaches me high!!!
Sixx is signing the bass - "You fucking kill,
Nikki Sixx" Thats the message on the back under the "To Tommy"
he wrote on it after the smashing ...Fucking totally cool. Can not believe this one.
None other bass smashed has a writing on it from this tour. Mick talks to me a lot today. Extremely nice.
Why do I get a feeling this man likes me just a lill bit? Strange but nice feeling too. He reaches in to his pockets and says "ohh I
thought I had a pick or two in my pocket you could have but I haven't " Damn !! I would have loved that. Missing one form
him too.
Tommy I then hand my worn out jacket he signs it
inside and so does Míck. Tommy goes " thank you my brother. You`re cool.
Hope you`re alright. You are everywhere"!!!
Nikki si next and last of the three for the day!
Signs the inner back of the leather jacket as well. He says only nice things but a lot of it. Thanks
man.
As posted earlier it all goes so shit fast. I cant
really remember every comma said. What else? well - Sixx asks a few things I say a
few things too and bang he has listed me
on a platinum date for the morning show in
Cardiff. So now the 2 last shows on tour with Mattias will
be platinum's too.
The photo shots are ready to be taken so smack
smack they are done...Gonna have a ton of pix from this tour. Met and talked to a couple I met in Glasgow too. They live just outside Cardiff. We shred a lot
tonight but they then invited us to stay at their place for the night after tomorrows gig. Unreal. Rarely
met such friendly people.
We or rather I agreed with them on behalf of
myself and Mattias that was NOT at the meet n greet. No walking the streets then! Awesome.
A saving and a coolness I love.
Out to security / confiscation office.
left my bass and jacket there so I would not have that to hold on to it
for the show.
Nice ...
We go in - what can I say? Another fucking day
for rock n roll. Awesome kindness from the band towards me AGAIN. Bought a cold drink and sat down the heat is
killing me. The arena is cooking too. Close to 30 inside as well I would say. I hear the last day in London will be even hotter.
damn it.
Okay stop complaning. Tommy you dick you are having the time of your
life and the heat health or money should not stop the enjoyment of it.. well it doesnt... Thank you!!!
Lights out spots on and boom boom boom...Shout At The Devil. We`re rolling again. Thats a big 10-4. We stand tonight front row. Sixx`side. All ready all good. My new found Cardiff friends
have found us and
we are rocking family style on this one LOL Fuck it is awesome. Not really sure how it still can feel so fresh
after all these seen gigs on this tour KISS never TRUELY gave me this feeling. But then
again the tour here is so much closer to the band every fucking day now isnt it!!
I can only come up with one thing to say :
"the how and the boys especially just gets better and better by the
day!" All hail!!
Birmingham - rocked. All for the day. June 17th - thank you god bless
and good nite
Tomster
16th of June 2005
Alright.
all still
sleeping. I am up. Actually could have been starting this posting three
hours earlier. I have been up
that long now. Well rest is a good thing and from last night drive and
que on the highways half the night was
the reason for these two fucks to arrive at the hotel several hrs later
than planned for. It had gotten to
day light again. As we drove up to the this location. Coventry hill
Hotel. just outside Birmingham. A 10 minutes drive
to the arena for the evening tomorrow.
Another meet n
greet day!
It is a lill weird
that these dates just seem to fly away quicker than they arrived. well just a
thought.
We are sop appreciating this rest day. Feels nice in its own way to rest
from the tour and try do other things. Which we will. Blowing my nose
red here too. Hate that fucked up shit. Today is the day that its
peaking I think. my bad health.
Damn it. The crap
just wont leave my body.
2.22 PM he is up
Mattias. And ready to hit the showers. I will continue my thoughts here
a lill bit longer. There just was a
20 mins talk about Crüe between he and I.
Pearl and I used
to do that a lot. Share these
awesome thinkings. And laugh and hug a lot. Wonder if we ever will
again. Mattias and myself
share a great deal of opinions on the band these days.
Today is a time
for trying to let purpus of the trip go....Do something else.
I truely have to collect some energy and make a plan fro tomorrow too. What do I do?
What do I sign? The bass? By the
whole band or just Sixx? Something else? So many questions.
Think I`ll just have the bass signed by him and then go for the jacket
...
It is worn out now
pretty good and there for the signing of that and then make it go to
rest for life seems like a good plan. Cause later on I
want my Dirt book and Tommyland to get signed as well..And as said
yesterday - dont wanna be a pain in the ass .. so gotta hold back on the
shit I get signed.
Truely liked to
get the new yesterday found poster signed too..
See it is hopeless. Never ends...
Platinums still on
for a few days YES...but I like to get my shit straightend out. Birmingham,
Cardiff and London to go...All platinum days.
Financially - a
big black hole. LOL Nothing in there
jump in it and You`ll go deap. Financial madness
is the outcome of this doing!!
Ok - we will fill
up the car in 20 mins I guess and go to Coventry city ...see if we can
get something to eat and maybe go to the movies.
Or something. We will see. I for
one have so lill cash now but would like to do things at the same time.
should be a
pleasure not a burden doing this. Right?
Wanna take time
out to thank my buddy here for being cool, understanding and helpfull in
ways needed. This old dog has
done so much and is in fact still doing it. But it socts. And with the bad
helth and soon emptypockets my friend here shows true friendship. You`re awesome. Thanks for the
cheer...
My Alaska
travelled darling is thought of too. Was told yesterday
bout the bass and I think she now hates my guts for it LOL. Or maybe she is
just a lill green monster?
Green with envy! Miss you can not
wait to get time and a chánce to talk again. Next week - okay
now... BREAK!!! Off to the city!
8:13 PM Coventry
hotel. Been in the city
of Coventry. Had a nice dinner.
STEAK and all. Loved it. Rarely do things like that.
not good at sweten up my life like that.
