Not many bands in the history of rock music have stirred up as much chaos as American glam metal act MÖTLEY CRÜE. In part 1 of this report, I examined vocalist Vince Neil‘s infamous 1984 drunk driving crash that killed drummer “Razzle” of HANOI ROCKS (that has since been mysteriously wiped clean from TMD’s database). This new installment will be a further look into the darkest stories behind the Crue. (Warning: GRAPHIC CONTENT)
In 2019, during promotion for The Dirt movie, MÖTLEY CRÜE’s Nikki Sixx told Rolling Stone he recalled a story in the band’s 2001 memoir The Dirt where the bassist participated in a sexual assault during a party, that included him tricking the same woman into having sex with the group’s drummer Tommy Lee in a closet, while thinking it was still Sixx.
Although the incident was not included in the film, director Jeff Tremaine responded to it when asked by Rolling Stone, saying, “It gets dark. The book has dark moments in it. I think a lot of these stories back then did. The rock & roll lifestyle was a crazy time back then.”
“I was in a zone, though, and in that zone, consequences did not exist. Besides, I was capable of sinking even lower than that.”
– Nikki Sixx
The bassist now claims that the story may not have happened the way it was recounted in the book. However, in a later statement, he explained that “his past struggles with drugs and alcohol may have led to a complete fabrication of the facts.”
Is Sixx simply trying to cover up an even darker secret? It sure seems that way. For the depths of depravity that he and his Crue band mates experienced during the eighties is no mystery to those closest to them.
“They were summoning demons.”
– Al Bowman
The claims of the Crue participating in hardcore devil worshipping came from former Crue limo driver, Al Bowman. In an exclusive interview he did with The Opperman Report, Bowman revealed that he would be assigned to look for “virgin groupies” for the 80s rockstars, drive them to and from drug deals, and even drop them off at Satanic ceremonies.
Did the Crue’s limo driver really drop off ‘Virgin groupies’ at the Crue’s satanic ceremonies?
According to The Sun, every night Bowman would go out on the prowl in his limo around Hollywood looking for young groupies to bring to the Crue, who asked him to specifically bring them virgins.
“They were particularly fond of virgins – and would ask him to go find them so they could “pop their cherries.” They were always on the hunt for virgins,” Al Bowman said.
“That was my job when I drove on the Shout at the Devil tour when they were playing with Black Sabbath – they would always say, ‘Al go see if there’s any groupies out there who are are virgins and bring them to us. We want them’. They just wanted to pop their cherries.”
“I remember one night in Bakersfield during that tour I got two virgins for Nikki and Vince and then they got me my own hotel room as a thank you.”
“That was a fun night.”
Most importantly, Al remembers they used to have a dark side.
He claims to have taken members of the band to “creepy ceremonies and rituals around Los Angeles.”
Al says bassist Nikki Sixx was particularly interested in the “dark arts” and he once gave him and famous occultist Anton LaVey, who founded the Church of Satan, a ride to “a strange ceremony at a house behind the famous Whisky A Go Go nightclub in Hollywood.”
“I remember them having an interest in Satanic rituals and I used to take them to these weird parties at an old mansion in Hollywood where there’d be people doing all kinds of creepy stuff.”
“Nikki was very much into the black arts, Aleister Crowley, incantations, witchcraft, all of that stuff.
“I drove him once with Anton LaVey and they were doing these weird chants.
“I had an intercom system so if they put up the divider in the limo I would just turned on the intercom and listen to everything that was going on. So I heard everything they were talking about. Then I dropped them at this strange house covered in ivy behind the Whisky A Go Go.”
“There was some weird ceremony there and it was full of up-and-coming actresses and they were all into this stuff.
“They were in circles and there were candles and blood and horse hair – all kinds of weird stuff.
“At the time I just thought ‘Ah it’s Hollywood – it’s all a big horror show anyway’.
“I said, ‘You guys making a horror movie about witchcraft or something?’ But it seemed like serious business for them.
“Nikki would call on spiritual forces. I remember asking him, ‘What’s the deal with all this stuff? Are you trying to call on angels from heaven to guide the band?’
“He said, ‘No I’m trying to conjure up demons from hell to guide the band.‘
EX-MOTLEY CRUE LIMO DRIVER CLAIMS VINCE NEIL IS DRINKING HIMSELF TO DEATH
Guitarist Mick Mars of the Crue once described his band as “demonic, that’s what we are.” (Heavy Metal Times, May 1983).
Nikki Sixx referring to their “Shout at the Devil” stage show commented, “We have skulls, pentagrams, and all kinds of satanic symbols on stage …. I’ve always flirted with the devil.”
These ‘sick satanic meetings’ in Hollywood homes are still going down today but are run by Madonna’s Kabbalah cult, where word is that they’ve gotten worse than ever, according to the “Judiciary report” they are “arranging rapes, pedophilia, and human sacrifices in commissioning the murders of others in and outside the industry.”
“Since that time nothing but calamity and tragedy has followed the Crue. They went to the Hollywood satanic parties to “conjure up demons from hell to guide the band” and it let the devil loose in their lives. Their careers went downhill, there were weird freak accidents, strange deaths and financial ruin.”
When discussing the accuracy of The Dirt film, and his role with the band Al Bowman said:
“I mean some of the sexual stuff they used to get up to was kind of disgusting but I guess there’s only so much you can fit into 90 minutes.
“I drove them for about five years, I became like a fifth member of the band. I would take them to buy drugs, to pick up girls, to rescue them when they had partied too hard – they’d call me at all hours. They called me ‘Al the rock-n-roll limo man.’”
“I mean we’re all from the street, and every member of this band has been in and out of jail many times.”