Spend all on a
four letter word. C-R-.U-E. I wish I was able
to do things differently but . We also went to
the movies. Saw "Mr. & Mrs. Smith". Hollywood movie
big time. But good for a one timer and a time killer... Glad we did these
things. Awesome day. Feel
better now too. I think what the day has been spent with has been good
for both of us.
Relaxing not doing
much. Went shopping too
for food at a mall and head back here ... to the hotel. Thats all really
nothing of importance to say or tell right now. Off and out.
Tomorrow is a live day again N.E.C. Birmingham. Crue live friday
meet n greet and hopefully a jacket signed. Here right now the
rest of the day will be relaxing. Period. Hoped for
a nice overview of prices on this and that for the last part of this
trip .. did not really happen. It is tomorrow
instead ... but it is okay.
Be safe everyone -
much love

15th of June 2005
5 AM - telephone
wake up up call, alarm clock rings and the cell phone rings..
for fuck sake ... give it a rest . I am up!! Easy
now. We are shit tired but fuck it. It is a CRUE day ..And we are about
to feel freedom from the car pick up in a couple of hours down south. London - England. Packing all the
shit together ...and trying to have as lill outside my suitcase as
possible.
Funny no matter the size of a suitcase I bring to a music travelling - I will ALWAYS and I do mean ALWAYS have 1, 2, or 3 plastic bags with crap to go on the side.
This time its alright. My smashed Nikki bass is one my tube with the huge
posters signed last night is two already and this was just the first of a 7 day trip. Man how will it
not end.
Next concern would be the airport. Would the security staff let me bring it onboard?
Would they consider it a weapon?
Yeah yeah yeah I know sounds idiotic. How ever I had that experience in
the states last July. My Brides Of Destruction skateboard was considered a weapon. Really? Yes
really!!! Dumb ass shitheads.
What the hell are they thinking? They could not know I will give them that but I
would or could never
use a Sixx thing to hit someone with. Are you out of your mind. In fact I could never hit a soul. Except perhaps
one dick dumb ass man in my life...
no name mentiend. How ever for your information - the staff at
Glasgow airport was a-okay with it .. thank god.
I had now also gotten bad!! Really sick thunderous headacke, snotty, killing
throat and more. I really began to have something coming. But I was
good. I was alright. The illness got killed somehow cause I knew what I
was in the middle of. Plus the pills to ease pain that I had forgotten
back home Mattias had on him.
So it all helped a great deal.
Landed in London Standsted, claimed our bags and
turned to Hertz the car rental company to pick up our car. Always a pleasure to do these things this way.
Hidden expences always too by the way. Damn companies. But okay a nice comftable FORD was to be our
virecle for this tour.
Should this head acke get any worse I would
seriously gonna throw up. Car got packed and we were ready as hell to hit
towards Manchester. A lill nervous he was - Mattias to have to drive
in the wrong side of the road as they do over here. But we took a deap breath looked at each other and
off we went. Ready to kill this set goal.
UK tour with the Crüe 2005. Tonight`s destination
Manchester, Evening Arena.
My head got more and more bad as we drove along.
We stopped at a place got ourselves a cup of tea and a muffin., I had
myself a few pills and we drove along again.
Pearl and my BabyC was in mind all the time.
Felt weird at times when you are in the middle of
something and you out of the blue get to feel a "long for" someone that
is of highly importance to you. Okay not so emotional
now. LOL LOL My ears were beginning to hurt too so was it for
Mattias. We really had some good signs here huhh? Love the hell out of what we are in for but could
have felt even better with the health in place too. It all came down to a financial situation for me
too.
I want to do this and I am doing this. It is a hell of an important thing for me. I am
Crue dedicated and this is my trip. As a drug adic would feel I guess when he or she
feels the drug running through the vains of him or her.
This is just so much better...And like I said already. Fuck the illness. I am
here now and I love it. Just the thought of Glasgow how it all went down a
few life long wishes were full filled yesterday! And now these perfect signed posters from the TOO
FAST days and a smashed bass on the backseat!!
How could I NOT be hystericly happy?
Sick to say but it is Crue time and right now that
is far more important than any of my phisycal states.
yeah yeah, many probably goes "you`re sick". That is right. have a fever too I am sure. We stopped again a few times on our way to
Manchester. Got water and more. All the needed things we had
to be so carefull with. The last stop of the day was at around 2PM local
time here. Parking for the event of the evening. Near the venue. We grabbed our shit. Manchester
had 2 huge rock shows for the day. Mötley Crüe and U2. Both staying at the same hotel by the way. Manchester`s ONLY 5 star hotel - you figure it
out.
We desided to take a walk through the town. I collect Hurricane Glasses from the Hard Rock
Cafes.. .
and though we passed Manchester`s hard rock I never bought one.
Why? Cause I am short on cash. travelling
expenseces and tickets and
all have been high on this tour because I do so much and I would rather wait with the hurricane glasses
and get Crüe stuff instead.
Still we were in need of witnessing the merchandise what was here and the outdoor sold things too. So no hurricane for me.
Right now as it looks today I am missing out on
one shirt and a wristband. I can not really do much but these things I will
see if I can get so....still many days and shows to come so...
The bootleggers are as said another issue. Never
know what they bring and dont bring. I hate these fucks. But I can not say fuck it and
not buying them. Hate to admit it. But I grab what I can. I do
agree these dicks should not have a penny but as a Crue adict How can I pass? fucking sue me.
Thank god tomorrow is a resting day!! A lill shopping in Manchester too. 2 diff covers
for the latest Crue DVD. Bought em yes. Ofcause I did. But that was all
too. I was in a huge need of two things today a
phonecard and a net cafe. Got never the card cause none had international
cards anywhere. But the net cafe I did ask for and found it.
Sat in there for about an hour or maybe just 45
mins? Hmm cant really remember. I did email some of the important people so to
speak.
Needed to say hi, hello and also to get in touch with a few that really important ones too from emails that I have gotten. Over 60 new mails to go through. tried to reach my Danish best friend and Corinne of the US as well.. MUCH LOVE !!! Miss you much !!
back to the show!! Missed out both support acts cause I do not really
care.
Black Velvet is ok but the Killing Joke is fucking BAD!! They are so awefull. Will never own an album by
that band. Stinks!! MÖTLEY WAS AWESOME AGAIN TONIGHT!! Not the best show on the European tour till date
but ...
Trying to pick the bad things in the shows. Not
much to be fouond. Conclution: Crüe 2005 rocks. Do not start an argument on the subject with me. I refuse to hear it.
If you do not like the band I can respect that. But the tour is awesome.
Then and has most likely never been better their carrer.
We were close again this time to the stage. Mars
side Great view steaming hot crowd. By the last two songs we slowly moved backwards.
Why?
Because we wanted to track the boys down at the hotel. Left just before the band bowed to their fans. Outside we were the first there. A guy sold this new poster . Took 5 of them. I
know there will be a sort after thing on this one. The pic ti the new one cover of the tourbook. With
the UK dates below. Awesome nice... Finally have been wondering when someone would
think of doing this one. They are in the shit for the money trewated the
posters BADLY... so glad I got mine so early. Also found 3 new shirts. Got em. Then straight to the car. 10 mns . away.
Threw it all in the car and got ready to go to the
hotel. We drove there. And 30 sec after we arrived one
car pulled up. It was Mick Mars. One guy told us Sixx and Neil
had already arrived. Neil signed this guys 2 albums and so did Mick.
Nikki never reacted to the request. Just passed and went to the hotel. We had brought nothing to be sigend ... felt bad
but on the other hand alright too. Needed not to bother them like that. requesting
requesting requesting do NOT wanna be a pain in their asses.
I respect them too much to be one. Waited again 20 mins. The Crüe girls and Mighty Mike arrived in one car. All greeted us said hi and all. Friendly.
Mike is truely friendly. I would like to do an interview with him some
time.
Another 30 minutes went by.
Then Tommy arrived. Also he never said a thing
waved and went indoors. So much for that. We took off. Had a good 3 hrs.
drive to the hotel we stayed at. Why so long?
Cause we wanted to be there at this one hotel for
the next 3 nites. in Birmingham. Also the next city to be damaged by the boys. Tomorrow day off ...... feels fine.
The hotel staff at the Crue hotel were rude. FUCK
THESE DICKS!!! They do what they can for the safety and all to
their guests yes. But they do not have to be like these went on. I say no more. One comment only:
It is late 1.15 AM we are tired and long way to
drive .... later
Goodnight
Much Love
14th of June 2005
First and foremost
- my dearest friend, you know who you are -
this take off to part two or a three part European trip has
been a truely hard one starting.
-I will later give
you a huge IM SORRY but you have got to
find it in you to work with me here too. With that said let
me start the infamous and long awaited UK 2005 Motley Crue tour. Okay bitches and
bastards!!!
This day is not
out of this world. You fuckers have no idea. Did I not (??)
just the other day post in here that I was getting
a life long memory from this tour?
Even though it in all the practical ways is breaking my life apart. Getting smashed
up, ending up broke like fucking big time.
Have I also not said it is all worth it? Let me die today
and I can die a smiling guy!!
Hmm check this
mutha fucking posting. Started last
night. Extremely late.
Taken a ferry from my home town directly to Sweden.
Crüe already played there two or three days ago. Was there (read
other posting).
But my plane for the UK tour is leaving from Gothenburg so that is the
reason for a second trip through Sweden. From Gothenburg to Glasgow.
This morning/noon.
I am getting
myself a monster cold I can feel it coming. I feel ill.
Also the many thoughts about so much is not quiet helping me either.
But that is not gonna stop this fucker from rocking the roads.
Fuck that!!
Off I went again
with my Swedish friend. Mattias.
Pearl - my partner in crime missed shit much.
Moved to tears just thinking bout the damn fact that is up in the air.
(other
story).....She has kicked my ass and for what there is between us - I say sorry my dearest missed friend. You are missed
terribly here..
I had no one else I would have rather done this UK thing with. Believe
it or not.You know what shit
we have together and the only reason posting
this is because it effects my Crue trip here.
Do not allow
yourself to have doubts bout anything. I myself find that rather sick. No one can prove
anything more that we have proven each other in
this friendship over the years.Enough said.
Back to the
fuckin wanker ME, sick or not ... my ass... Landed in Glasgow guess to
what? RAIN!!! Greta for
the health that is already affected... It was 12.45 PM
local time. we were shit much ahead of plane Schedule how ever that
could have happend. But well well felt
nice.
On a train down to
Glasgow central station. From there only a 5 minute walk and the hotel
was at our feet. ARTTO HOTEL,
Glasgow. Nice and a cheap fucker too.
Great for a couple of fucks like us. Out to the arena
after we checked in and left our shit. I brought the
newly gotten HUGE Too fast For Love photo posters for signing.
At the Glasgow N.E.C.C. arena I got my platinum instantly. Bought a drink and
waited with my pride under my arm .. ready to get signed.
Huge 28x36 shots.
You all know em. They are the
single individual shots or rather shots from the same session that they
chose pictures for the back cover of
the first album.
COOOLLLL.......... They really look hot!!!
Can not believe
that I will FINALLY have these signed. I have always
wanted a really cool no FUCKING cool T.F. F. L. thing signed ..
not the album though.
This is it. So
awesome. And today is the day. Fuck yes (to quote T-bone)
We got picked up
and then to the actual signing I was perhaps the
13th guy or something like that. I see the band
really excited this day.
They are ready for the country that in the day last year put this shit
together. Thank you England.
Okay in total we were I guess 19 for this meet n greet. A pleasure.
The start of this
meet n greet was however in its own weird way - weird. Yet special. The
boys first ever Scotland, Glasgow gig. They had just come
in from Italy and were a bit delaid. The stage at 4.40
PM was still in its building stages. Nice to have that exclusive lill
inside look as it happend. We then got guided
up to this 3rd floor room VIP. Laid down the rules as always and waited. One guy infront of
me turned and said "Tommy?" I went like "Yes" ....was then told he
reconized me from the web or something. This jacket .. ohh
boy what that hasn't done for me. This tour of the UK will retire it
though!! We had a long chat
about CRUE and this universe of it ...felt shit great!!
You take care out
there - dont be a stranger - email me!!
I stepped up with
the photos I only picked up yesterday and gave to margurite
sweet as she is - helped out perfectly. She held and
rolled all 4 out on the floor and in all honesty the band freaked !!!!!
They know the shots but have perhaps never seen these this size or in
coulour ...
what do I know? They were how ever
very touched by seing them again. And they are fucking awesome too... Tommy first - He
kept talkin about this one .. and in the end signed it simple and gave
himself devil horns LOL...
On the poster that
is!!
Nikki again
saluted me big time. Talked for a fairly long time and as he signed his
Tommy and I talked a bit. He was still
looking at the shots and smiling!!
I got to tell him
so many things today felt good. Nikki got up from
signing the poster and said "this dude is so awesome. He is at every
show" gave me a hug on
his own and said : "I will make sure
that you get the bass tonight. Margurite see to it that that happens."
What?? Did Mr.
Nikki fucking sick Sixx just PROMISE me a smashed bass? I could only reply
in one way "Nikki dont fucking tease with that kind of thing.
It means too much". He said "Im not kidding." turned to Margurite and said "make sure it happens. This dude is special" I looked with tears in my eyes at Tommy. He replied "fuckin eyy you rock. Thanks for the support". I then get to Vince totally HAD to express my admiration to his stage presents so I said "Only one thing I have got to tell" He goes "Whats that?" - "I do not know what you have done or gone through but I have never heard you better.
You are awesome on this tour. You should be
fucking proud". He replied "Thanks that means a lot to me".
Then the incredible Mr. Mick Mars. He looked at me before I even said anything and
said "I know".
There you have it he read me like a book. Still I said " You are too incredible. You rule
and you know it" Finally I have spoken long to all and had my Too
Fast shit greased yup and was happy boy. Time for the photos to be taken.
Again in between Sixx and Neil. Love the fuckers. There is still a shot to be
taken with Mick. want that . I have a few more chances so....but the shots was
a dream and now
SIXX the dirty bastard gave me a promise on the debut of the UK tour and debut to the band as a live act in Scotland... a smashed bass.. how the fuck can anyone ask me NOT to be moved...I held it back right then but the tears were felt in the corner of my eyes. I do not know if he actually saw that!??
I collected my posters and walked away. A moved
guy. BabyC your thoughts? What could you be thinking? Seeing this creep walk away in a situation like
that?!!
C R U E C R U E C R U E C R U E C R U
E C R U E
It is absolutely fucking unheard of. Went outside after the experience to Mattias in
tears.
Not shaking but rather emotinally touched. Inside. We desided to back to the hotel before the concert
and leave the huge
Too Fast posters so they would not get damaged. Only 10 minutes walk.. It was ok. Rained still a
lill bit ..
We passed a 7 /11
or something. I found and bougt
3 magazines in there. Crue in em all. Under half priced
compared to Denmark and their fucked up
taxes that always go on top of sale price.. From the hotel where we looked at the signed shots Mattias took pix of em all..
And then .. yes!!! Back to the arena. Took a cab a bit of the way as it was raining harder
now. There we ate a
bit, talked, then time for the show.
We got ourselves
some awesome cool standing places. On the side of
Mick but by the far end microphone where they all at times will be at
this concert.
Up front close and
no pushing. Lights out - music
on.. the Glasgow concert had been officially opend!! Perfect view too
for the opening UK gig. I had till this
minute never dared dreaming of this to be real. Makes me almost
kind of sad when I think of the date. I know it has just
begin over here but it is so soon over. The waiting has
been MONTHS!!! Now its here .. closing in on the end. Fuck. Do not wanna
think about it. I am having too
cool a time
Everybody " Shout,
shout, shout, shout . shout at the devil"
Fuckin yes!!
Glasgow. All scottsmen damn - going crazy. You have to be to
wear kilts and talk like that in the first place... LOL Awesome crowd.
No ofense my
scottish friends. You`re all cool. Acording to Nikki
and Vince on stage this was as posted their first Scotland gig in
history. Some debut they
put up.
The further we got into the show the cooler it got. Simply fantastic, Glasgow rocks thats for sure. So far the best gig in Europe. What can it not end up with.
Time and time
again I thought of what this band means to me.
It is so intense. My god. The deaper
innerselves of these 4 boys - what do they think about us?
The cornerstone of hardcore fans? Just out of curriocity Id like to know. This could be a bad love song .da da da da da...it ends and Mars takes us into another world those of us that closes our eyes and only listens. Last song before the xtras... KICKSTART MY HEART!!
Nikki picks up a
black bass that at the end goes to planet pain for good. Ready to get
smashed up. He plays the whole
song Kickstart with this one .. and at the end unplug it and goes to the
center stage and demands a crowd`s yell out for destruction to the SIXX
string. BOOM!!!! BOOM!!!
BOOM!!! Smashing to the stage floor in pain....
I was sweating.
Like fuck ...In 5 minutes a promise I have not even dared dream for is
about to become reality in Scotland.
Bad ass!!!!!
It was black. The bass. It was a
perfect night for dreams. Dreams do come
true. Thanks to one guy!! N. S. I followed his
destruction to the instrument and through the song - every step of the
way. Teasing the
audience he had the bass pieces in hand
signaling it could end up in someones hands. Just not this
evening.
It was about to be
put 6 feet under yes. But the dane the only dane in
the arena was about to get his one too. If any man can
give a 4 sting instrument it is Nikki Sixx.
What could be
cooler than a neck or a body piece of his bass? Only one answer:
the whole shit right?
the neck the body the strings the strap... One last move from Sixx to his destruction of a bass... not throwing it
in to the crowd but rather high up under the ligning rigs, then it lands - in pain!!
And the band cleared the stage with a "Goodnight"
Lights come back on after a few minutes and
"Helter Skelter" is ready to burts out. Then last Glasgow show - or song - "Anarchy In The
UK".... in the middle of this one Lill Marguritecomes
out of the blue stands in front of me going "here you go Tommy, congrats, see you tomorrow okay take care"
And then like that I have a complete but smashed
Motley Crue Nikki Sixx bass guitar!
What can you possibly say after that? Can not say I truely had any doubts to the mans
word but its so unreal.
I guess you agree. this is just too good a story.
I will never fully understand myself but will
appreciate this move till my last living days. No one can convince me to stop this loyalty from
me.
Okay this posting begins to sound a lill slimy.. Sorry - I am just too excited. Signed on the front "F.Y.M.F." on the back "To Tommy" on the back of the neck
"2005"
Thats it ... on next meet n greet I need the band
to sign this fucker.
Crue has over the years proved a lot to me. I am deaper in this than just hearing the music
and thinking "its cool"
or displaying the posters. Its so much more for me.
We have a 6 AM traine to catch tomorrow to go to
the airport and
the n down south to London. Pick up a car and then that will be our
transportation the rest of this tour.
NICE!!! So cause of having the bass in hand and the early
get ups ..
we leave as the Anarchy still plays and goes for a taxi.
Pearl - no matter what you think back home ... I
wanted you to experience this with me. It is like a day of being crowed - in my all
collecting days. Its a dream that is so unreal. So is your
friendship. I will forever tresure it. Miss you silly... BabyC - I need to talk to you some more too.. .so
much to say and share .. hope it comes sooner than later ... Wish this was a
reality to be shared too...
Much love to all
and an undying respect to the boys and my deapest heartfelt what ever
to RNR Dr. surgust in rock
Mr Sikki Nixx, Peace brothers and
sisters,
Tommy
11th of June 2005,
Oh brother Oslo last night was the last of us together ... some are heading home tomorrow. I will continue. My friend Mattias and his friend and the two of mine all travelled together for the company and what it brings. I have to say my feet are killing me. Not ugly feet - (lol lol lol) but hurting. You a certain one out there - don’t laugh!!! I know what you are thinking.
Drove all night ... to get to you... good
Roy Orbison song.. like it.
Anyways, we did drive all night .. It was hard.
I hurt my knee so bad I was afraid something had happened to it.
But my thought of Crue was running a zillion miles an hour. Drove all the way to Malmo as I was told
that one of the two travelling From here on to - the middle of Skåne a part in the south of Sweden. Rested for a couple of hours and thats all. Took a ride down to the festival venue and stayed there. Worried about shitty rain all day but no nothing. All clear sunny weather.. nice for ones.
Did not really wanna do much...
Saw nothing special but had a huge surprise as I was there to get my wrist
band.
All access / backstage pass. Fuck me - had to attend that one. So I did. How was it? An experience yes, but my god how fucking stupid some media people can be. We were laid down the rules by this guy and were then told we could ask questions. No limits really. No issues not aloud. They would stay there for 20 minutes. How fucking waste of at least 10 of the 20 minutes in my book. Okay I am not a media person only though I run my rock n roll radio show NEW ROCKING SOUNDS -I got my shit together stood up and asked if the Europeans would see the band returning to the continent as they this time around had skipped so many countries. Nikki answered. In shot yes they will. That whole press thing was my first ever with the Crüe so ofcause I was thrilled like a ill kid. You can only imagine. I know I have had a shit fortunate year with the Crue and the Brides too And I am and will absolutely NOT complain. Why should I?? I have gotten so much most fans only dream of. And I am still not done with the Christmas feeling. Again my luck and thankfulness goes strictly to Mr. Nikki Sixx…..He knows fully well what kind of a fan and supporter I am and he knows very well by now this is NO HOBBY it’s a FUCKING LIFESTYLE. The press thing had a Swedish paper there too (amongst many) a girl there Nina I guess was her name She and I had a quick chat about the Tommy life of Crüe and she was amazed. Took a picture of my logo tattoo and I am sure she would use it in the paper that was to come out …today maybe? Hell I do not know – but the point is I thank you for the interest and I thank you for the nice compliments you gave me. Thank you.
About 8.30 – I met up with my friends again
the Crüe was not to go on before 11.30 PM.
Late and the last and closing band of this year’s festival.
Vince lost a few lines here and there too… but they were all in such a
good mood.
What blows my mind is to see Mick – he is by far the best surprise these
days.
To my travelling friends of Denmark – this
is the end of the road for you guys.
Sorry about all the hard times and emotional issues we had. Sweden Rock – Rocked!!!! 2005 I guess was the year the people behind the festival in the south of Sweden got their decade long dream come true. They got the Mötley`s and they got the press conference lined up and it is all history now. They will never top it. Not possible. They too ended the late night with a smile as wide as the size of their faces… Now a day off – heading home to repack and gain new energy. The coming week as said will have the UK tour and Spain to come. I need to do shit loads in the morning and the Monday is simply (I guess) not long enough in hours. Typical. But not complaining. That’s it and thats that from the Scandinavian part of Crue “Red White and Crue” tour 2005. See you all next week. Look in on the updated shit on LOOKS too … stuff everywhere !!!!!!!!!!!! Tommy 10th of June 2005
It is 6.47 AM got up way way
way way too early today. Have been awake
and up maybe since 4.30 - took my daily shower. Could not sleep.
The room was too light at the hostel and the heat was a lill too
high to feel comftable. How ever i went to
the PC got online and then I was waking up to a ton of emails. A great lot of
coolness too.
Today (too) is
BabyC day. So lucky me. How
life at times shines down on me. Not often - but it
happens. Some will here go " shut the fuck up!!".
LOL - even for
this old fart life can sometimes be smiling at me.
7.20 AM train
rolling. Towards Norway. Sitting in my seat
and eating my yougurt. - cheap a bit borring meal but....Fuck I`m
psycked... Only because of
such a splended morning - early online things. Found out some things and
a lill chat ...Was needed more
than a fix right that second.
NO!!! I am not on
drugs. If Crüe is such a thing - you may very well call me a junkie. A rock n roll
junkie. BabyC rules my
fucked up mind these days .....CRUE CRUE CRUE CRUE ...... Let me in on a
little hope for the day!! As my meet n greet
gets closer for the day!! I wanna ask my
oldest hero in the band Mr. T-bone about wearing my site leather jacket
in one of the shots with
the band!!! (look for it in "CRUEHEAD".
I would fucking
die to have him wearing it. He is the reason
for my name thing too. YES folks I bought the god damn fucker ....Just amazing how
much weird shit I have gotten from it. Okay I will stop
this posting now cause it is one story that can be too fucking long.. But Tommy in my
tour 2005 jacket ... FUCK THAT CRAP!!!! IT ROCKS!!!
Fucking cool ide
or what?Fuck YES!!!
We`ll see. I will
absolutely ask for it though. Thoughts are many on this train. Hell I have been
waiting for this Euro tour for a decade. It is here NOW - and I go to em
all exceptthis one Sunday.
Time scedual didnt fit .FUCKING CRAP!!
My mind is on this
so massively.It is a 1000 times
better than sex or anyhting else.. Fuck Sex ..
Ironic? well fuck it!!! Now 7.45 AM I
better lay off a bit. It is so filled up in my mind but I can not put it
all on paper or here in the diary cause
I would not be able to do anything else then. But honey, baby, darling,
sugar - the shit is going
down NOW and . hell KISS THE DEDICATED .......till later in the day....
Back!!!
8.45 AM hard not
to lift myself from this "pressure" of words and thoughts inside of me. There `s nothing
bad with the company Im travelling with at all - but because Im so over
dedicated if you will I miss the one at
my level to share with. Tears and emotions - past decades and future
dreams runs through my skull big time.
I have said it
before and I say it again. I do it for myself but this time it had been
nice with my equal next to me. How can I help
thinking that way? I can not. I have NEVER had that chance to meet that
one. Freaks me out in a way too. Ok, not really
happening -only one I can think of .she sits far far away. Shit !!
Right okay closing
in on noon here .. .Oslo next stop .. shortly!! -Finally moving to
what it`s all about. The late afternoon and evening`show. Frames:
SPEKTRUM.
My swedish friend
Mattias is meeting me today and having his meet n greet a long time
drema for him too. After talking to
tons of new faces ones again Oslo was ready to give us our tickets
((platinum)) round 6PM. They were a nice
thing to be handed today!! For some reason a kind of better feeling
today than in Helsinki.
Can not explain it
Have tons to say to the boys - never really gets around to do that and
has always a stinky time as it comes
to chosing the item for signing.
But today it ended
with the digi pack of "Red, White And Crue". All covered in
silver pen writing of the hands of the boys. Thanks guys.
I also talked
today to a few guys that had their platinum day. It kind of
suprises me to hear all the stories from long time fans saying "this is
myfirst show or 2nd show ever"
or you know....
what is it they have not really done too much / risked or fought too
much for to see the band? Hard at times for
me to understand but then again I am a serious fucked up individual
so.......thats my excuse. I am probably over
doing it.
What can I say? I am hooked in
this Mötley world.
A rock n roll drug
adict. Not on crack -
coke or other shit. The drug is spelled C-R-U-E!! That drug is not
just heavy priced but about to take your focus, time and money !!
Crüed for life -
cant deal with it - the get the fuck out of my face. This drug is just
as tough to keep up with to reach personal satisfaction as the rest of
the drugs in the "catalogue".
6.38PM Oslo time
we were picked up by a staff worker that took us to the door for the
entrence of the meet n greet. Marguerite - sweet
girl was again taken care of us all. "you again?" ... Yes baby and it is
really gonna be more shortly. Laid down the
facts and rules and on it went. The band came in
and we started living up.
I still want this cool leather jacket fully signed - but not today. Have desided for it to be done in London England next week-end ...That will then be the retirement day for the jacket. Will not use it after a signiong. Fuck NO!!!!
On the other jacket dream about Tommy wearing it
on a shot - I asked and guess what the man said!! "Sure Ill be happy to - no problem".
Sixx again was so shit cool to me. Feels like he
is on a look out . Sorry sounds so fucked .. but I think he by now
knows how apreciated I am for all he does and have done for me since the
B.O.D. days too.
Photos were taken and Tommy held up the jacket
afterwards and said "sweet this one. Nice quality too. Youre the shit my
brother in name" Again over so shit fast still wished for them
xtra ten minutes. Some things are just over before you know it in life . There for always put yourself in the center of
your excistence. You can be gone before you know it. Dont settle with shitty secend be first!!
skip what hurts you and search for the gold. What ever that may be.
In between shots at the meet n greet Nikki was
drawing and signing some table tish and I desided after the last one
was done to ask for it. Another fucker got me there. 3 seconds ahead of
me Marguerite gave it to this guy. Shit .... Gone it was ..
Out again to the streets and then in to the arena.
Shitty 2 opening bands but then the 3rd one from Finlnad.. Nightwish
went on.
Really special music. Look into it. It was great.
so different. Unlike almost anything. During the show of
Crüe - again no huge screens, Tommy solo and more. It was and seems to
be a European stripped version of the US. Nikki even
mentiend that he last year in the same arena had been there with a
different band - never thought I`d hear that.
Ratings: from one
to ten.Ten top..One stinker...
Helsinki - 8,5
Turku - 9
Oslo - 8
A few misses and
wrong playing took the 9 to an 8.
But still shit
good. No doubts about it. Another city another smashed bass and another
hard long day of rock n roll. BabyC - Im fucked
here too. Also Oslo brought
me to the point of no ease to mind. Thinking too much
- missing too much. Will never learn to realx bout stuff thats heartfelt
for me. Tough. Even this
could turn into a SICK LOVE SONG!!!!! Last Scandinavian
gig tomorrow - Sweden here we come.... Much Love Tommy
9th of June 2005
Alright fuckers - a good nite sleep (NOT!!!) and straight to the Turku harbour. A cruise - going seaborn. For a long ten hours we sail from Finland to Stockholm Sweden!!
We had the pleasure of crossing the water with
Black Label S.... onboard. Hell yes..
Mr. Sixx string ZAKK WILDE and his band. Neat xtra bonus....
So also onboard a good handfull of Swedish fans
that attended the
Turku show and most likely going home from here. Had a longer chat today outdoors onboard in the
summer sun with
each of my travelling companiens seperately. This is so two very different individuals - my
fear got kind realized here.
Trouble brueing in paradise. I just couldn`t let it in. This is was and will be
MY personal trip as long
as I am on the road with the Crue.
Some may wonder what was up or what makes me post this ... I simply do cause I can post every god damn shit I please. And because it after all seemed to be a rather huge impact on my Scandinavian trip.
Okay enough of the bad shit. They are asked to solve it - if they wont its
their choice. No regrets in having either with me -
just very different reasons and focus for all of us
I am sold I am inked for life I am here PURELY for the CRUE and its a thing like
I posted the other day no one shall be aloud to take away from me.
I am honouring the band that has given me 20 some years of cool living. Hard living and especially hard times in every sence of what ever . But FUCK THAT ... the pain poorness and tears has all been worth it !!!!! Feels like Sixx is taking care of me almost - I thank you MR. SIXX!!!! You have absolutely no idea.
Thanks for the cool words, acknowledge, help, and
all... you know what Im sayin`!!
To the guys on the tour the fans I have met - dont
be strangers - I love you all....a friendship is being built and it can last a life
time if we are carefull.
No one of the ordinary people understands this boy
(ME) but hey...I do not need to have them reaching that point. I
am too deap for too many . And thats a fact!!!
The Turku and Helsinki news papers have been
bought so I leave
Finland only sad in mind cause I have so many friends there ...to
Claudia Carnal www.claudiacarnal.dk
thank you for the up front and deaply personal talk we shared - thanks for
coffee and breakfast...I know we will share a great deal in the future.
Now Stockholm in sight so one more sleep over in
the Swedish and then
early 7 AM train from Stockholm to the capital of Norway -
Oslo for the next show coming on tomorrow night in Spektrum. Till
then......Behave - be good be loved and gather energy for a
rocking Crüe.
Another ride on the wildside.
Fuck yeeeeessssssssss.................
Dig it!!!
Tomster
8th of June 2005,
Another day - a
new show a new city. BabyC - still all
over my brains....Last night fucking
awesome....Remember a few
blocks away the June of 2004 Sixx was in this city of Helsinki too. Brides was
the name then now Crüe. Still emotional thinking about it. Sitting here on a
train. Left Helsinki for Turku!!! 2 hours ride.
Thinking about all
the cool fans and new found perhaps life long contacts ... never know. All from either
Finland or Sweden. Super fucking cool.
I have to say they
all treated me with respect that is beyond belief.
Like I was the fucking rock star. Thanks guys....
most of them had seen the web here .. and for that support I thank you
all. You rule brothers
and sisters. Dont be strangers
now ...stay in touch and promise me ... be good to yourselves!!!
Daniel my friend -
I saw how moved you were in Helsinki at the meet n greet. Your life dream
came true yesterday see you later in the day in Turku.
Elysee Arena - Out
in the middle of nowhere.
Also this city was filled with bad english speaking finish masses but
they did their best to be helpfull and the language of ROCK N ROLL is amazing sometimes. we all connected - clicked and had a blast outdoors before the shit started.
Ohhh by the way on
my way to the meet n greet yesterday
I saw a small sized poster that one guy got fully signed and
the poster hang in the backstage area and I was so close to ripping it
...What do you know -
today in Turku I found it at a record store ..
I asked and offered to get this one .. and I DID!! For it I bought
yet another copy of the digi pack "Red, White and Crue" album for getting it
signed tomorrow in Oslo Norway.
One of my
travelling friends Pearl is psycked today!!
I dont know how this will sound but she actually took this trip in the
first place
ONLY cause she LOVES the finish support act Private Line. Guess what? She
met the singer yesterday.
Got the band except the drummer today and all sorts of gifts from them.. FUCKING AWESOME!!!
Congrats - I know what it feels like ...Been there done
that too...I too was shit
nervous back in the days .... now I am only shitting bricks!!
Not so hard anymore. LOL LOL
It truely was a
great thing to see her get that dream fullfilled.
What else?
On myself - and Crue - again before the show
I met most of the ones from Helsinki. All fucked up and
drunk thats what the finish are like....LOL...
Love you all you
bad ass northern sickness..
Okay show starts -
so emotional (again) teary, hot, chills, you name it. I can not start to
tell you how moved I have been over this second chance of the tour. Really good. Vince
was moved again....I think he may be
moved far more than what we know. Just the thought
of it makes me smile wide. Welcome back to
the family Vince. And hats off to you. I love what you
give on this tour. God only knows how much you have
trained in all areas for doing this.!!
Speaking of
"tipping the hat" I would give my right arm for what Mars does. Mick I have
several platinum tix left and I will make sure that you truely
understand how smiling teary and overwelmed I am to see you do what you do. I dont give a ratts ass what you hear from other people . I envy your doings and I LOVE the fact that you in my mind are the one of you all that seems the sharpest!!! Love the shit.. You are the man Mick dont let anyone tell you differently. You are on this tour so far (in Europe) more than 25 % of the Crue ... sorry guys he is...
I saw as many of
you know, the band in the USA a few months back
and should I have to put a number from a scale on Mick from then till
the tour here right and now he has moved to be and look 10
times better. He makes me cry in happiness.
With a wide smile at the same time.
Turku show proved
that the name Mötley Crüe IS big and alive in Finland. They will
absolutely be back in 2006 - no doubt!! Ohhh yeahhh... Welcome home sweet
home ...you know Im a dreamer . BabyC - you are
missed already...

7th of June 2005
Back at the hotel
.(grrr) Helsinki in
FLAMES!!! Burned down by the Mötley`s . Arrived with
troubled travelling tickets and other ongoing subjects were fucked.
Now fixed and
thank god for that!!! I have my balance
in order and I am on a roll... Nothing can stop
me as written last night. This is my time now. Fuck the ordinary
- this is my living and this is my world where not too many get to fully
understand the seriousness in my natural and heartfelt passion!!
BabyC - soon now -
soon!!! BabyC(rue).
I took and did
what was needed before heading to the arena. Absolutely amazed
by the nakedness of Helsinki. Naked city. Not a single
poster or anything anywhere of the band or about the show. I guess there has
been plenty already and the show is sold out too
so why make any more PR on it. It all probably
sold itself big time.
So.... First arena
show in Europe since 1989...How was it?
Well...started at
5PM got my PLATINUM - thanks a fucking bunch SIXX!!!! Waited till 6PM as
first band hit the stage - the home boys of Private Line.
I have had the pleasure of seeing them live 2 or 3 times already
and have a good feeling about this band. They can make it
.. for sure. Go Sammy !!! Fucking kill em all.
I did not see them
tonight since they simply were on as we met the Crüe. 14 in total. So
not a full 25 tix was sold to the bare 400$ as they were up.
-In comes Mars
first. He brought tears to my eyes.
I have now after so log seen him again. He is the sweetest
of sweet. Fuck me that man deserves the world. He is too awesome. He later on in
concert that night was THE ONE that fucking blew my head off. He is 20 times
better and seems 20 times stronger than on the first leg of the
USA tour earlier this year. Fuck Mick WAS Crüe in Helsinki.
Fuck YES!!!! Way
to go Mick. I fucking love you man. I aproached them
for my signing, handshake and all. Passed Sixx as he said "
Tom how you been"
Vince going "you
know this guy". Loved it. Ego again. Told you mutha fuckers. Sixx had not
really seen my latest (now older) tattoos but went fucking over the top
- truely amazed. He loved his own right arm portrait a lot. "thats fucking bad ass" to quote the master. Sixx -. you`re right. Its bad ass......
The meet n greet
was kind of over before really getting started. For all the ones
in the USA that have been dissapointed. Here in Europe
- no signed tourbook + one item.
It was either
or...Plus - No
soundcheck either. No solo band
member photo of choice .. whole band or nothing.
Loved it but so
quickly over .. and FUCK me .. as the camera
snapped the 2nd shot - I blinked .. way to go you fucking dick!!! I will have my
revenge - more platinum's to come. Only one thing to
say - get born as a female beauty and you get all the advanges!!!! Mom ... why a
boy!! why ... was the male sperms that much stronger damn it...
last guy got his
shit signed and I had my blown up 18x24 photos all live tour 2005
shots . ... now forever signed and linked to the
tattooed memos loaded in my brains.
The show later on:
Okay it was a
scrapped but still cool version of the US one. It rocked.
Awesome, lively, cooking, boiling - cool!!! Simply cool. But they had
dropped the " Without You", "Glitter", "If I Die 2morrow" and the Tommy
solo, plus the tent and the choppers. Also - there was a
straight through set NO 10 mins breaks like in the USA.
Full steam .. and
teary moments.. Vince cried during "Home Sweet Home"... So moving ..... How a grown boy
can cry over a grown boys performance .. is ... without words. I cried too not
ashamed to admit it!!! Sixx and Crüe has
a popularity in Helsinki or Finland that you have to witness to fully
understand I guess. I say no more....
Thanks Sixx, Lee,
Neil and Mars....
From my heart -
THANK YOU!!!!
Tommy
6th of June 2005

June 4th and 5th 2005
BabyC. Im all
wrappd up with no place to go. Now what the fuck
does that mean???
Its a long story and would blow the limits to the site so in short!!!
Im in heaven!!!
I am here in
Germany and it is a sick live tour just starting.... MÖTLEY FUCKING
CRÜE HAS LANDED!!!! I am at the FIRST show on this European tour,.
IT is the ROCK AM RING!!!! Crue on for 70 mninutes from 6.20 PM.
Set list: Shout At
The Devil, Live Wire, Wild Side, Louder Than Hell, Girls Girls Girls,
Dr Feelgood, Looks That Kill, Red Hot, Primal Scream, Kickstart My
Herat, Anarchy In The UK, so there so....
How was it? Well
WET!!!
In many ways . Could have had an orgasm ... but settles with pouring rain. My mind was
else where at times .. but Crue made me share a tear too.
Always does -
fucking as if it was always the last time I would see them.
BabyC - I know is
sitting somewhere going "wonder how is it? Wonder what he`s up to? Wonder how and why
THIS is so hard to go through!!
My thoughts too.. Love for something one does this to you.
Musical passion is .undescribeable. "I DONT have ugly
feet though"... UPS where did that one come from. Tommy you smart
ass....now You're gonna get it.
Back to the Mötleys right?!!!! The night has been talked about and waited for ... forever. I think the shows on the festival were weird and a little sad for a tour starter on European ground. I would say it is revenge time Tuesday in HELSINKI!!! Burn that fucker to the ground. Arenas all over will be left in ashes - period!!!
3 more month and the show of shows can be
happening.
What show ? Not telling!!! US thing. What can possibly top a Crue night?
Well.. a Crue night with xtras..
Thats fucking what!!! You crackers out there see you in Europe somewhere
shortly!!! Till then - Primal Scream - BABY!!!!
Hugs kisses to you all (too)
